  • Epic podcast

    This podcast is so raw and vulnerable. Every episode I listen to moves me in a special way. I connect with so much of it being an addict myself. I also had the privilege of being a guest on LJ's podcast and you could feel his compassion. He has great energy, asks great questions, and is so vulnerable and raw, it's inspiring. Please listen. It will give you hope.

I come across relatable clips on TikTok that I want to watch but there’s no easy way to tell which episode they’re from. Even including the episode title or release date in the caption would make it much easier to find and listen to the f... more

  • So good!

    I found the podcast through an instagram video and was instantly obsessed. I alternate between this and Chasing Heroine. The stories of redemption are amazing! Please keep up the hard work. I’d love to see more women on the show.
