Their tales are raw and unfiltered, offering a genuine look at the harsh realities of addiction. Yet, what stands out is their resilience and the incredible turnaround they have achieved.

They discuss the hurdles they've faced in running a business while maintaining their recovery, emphasizing the importance of surrounding oneself with supportive, positive influences.
