I had to steal to eat, I was written off by my family, and friends...I knew if I didn't change I was going to die.

In this gripping episode of 'Hard Knox Talks: Sober Stories. Real Talk.', Chris opens up about his journey from rock bottom to becoming a beacon of hope and change.

Whether you're struggling with addiction, supporting someone who is, or simply looking for a dose of inspiration, Chris's story offers valuable insights and hope.
