In this raw and heartfelt episode of Pondoff's Anonymous, co-host Jakob Miller opens up about his journey through addiction, recovery, and the life-changing moments in between. Chris Pondoff and Jeff Allen join Jakob as they tackle the chaos of childhood, learning disabilities, and the feeling of being different. The conversation is brutally honest, touching on alcohol, weed, and the slippery slope into harder substances like heroin.
They explore the mind games of addiction: denial, relapse, and the struggle to claw your way back. Fatherhood takes centre stage as they discuss how becoming a dad can change everything—or nothing—until you're ready to face your demons.

Jakob shares wisdom about recognising the early signs of relapse and the necessity of staying humble and teachable in recovery.
