Eli Morris: Finding Hope in the Battle Against Addiction

If you do the right thing for the right reasons, with the right drive over time, and you're not gonna understand when that time at all, you're gonna sit back and realize where you finally got yourself and where, um, you are heading now.
Eli Morris takes the spotlight in this episode of 'Alter the Minds of Stigma', sharing his deeply personal journey through addiction and recovery. Hosted by Anthony Rivera and co-hosted by Najma Durrani, this episode dives into the real-life struggles Eli faced, starting from a young age.
