In this episode, I share the first part of my story and what life looked like before I found my purpose.

I talk about how my addiction started at a young age, the environments I was in, and how those patterns developed over time. This includes early exposure, becoming fully addicted, and living a double life while still trying to function.

For a long time, I didn’t feel like I had a reason to change. I was living day by day without direction, which made it easy to stay stuck in the same cycles.

This episode focuses on the buildup — not the recovery. In the next episode, I’ll share what changed and what led me to start making different decisions.
