Willa White's Journey: From Addiction to Laughter on The Two Norries

If you've got the ability to get up out of the gutter and get back up on your feet...you know, and probably suffer with trauma.
Imagine standing on stage, making people laugh, while carrying the weight of a troubled past. That's exactly what Willa White does. In this episode of 'The Two Norries', hosts James Leonard and Timmy Long sit down with comedian and recovering addict Willa White for their first-ever live podcast. Willa opens up about his challenging upbringing, the trauma he faced, and his battle with addiction.
He doesn't shy away from discussing the dark times—homelessness, domestic abuse, and the mental health struggles that came with them. But Willa's story is also one of incredible resilience and hope. He talks about how he managed to turn his life around, using humor as a coping mechanism and a tool for recovery. James and Timmy add depth to the conversation by exploring the role of government in addiction prevention and the importance of vulnerability and emotional expression.
This episode isn't just about one man's journey; it's a broader discussion on the power of community, support, and the possibility of recovery. Whether you're dealing with addiction yourself, supporting a loved one, or simply interested in stories of human resilience, this episode offers a heartfelt and inspiring listen.
