Dose of Reality
Real conversations about addiction, healing, and hope in our communities.
A podcast dedicated to honest, powerful conversations about the opioid crisis and the paths to recovery, hope, and healing.
Hosted by Abby, whose own life has been deeply shaped by the opioid epidemic, each episode dives into the real stories and voices often left out of the headlines.
