This episode promises to enlighten listeners on the complexities of addiction, the journey toward self-discovery and healing, and the profound ways in which Kratom can alter lives for the better. Jennifer’s unfiltered honesty and perspective shed light on the need for greater understanding and research into Kratom’s therapeutic possibilities, advocating for its role in offering a dignified path to recovery and wellness.
