01: Theo Fleury / Addiction doesn't discriminate

Addiction doesn’t discriminate. It affects people in every age group, socio-economic status and religious belief. It doesn’t matter how much money you have, what type of work you do, whether you are a parent or where on earth you were born. Whether it's an addiction to alcohol, drugs, sex, gambling or food, a common underlying cause is trauma. What lengths will we go to numb emotional pain? How do we move past the shame and secrets that come along with experiencing a trauma?

Theo Fleury, NHL All-Star, Stanley Cup Winner & Olympic Gold Medalist, talks about addiction, and how trauma is the human experience that binds us together and the freedom that comes with letting go of shame.
