Kat Von D: From Tattoo Fame to Addiction Recovery on Dopey

I think the idea of wanting more than what you have can possess you. But I think when you start falling into spell work and the idea of manipulating the natural course of things for selfish needs, I don't think that's a good thing.

Ever wondered how a tattoo icon navigates the highs and lows of fame and addiction? In this episode of Dopey, Kat Von D—artist, author, and reality TV star—sits down with hosts Dave and Chris to share her gripping journey. Kat opens up about her meteoric rise in the tattoo world and the personal battles that followed. She dives into her struggles with cocaine and alcohol, revealing how these addictions took a toll on her life and career.

But it's not all dark; Kat also discusses her path to recovery, including therapy and prayer, which played pivotal roles in her healing process. Adding to the episode's richness, Aurora joins to celebrate her upcoming 7th year of sobriety, sharing her own experiences and milestones. And for a touch of the bizarre, there's a wild weed story from Rikers Island that you won't want to miss.

This episode is a blend of raw honesty, unexpected humor, and inspiring tales of redemption, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or curious about the resilience of the human spirit.
