I was this character that I played on the radio. It's tough because you've been so unauthentic your entire life.
Ever wondered how the vibrant party culture of New Orleans could lead someone down a dark path of addiction? In this episode of 'Project Recovery', Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley sit down with Bo Walker, a Radio DJ and Program Staff at Chateau Recovery, to explore his journey from the lively streets of New Orleans to the challenging road of recovery.
Bo candidly shares how the city's party scene influenced his early drinking habits, which quickly spiraled out of control as he climbed the ranks in his radio career. Success brought more than just fame; it amplified his addiction, leading him to a breaking point. Bo's story is not just about hitting rock bottom but also about the power of therapy and accountability in finding a way back.
He opens up about the struggle to maintain authenticity while being in the public eye, creating a persona that ultimately left him feeling empty. Through therapy, Bo began to unpack the core issues driving his addiction and learned the importance of patience and perseverance in recovery. His journey underscores the value of addressing deep-seated issues and taking life one day at a time.
Tune in to hear Bo's inspiring tale of transformation and gain insights into the recovery process from someone who has lived it.
