10 years sober, I bring my experience as a rehab recovery coach & actor to explore addiction, alcoholism, recovery, mental health & the creative journey. Featured in The Week's Ultimate Podcast List of 2024, I know first-hand rock bottom moments can be the greatest teacher & a springboard for a beautiful life. Remember, you don’t have to lose everything or wait to hit 'bottom' to recover — it’s simply when you can't ignore the pain anymore. I share my journey & interview people who’ve survived & thrived through adversity, sharing hard-earned lessons to remind others there is hope & a way out.

Walking Away From Crack. School of Rock Bottom Thought #23: Jennifer Joseph

What does it really take to walk away from crack cocaine after 15 years? In this next quick thought, I go back to an incredible conversation with Jennifer Joseph - you’ll hear the truth of someone who not only used but was deeply embedded in that world—making it, distributing it, and living in constant danger. And yet, one life-changing choice set them free.

At 16, actor Jennifer Joseph was coerced into a life of drug dealing. Quickly she rised to the very top and was known as The General, travelling the world as a generator and importer of narcotics - with connections to all the major players including "The Cocaine Godmother" Giselda Blanco. Jen thought she was invincible, whilst also battling a daily crack addiction and, eventually, was caught at Gatwick airport with hundreds of thousands of pounds of marijuana and was sent to prison at aged 39.
