Addiction isn't like it has your name on it. It doesn't matter if you're rich, poor, whatever, right? I just love being able to like, when I talk to people, I've been through a lot of things that I can relate and help them with.
Rick Fulton’s story is a gripping tale of survival, resilience, and transformation. In this episode of 'Sober Motivation', Rick opens up about the profound challenges he faced from a very young age. Growing up without his father and enduring various forms of abuse between the ages of 3 and 6, Rick found himself in a constant struggle for attention and guidance.
