Chris Oppenheim: Ink, Sobriety, and Second Chances
That's, uh, I'm not used to hearing that.
What happens when you combine a passion for tattooing with a journey to sobriety? You get Chris 'Church' Oppenheim of Interstate Ink. In this episode of 'Showing Up With Asher Gottesman', Chris opens up about his battle with addiction and how he found his way to a sober life. But that's just the beginning.
Chris didn't just stop at getting clean; he built a unique business model that employs others in recovery, giving them a fresh start and a supportive environment to thrive in. It's a heartfelt conversation that dives into the nitty-gritty of overcoming personal demons and turning them into strengths. Chris also talks about his YouTube show and podcast, 'Broken Crayons', where he shares stories of hope and redemption.
If you're looking for an episode that mixes inspiration with raw honesty, this one's for you. It’s not just about tattoos; it's about second chances and the beauty of showing up for yourself and others.
