George's story begins at 16 when he started using drugs to cope with the insecurity of discovering he was gay.

In prison, George experienced his first spiritual awakening, setting him on the path to recovery. He shares how spirituality and the power of intention played crucial roles in his transformation. George also opens up about working through the 12 steps, overcoming shame, and learning to live authentically. His story is not just about quitting drugs; it's about finding a new way to live with purpose and integrity.
