Before we dive in, I’d love to hear from you! Text me your stories or thoughts on kindness

Opioid Addiction is a worldwide issue that demands a national spotlight. In this episode of ChatAholic, I'm joined by author Cammie Wolf Rice, a frontline warrior in the fight, who is on a mission to educate people about the Opioid epidemic that began as the wonder drug being handed out to patients. 
What people were not told was that this drug marketed to help ease pain would lead to an American President declaring Opioid use as a public health emergency.Together, we dive deep into how she turned pain into purpose.

During this intimate conversation, Cammie speaks openly about losing her son Christopher to opioids; while educating us on the opioid epidemic and her organization, The Christopher Wolf Crusade. We also discuss her phenomenal book,The Flight, A Personal Journey Through The Opioid Epidemic.

Cammie's story of survival and her groundbreaking work to end addiction is a life-saving conversation you don't want to miss.
