God Took Me to Las Vegas
My mission with the God Took Me to Las Vegas podcast is to save lives and allow the person to Reveal the Lifestyle Champion within them.There are many different types of recovery programs, they all are aimed at helping those battling substance use disorders to transition from being harmed to being clean and sober. Anyone who’s battling a compulsive or destructive behavior wants to be healthy and they desire to live a happy and productive life. Sadly, only 1 in 10 Americans with a substance use disorder receives treatment. Why?Because it’s not safe to come forward and admit your challenges. The stigma is fueling an American public health crisis and we need to “Crush the Stigma!”Substance use disorders are associated with discrimination and social disapproval – more than any medical condition. These same people are often isolated, outcast, and even imprisoned. Stigma isolates people, it discourages them from seeking help, and even leads some medical providers to resist delivering evidence-based treatment services.

Episode 109 - Interview with Thomas White, founder of Exact Nature Botanicals,
Exact Nature Botanicals, LLC is run by recovering alcoholic and addict Thomas White and his son Daniel, who is also in recovery. Exact Nature’s entire reason for being—its raison d'être—is to provide addicts and alcoholics with safe, healthy, and effective supplements in their journey in sobriety.

Thomas knows all too well what it’s like to be in the grip of addiction. For more than twenty years, he was a disheartened addict and alcoholic with two DUIs on his record, a drinking habit getting progressively worse, and marriage strained to the limit because of it. He was slipping into darkness and feeling hopeless, helpless, and ashamed. It’s not that he didn’t want to stop; he couldn’t.
Thomas finally hit rock bottom and sought treatment. And even then, he didn’t get sober right away, relapsing five times during the year following his stint in rehab, before finally being able to put down the drink and drugs.
Now, he’s proud to say, he has thirteen years of sobriety under his belt. And it’s Thomas’ own struggle and loss that’s at the root of Exact Nature’s singular mission. Thomas always said that if there was a pill to help him with his addiction, he’d take it. It’s this hope that forms the foundation of Exact Nature Botanicals.
Professionally speaking, Thomas spent his pre-Exact Nature career in marketing communications, first at the corporate level (for Seagram’s, not ironically), then for the Peace Corps (first as a volunteer in Botswana, then as the agency’s press secretary in Washington, DC), and in recent years as the chief marketing officer for several universities.
