Travis Sackett: From Darkness to Redemption with a Canine Companion
I think that it's doing far more good than it could ever do harm, because I know a lot of people who...just think that they're pieces of crap because they're an addict, not realizing that.
Meet Travis Sackett, a man whose life story is a testament to resilience and the power of recovery. Growing up in an abusive household, Travis sought to make a difference by pursuing a career in criminal justice. But the reality of severe corruption in the system left him disillusioned. A training injury then led him down a dark path of opioid addiction and crime. Yet, Travis's journey didn't end there.
With the unwavering support of his canine companion, he clawed his way back to sobriety and purpose. In this episode of 'Recovery Revolution Live', Travis shares his remarkable story, shedding light on the need for dual diagnosis treatment and harm reduction policies within law enforcement. His memoir, 'My Life with Karma', aims to foster empathy for marginalized communities often overlooked by society.
Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that underscores the transformative power of human connection and the unyielding spirit of recovery.
