From Chef to Recovery: Michael Watkins' Battle with Addiction

Luckily I didn't get as addicted to that, right. I haven't been this skinny since I was a middle school.
Ever wondered how a thriving culinary career can spiral into addiction? In this episode of 'This Pink Cloud', DJ Kelly Reverb and Chad LeMans chat with Michael Watkins, a chef whose life took a dramatic turn due to substance abuse. Michael opens up about how the high-pressure world of kitchens contributed to his addiction, revealing the snowball effect that took him from culinary heights to rock bottom.
He doesn't shy away from discussing the enablers who unknowingly fueled his habits and the crucial role of a strong support system in his journey to sobriety. Michael's candidness provides valuable warning signs of addiction and underscores the importance of quitting cold turkey for some. This episode isn't just about struggle; it's a testament to resilience and the possibility of turning one's life around.
Tune in for an inspiring story of hope and recovery that will resonate with anyone touched by addiction.
