I am in conversation with David Manheim who talks about how he struggled with heroin & weed addiction for over 20 years and how he turned his life around at 41. David is 8 years sober and has a very successful podcast called @DopeyPodcast which has over 17 million downloads and has helped thousands who are suffering from substance use. I just had to get David on the podcast and learn more about his extraordinary journey from addiction to recovery. We go deep into: - How people are initially drawn towards drugs - What addiction does to them and - We talk about the tumultuous path to recovery which most of the time is not a straight line! My one takeaway from this chat is the quote “Don't Stop Until The Miracle Happens” which applies to everything in life! Whatever you are doing or struggling with, if we don't give up and keep showing up, and keep pushing beyond our limits we will ultimately win!
