Wayne Ray: From Struggles to Strength at The Launch Pad

When somebody reaches out for help, we want to grab that hand, because in their lifetime it's rare that they're going to get to the point: okay, all right, I really want to stop now.
Ever wondered how a personal battle with addiction can turn into a mission to help others? Meet Wayne Ray, the founder of The Launch Pad, who joins host Mark Marcley on 'Recovering Hope'. Wayne's journey from addiction to becoming a beacon of support for others is nothing short of inspiring. In this episode, Wayne opens up about his own struggles and how they fueled his passion for counseling those grappling with substance abuse.
He and Mark dive into the importance of community support, breaking down the stigma around addiction, and the vital resources available for those seeking help. They also touch on an often-overlooked topic: the link between ADHD and addiction. Wayne’s heartfelt message is clear - reaching out for help is a sign of strength, and there’s always a hand ready to pull you up. Tune in for a conversation filled with hope, encouragement, and practical advice for anyone touched by addiction.
