In this episode, Paris sits down with Conrad Tracey, founder of Addiction Coaching Australia an addiction coach who’s turned his lived experience into a lifeline for others. From battling childhood trauma and a double life selling drugs and guns to facing a $250K debt spiral and a meth addiction that nearly ended it all, Conrad’s story is one filled with many rock bottom moments, but instead of letting it define him, he chose to flip the script and build a life worth living. Now, Conrad helps people reclaim their lives and break free from the shackles of addiction. In this episode, he opens up about the pros and cons of traditional 12-step programs, sharing where they helped and where they came up short. We explore how Conrad’s unique approach takes recovery beyond just “getting clean” to actually creating a life you love. If you’re stuck in a cycle of addiction and feel like the traditional paths aren’t cutting it, this episode is for you. Conrad’s got the blueprint for breaking free and building a life you actually want to live.
