  • Ep 32: Finding Hope and Healing with Kratom: Venus Usher's Story
    Jun 21 2024
    In this episode of Kratom Stories, Madalyn speaks with Venus Usher, an ardent Kratom advocate who shares her transformative journey from suffering to healing. Venus recounts her years of enduring chronic pain due to endometriosis and the subsequent ill effects of FDA-approved medications like Lupron, which led to extreme measures, including multiple surgeries, opioid prescriptions, and even turning to the streets for relief. Her life took a dramatic turn when she stumbled upon a Dr. Oz video in 2016 that introduced her to Kratom. Initially skeptical, Venus decided to give it a try, leading to an astonishing reduction in her pain and a newfound sense of euphoria from simply not being in pain anymore. Venus goes on to describe how Kratom has fundamentally changed her life, allowing her to engage in everyday activities that were once impossible. From managing tasks around the house and spending quality time with family to moving freely without debilitating pain, Venus has found renewed purpose and energy. She also highlights her active role in advocating for Kratom, using social media and community engagements to spread the word and help others discover this powerful botanical. Her story is a testament to the potential of Kratom to offer relief and reclaim lives crippled by chronic pain and medical mismanagement. - RELATED LINKS - Christopher's Organic Botanicals - 10% off with code: KratomStories The Kratom Gals Kratom Real Talk CONNECT WITH Venus: Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram 🍃 MADALYN'S RECOMMENDED VENDORS 🍃 Etha Natural Botanicals - 25% off with code: KratomStories New Hope Botanicals - 10% off with code: KratomStories - FOLLOW US ONLINE - KratomStories.com TikTok YouTube Facebook Twitter STAY CONNECTED with us by subscribing to our newsletter!

  • Ep 31: Rediscovering Hope: Scars Rodriguez's Incredible Kratom Journey
    Jun 14 2024
    On this episode of Kratom Stories, listeners will hear a raw and honest conversation with guest Scars Rodriguez as he details his harrowing battle with chronic pain stemming from a childhood diagnosis of juvenile idiopathic arthritis. After enduring countless surgeries and grappling with the destructive cycle of prescription opioids, a defeated Scars found himself contemplating ending his own life. It was during this time of immense despair that he decided to explore Kratom. Choosing to take a gamble on this plant-based remedy, Scars experienced an immediate and life-changing shift. Within moments of his first dose, decades of chronic pain began to recede and was quickly replaced with renewed energy and a sense of hope he thought was lost forever. Six years later, Kratom remains a cornerstone in Scars' life, empowering him to reclaim his life. Now able to manage his pain without relying on pharmaceuticals, he spends his days enjoying activities he loves: cooking, caring for his father, and pursuing his passion for shooting sports. Scars' story resonates deeply, serving as a testament to the life-altering power of Kratom and the importance of sharing stories that combat the stigma surrounding this often misunderstood plant. - RELATED LINKS - A Leaf of Faith documentary Misteaz Merch - Kratom t-shirts, tank tops, sweatshirts, hoodies, pens, & tumblers Ep 2: Embracing Kratom: Misty Brown's Journey from Addiction to Advocacy Misty Brown - TikTok 🍃 MADALYN'S RECOMMENDED VENDORS 🍃 Etha Natural Botanicals - 25% off with code: KratomStories New Hope Botanicals - 10% off with code: KratomStories - FOLLOW US ONLINE - KratomStories.com TikTok YouTube Facebook Twitter STAY CONNECTED with us by subscribing to our newsletter!
