Ep. 45 - I Died Before I Recovered with Josh Hampton
Adam is back East (again) and starts his new job at MGM Springfield. Battling with anxiety early in his life, Josh Hampton eventually turned to pills and became a self-proclaimed "dope boy." The only problem, instead of selling the product, he was using. He eventually became addicted which led to years of incarceration and chaos. Along the way, gambling crept into his life, compounding the damage. But today, Josh is in recovery - using his lived experience to help others as the Problem Gambling Coordinator at Sunrise Community for Recovery and Wellness in Asheville, NC.
