Wow, what an amazing episode we just listened too. We can hardly believe Robert Goodland is still with us and he really went through so very dark times. We think this story has it all, and really admire the outcome. Robert certainly went to the darkest depths, literally, and is now shining in the light of his new found life working with other trauma survivors, and horses! What a life he is leading! Thank you Robert!

S4 EP13: Kendall's Story - Overcoming Relentless Adversity!

David was a young, successful, high-flying executive, making his way to the top! First working for a record label in LA, he then fell into the business and marketing side of the  adult film industry! By his twenties, he had 'the cars, the girls, the houses, and the expensive watches', and he felt he had the world at his feet. Then came Heroin. David's story plays out like a real life Hollywood Movie, and as heroin addiction took hold, he would lose everything. His battle against the addiction, the desperate friends and family that tried to help, and the eventual jail time, all make for a survival story like nothing you have heard before.
CONTENT / TRIGGER WARNING: Heroin use and addiction.
