If the root of the disease is selfishness and self-centeredness, then I needed to be of service.
What happens when a teenager spirals into addiction and crime, only to emerge on the other side as a beacon of hope? Jordan Lee, now the Director of Marketing and Business Development for Deer Hollow Recovery, joins Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley on 'Project Recovery' to share his compelling story. Kicked out of school in middle school for drug possession, Jordan's teenage years were a whirlwind of selling drugs, homelessness, and addiction to hard substances.
His life took a turn when he decided to pursue recovery, influenced by an introduction to religion and the realization that he needed a change. Jordan also opens up about his encounters with the Mexican drug cartel while buying and selling pain medication, and how these dangerous interactions pushed him towards a lifetime of recovery.
He discusses the role of guilt, shame, and the importance of honesty in his journey, shedding light on how therapy and support groups played pivotal roles in his healing process. If you or someone you know is battling addiction, Jordan's story is a powerful reminder that recovery is always within reach.
