Despite having no familial history of substance misuse, Jay found himself in the throes of addiction, leading to profound personal and professional losses. This episode takes listeners through the depths of his despair, including a life-threatening car accident that served as his wake-up call. Through determination, the establishment of new habits, and the support of his community, Jay emerged from his struggles with renewed purpose. This powerful narrative not only highlights the indiscriminate nature of addiction but also illuminates the possibilities of recovery and redemption.
