In this gripping episode of the Facing Addiction podcast, host Tyler Tisdale sits down with Patt Ochoa to explore his extraordinary journey from the depths of Skid Row to achieving emotional sobriety. Patt's story is a raw and unfiltered look into the life of someone who has faced immense adversity, including homelessness, survival sex work, and multiple instances of sexual assault. Yet, despite these harrowing experiences, Patt's narrative is one of resilience and transformation.
Growing up in an environment marked by his mother's own struggles with addiction, Patt found himself following a similar path.

Here, Patt faced unimaginable hardships that pushed him to the brink of despair. However, his story takes a turn when he decides to seek help and embarks on a journey towards recovery.
With the support of his mother and the structure provided by a 12-step fellowship, Patt begins to rebuild his life. He goes from being a broken individual to someone who now helps others in their own recovery journeys. Patt's experiences highlight the importance of support systems, self-reflection, and the power of change. His candid discussion with Tyler offers valuable insights into the struggles and triumphs that come with addiction recovery.
Whether you're looking for inspiration or seeking to understand the complexities of addiction, this episode is a compelling listen that underscores the possibility of redemption and hope.
