Show Notes

Born in Alabama to parents who formerly struggled with addiction, Michael’s own addiction came to a head when he was a teenager. His first treatment program pulled him away from his education and his peers at age 16. After that, Michael struggled to feel like he could succeed both in high school and in college, until his journey with sobriety truly began in his early twenties. Tune in to today’s episode to hear how Michael eventually found lasting freedom from addiction, and how he is now using his life experiences to give back and help others.
