From Addiction to Advocacy: Travis Sackett's Journey with Karma

I ended up putting everything that I had down the garbage disposal, going to Walgreens and basically getting myself set up to at-home detox, and I didn't know what it was going to look like. So at least she was taken care of and she endured The Three Days of hell with me and just kind of like a guardian angel, watched over me.
Ever wondered how someone can rise from the depths of addiction to become a beacon of hope for others? In this episode of 'The Way Out', hosts Charlie and Jason chat with Travis Sackett, author of 'My Life with Karma' and a dedicated recovery coach. Travis opens up about his tumultuous childhood, marked by an abusive father, which led him down a dark path of alcohol and OxyContin addiction.
His story is one of resilience and transformation, having nearly lost everything, including his job in law enforcement and his freedom, after spending time in jail. Yet, amidst the chaos, Travis found an unlikely savior in his rescue dog, Karma. Their bond became a cornerstone in his recovery journey. Now thriving in sobriety, Travis uses his experiences to help others navigate their own paths to recovery.
This episode covers a range of vital topics like the impact of childhood trauma on addiction, the dangers of switching addictions, and the crucial role of community support. Travis also shares his insights on managing mental health issues like anxiety and depression, the transformative power of the 12-step program, and the importance of honesty and gratitude in recovery. If you're looking for a story that combines raw honesty with inspiration, this episode is a must-listen.
