Real addicts can never be California Sober.
Ever wondered what 'California Sober' really means? In this eye-opening episode of Sober Exposure, host Jennifer Wylde sits down with Jeff Simone, a former pharmacist turned Dietary Supplement Advisor, to get the lowdown on this controversial trend. Jeff opens up about his own battle with addiction, sharing how he went from skimming opioids at work to enduring a grueling detox and ultimately finding his path to recovery.
He doesn't hold back when discussing why he believes 'California Sober'—a term for those who abstain from hard drugs but still use marijuana or alcohol—just doesn’t cut it for real addicts. The conversation dives deep into the opioid crisis, exploring the importance of individualized recovery plans and the dangers of substances like kratom. Jeff and Jennifer also touch on the impact of media and marketing on addiction, emphasizing the need for inner peace and quieting the mind during recovery.
With raw honesty and a sprinkle of humor, this episode is both enlightening and supportive, making it a must-listen for anyone affected by addiction or curious about different recovery approaches.
