Recovery is just a process of each day, you're taking some actions to make your life a little better than it was the day before.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life tangled in addiction into a beacon of hope for others? Meet Jake Bradshaw, a man whose journey is anything but ordinary. In this episode of 'Not Your Average IV User', host Max Liles sits down with Jake to unpack his incredible story. From growing up in a small town to navigating the murky waters of the dark web, Jake's path has been fraught with challenges.
Yet, he's emerged as a powerful voice in the fight against addiction. As the co-owner of Forward Health Ohio and the voice behind 'Humans of Addiction', Jake's work reaches far and wide. He's even collaborated with the New York Times on a project that shines a light on addiction and recovery. But it wasn't always smooth sailing. Jake's candid discussion includes his run-ins with the law, including being picked up by federal agents outside a 12-step meeting.
Through it all, he shares invaluable insights into the complexities of addiction, the importance of anonymity in recovery, and the struggles of tracking success rates in a population that's often hard to pin down. Whether you're battling addiction yourself, supporting a loved one, or just curious about the human spirit's resilience, this episode offers a raw, unfiltered look at what it takes to overcome and inspire.
