I put that in my system, and it's Dr Jekyll, Mr Hyde, you know it literally takes over my midbrain, which is the survival part of my brain, and it shuts down all of my thinking, my cognitive thought process.

In this episode of 'High While Clean', host Eric McCoy sits down with Kenneth to uncover his journey from the depths of drug addiction and prison to a life filled with purpose and achievement.

He doesn't shy away from the gritty details, making his eventual triumph all the more inspiring. Kenneth's candid discussion about taking responsibility for his actions is a powerful reminder that change is possible, no matter how dire the circumstances. What sets this episode apart is Kenneth's poetic approach to sharing his story.
Each chapter of his life begins with a poem, adding a creative layer to his narrative. These poems serve as both an introduction and a reflection, making his message resonate even deeper.

His advice on not comparing one's rock bottom to others' is particularly poignant, reminding us that everyone's journey is unique.

Kenneth Carter III's transformation from pain to prosperity is a testament to the power of determination and self-belief.
