In today's episode we emphasize the importance of bridging divides and fostering dialogue between different perspectives, recognizing the polarized nature of today's political climate. As well as the intersection of addiction, privilege, and healing.

This episode is a re-visited episode of one of my favorite Guests:

Addiction has always been an issue in the US. With the rise in fentanyl related deaths and increasing number of ads and commercials glamorizing alcohol and other substances addiction and substance abuse has become even more prevalent in today's society. This is why I am so happy to have today's guest addiction Specialist and interventionist Candy Finnigan. In this episode we’ll be discussing what has led Candy to where she is today.

Candy is an addiction specialist and interventionist that you may have seen on A&E’s Intervention. Having been 36 years sober herself Candy knows personally how hard the journey to recovery can be. That is the reason she has dedicated her life to helping others work through their addiction and recover.
