CCAR Communications Manager, Tom Russo, joins our hosts on this episode. Tom shares how exposure to substance use and criminality gradually came to define his own behavior and his life. We hear the story of a person who was able to evade consequences for some time until the consequences he received put his life on hold, culminating in a four year prison sentence. A moving depiction of what "wearing the mask" can do to a person and the healing that follows once we re-discover the best parts of ourselves through the recovery process. ----Across the Web----
