      • The Brutal Life of Living Addiction With My Mother | Episode 43
        Apr 23 2025

        In this powerful episode Louis and Aaron sit down with Miriah Crissinger — a woman who has lived through trauma, addiction, profound loss, and the long, grueling road to healing.Miriah's childhood was anything but typical. Raised in a home marked by chaos, her earliest memories are woven with pain and confusion.

        Her mother, trapped in the grip of addiction, created an environment of emotional turmoil, where safety and stability were hard to come by. The very person meant to nurture and protect her was instead consumed by her own battles, leaving Miriah to grow up far too fast.

        As she entered her teenage years, the unresolved trauma and emotional scars began to manifest. Searching for escape and understanding in all the wrong places, Miriah found herself following the same path as her mother. What began as experimentation turned into dependency, and soon, her mother became more than just a parent — she became her using partner, her sidekick in self-destruction. The line between mother and friend, protector and peer, was blurred beyond recognition.

        But Miriah’s story doesn’t stop there. Her descent into addiction came with heavy losses. Perhaps the most heartbreaking was losing the love of her life — her soulmate — to an overdose. The grief was unimaginable. The pain, suffocating. She was left to navigate a world that no longer felt like home, trapped in a cycle of guilt, loss, and addiction.

        For years, Miriah battled her demons. But deep down, a spark remained — a part of her that wanted more, that knew this couldn’t be the end. That spark became a flame, and eventually, the fire that fueled her fight to get clean.

        Today, Miriah is sober. Her journey is far from over, but she is choosing healing every single day. She’s learning to live with the pain, to make peace with her past, and to rebuild her life step by step. Her story is raw, real, and unapologetically honest — a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the power of redemption.By sharing her journey, Miriah hopes to be a voice for others who feel voiceless, and a light for those still lost in the dark. If you or someone you love is struggling, let this video remind you: no matter how far you've fallen, there is always a way back.

              • She OD'd 11 Times In 3 Days! | Episode 41
                Apr 20 2025

                In this raw and gripping episode, Louis sits down with Sannavah, a woman whose story defies belief. Over the course of just three days, she overdosed eleven times — with her very first overdose caught on national television on Live PD. That moment marked the beginning of a downward spiral into addiction, jail, and a life that felt impossible to escape.

                Louis guides the conversation with compassion and honesty, pulling back the curtain on the darkest parts of Sannavah’s life. She opens up about using IV drugs behind bars, smuggling narcotics into jail, and the revolving door of failed treatment attempts. Nothing could break the cycle — not near-death, not incarceration, not hitting “rock bottom.”

                But then, something shifted.

                It wasn’t her first time in treatment — far from it. But for the first time, something clicked. In the midst of chaos, Sannavah found the smallest flicker of hope — and chose to fight for her life.

                This episode goes far beyond addiction. It’s about resilience, transformation, and the raw, unfiltered truth of recovery. Louis creates space for Sannavah to tell her story in full — no shame, no sugarcoating — just brutal honesty and the undeniable power of survival.

                Emotional, unflinching, and unforgettable — this is a story that will stay with you long after the episode ends.
