A death of somebody doesn't have to be the end of you. It can be the beginning of something beautiful.
How do you rebuild your life after unimaginable loss? Jeff Johnston knows this struggle all too well. In this episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast, host Duane Osterlind sits down with Jeff to discuss his powerful journey through grief and recovery. Jeff lost his eldest son to fentanyl poisoning and heroin overdose, and later his wife to addiction. These devastating events pushed him to confront his own struggles with alcoholism and compulsive gambling, which he had battled since eighth grade.
Jeff's story is a raw and honest look at the depths of despair and the resilience required to climb out of it. He talks about his 'living undeterred' tour, a mission to inspire others to take control of their lives despite their pain. Throughout the conversation, Duane offers insights into the therapeutic benefits of accountability and sobriety, emphasizing that everyone's grief is unique but recovery is possible.
This episode is a testament to the human spirit's ability to endure and find hope even in the darkest times. If you're facing your own struggles or supporting someone who is, Jeff's story might be the beacon of hope you need.
