Lastly, Todd emphasizes the importance of giving back.
By supporting others on their recovery journeys, he found a renewed sense of purpose and fulfillment. His experiences serve as a powerful reminder that no matter how deep the abyss, there is always a way out, and your story could be the lifeline someone else needs. If you're seeking inspiration or struggling with addiction yourself, Todd's journey offers valuable insights and hope.
