I get a ton of questions about what a 12 step program is and how to work one. I'm not sure I have the answer to that, but I can share what has worked for me along the way and what I have learned. Having a sponsor and working a program has been huge for me in taking my recovery and my life to the next level, and I know it can do the same for you. All you have to do is just show up and do the work.

-Shane

Nathan Rich was born in Hollywood to a Scientologist family. After being sent to the infamously abusive Mace-Kingsley Ranch twice, he escaped and was disowned by his family. He spent seven years as a homeless drug addict before turning his life around. Nathan appeared on "Scientology and the Aftermath" produced by ex-scientoligist and actress Leah Remini, and has since written a memoir called Scythe Tleppo: My Survival of a Cult, Abandonment, Addiction and Homelessness.
