Kevin’s story doesn’t start with addiction—it starts with chaos, trauma, and the beliefs that were formed long before he ever picked up a substance.

In Part 1, Kevin shares what it was like growing up in an environment marked by violence, instability, and shame—and how those early experiences began shaping the way he saw himself and the world around him.

From childhood trauma to searching for identity, this conversation dives into the moments that quietly (and sometimes loudly) define who we become.

And just when everything begins to escalate… we reach a moment that changes everything.

This is Part 1 of Kevin’s story.

What if the thoughts you believe about yourself… aren’t actually true?

In this episode, we explore how our beliefs are formed—from childhood experiences to the things spoken over us—and how those beliefs shape our actions, habits, and even addiction.

We break down the difference between guilt and shame, why what you focus on matters, and how to start challenging negative thoughts and rewriting your internal narrative.

Because real change doesn’t start with your circumstances—it starts with what you believe.

• The cycle of relapse and starting over
• Taking ownership instead of blaming others
• The impact addiction had on his relationships
• The role of sponsorship, accountability, and community
• What real recovery looks like in practice

Jorge’s story is raw, reflective, and ultimately hopeful — a reminder that no matter how far things have gone, change is still possible.
