Episode Summary

Noah, my ATV guide in Alaska, joins me on this episode of Wisdom Shared. Last season, we heard from Noah's mom, Melissa, who talked about her sobriety journey. In this discussion, Noah courageously shares his difficult journey with pills. He nearly died. He offers advice, hope, and solidarity to others facing similar struggles. His powerful narrative underscores the transformative power of sharing personal experiences in the hopes of helping others.
