In this episode of 'Voices From Rock Bottom', DJ Prof B sits down with Juliette and Joe, two of her former students, to unpack their experiences. Juliette opens up about the profound impact of losing her mother to cancer at just 19, and how her mother's unwavering strength continues to inspire her recovery journey.

Together, they discuss the often overlooked pressures young adults face, from social media's distorted reality to the ever-present lure of substance use as an escape. DJ Prof B provides a compassionate backdrop, emphasizing the importance of seeking help and dismantling stereotypes around addiction. This episode is a heartfelt exploration of resilience, self-discovery, and the power of community support.
Whether you're a student, a parent, or someone in recovery, Juliette and Joe's stories offer valuable insights and a reminder that it's okay to ask for help.
