Rewriting the Narrative: Tony Hoffman on Addiction Stigma

The old school way of thinking when it comes to addiction lack compassion and empathy. It's build on the idea that addicts lack willpower and completely overlooks the source of what lead the addict into using in the first place.
Picture this: you're struggling with addiction, and instead of receiving understanding, you're met with judgment. In this episode of 'One Choice', Tony Hoffman and his guest KP tackle the age-old stigma surrounding addiction. They dive into how outdated views on addiction often lack compassion and fail to consider the deeper issues that lead someone down this path.
Tony, a former professional BMX racer and 2016 Rio Olympic Games coach, shares his own journey from addiction and homelessness to recovery and success. He and KP swap stories that shed light on the real struggles behind addiction, aiming to shift the conversation towards empathy and understanding. If you're looking for a fresh perspective on addiction or seeking a dose of hope and motivation, this episode is a must-listen.
Tony's candid storytelling and heartfelt advice might just be the spark you need to see addiction in a new light and make that one choice towards a better life.
