Part of my mission is really to dispel the shame that addiction survivors suffer, and I think I really want to remind them: anyone that comes to the other side of that and survives it can be such an inspiration.
Imagine being at the pinnacle of success—winning gold medals, gracing the pages of GQ, and training celebrities—only to find yourself grappling with addiction.
