We drink alcohol to escape our reality.
We use drugs to escape our reality.
I explore the trauma and mental health problems that are the reasons for that need to escape.
In this podcast, I interview guests that have gone through hell and back but kept going. In turn, they have transformed into human beings who love themselves, warts and all. Let me share with you how we manage to live a life that most of us could not even dream of in the midst of our trauma.
The past does not equal the future. Every second gives you a new opportunity for change, and only you determine the right direction in your life.
