I'm not going to share other people's stories, but I definitely can share my own, and it's hard. And so I look at: on one hand it's our responsibility to educate people about that, that it is a superpower, but the other thing you said was how it's empowering the vast amount of people that were scared to share their story, and once they did, it almost opened up a whole other level of vulnerability and connection with people that they had known forever.
Imagine moving from a cozy life in Canada to the unfamiliar streets of Waco, Texas, and then North Carolina, only to be banished from the U.S. That's just the beginning of Brad McLeod's gripping story. In this episode of 'The High Cost of Anonymity', Brad opens up about his tumultuous journey through addiction, mental health struggles, and ultimately, finding his purpose.
From his early days of criminal behavior and being locked in rehab at 17 without ever using drugs, to his battle with pill addiction that spiraled into heroin and methadone use, Brad's story is one of resilience and redemption. He even faced betrayal from a friend that led to his arrest three years later. But Brad didn't let these challenges define him.
Today, he makes a significant impact on the recovery community through initiatives like Sober Motivation and the recovery app, Your Sober Buddy. He talks candidly about the importance of sharing your story to help others and build meaningful connections. Brad's experiences highlight how family dynamics and trauma can shape mental health and addiction, and he shares practical tips for overcoming obstacles and seeking support.
If you're looking for a tale of perseverance and the power of vulnerability, Brad McLeod's journey is a must-listen.
