James English: Rising Above Gambling Addiction with DJ Fat Tony

I wake up from those dreams and I think, thank god I'm not doing that stuff. You know we go to a place whenever I'm tired or whatever. But I can wake up in the morning and think Today's A Really Good Day to destroy my life by cheating on my partner or messaging someone or any of that stuff.

James opens up about the dark days when his addiction controlled his life, making every day a struggle for survival.
But he didn't just stop there; he shares how he found a new purpose and a way to use his talents to help others. Through candid conversation, James talks about the highs and lows of addiction, the criticism he faced, and how he always held onto the belief that he was fundamentally a good person.
