They don't just talk about it; they live it. With a mix of humor and heartfelt honesty, they share their own journeys of acknowledging powerlessness and the chaos that comes with addiction. They also read responses from their Twitter followers, adding a communal touch to the conversation.
The trio breaks down the language used in recovery, exploring different interpretations and the role of community support. Carl even takes a light-hearted jab at his own morning struggles, proving that laughter is a vital part of the healing process.
