Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around after years of addiction? In this episode of The Jaywalker Podcast, Peter H. opens up about his incredible journey from being a nineteen-year-old addict to earning multiple degrees and building a career in computer science. Hosted by Stefan, Jackson, and Brendon, this conversation is packed with raw honesty and hope. Peter's story begins with his first encounter with opiates at just twelve years old.
His path wasn't easy, but with the support of the recovery community and a higher power, he managed to overcome his addiction. The episode dives deep into the challenges he faced, the stress he had to manage, and the unwavering commitment required to maintain long-term sobriety. But it's not just about Peter's personal battles. The discussion also touches on the broader impact of addiction on family and friends, shedding light on how his recovery journey affected those around him.

Whether you're in recovery yourself, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in the complexities of addiction, Peter's journey offers valuable insights and inspiration.
