Kathy and Shayna are joined by Joey Pagano, author, therapist, professor, licensed social worker and recovering addict. Joey talks about his own history of addiction, his recovery and his commitment to helping other people struggling with substance abuse issues.
Of note, we struggled with identifying realistic, empathetic representations of substance abuse in pop culture.
Joey's book, No Addict Left Behind: It's a Recovery Medicine State of Mind, will be out April 25, 2023 on Amazon.
You can find Joey in a bunch of places, like his website, Instagram, Facebook, Linked in, and TikTok
Kathy is sick AGAIN. When recording she hoped she sounded like "Sexy Phoebe", but after listening to the episode, realizes she sounded more like "Smelly Kat".
