Imagine blending the raw energy of rock music with the healing journey of recovery.

Todd shares his own experiences, emphasizing the importance of community and support in overcoming addiction. This episode is a rollercoaster of emotions, filled with laughter, heartfelt moments, and inspiring stories of resilience.
