Addiction.
Something that we perhaps don’t pay enough attention to in our lives that always seem so full. This conversation is centred around the story of a heroin addiction and her journey. A display of courage, determination and phenomenal mental strength. As Kurt shares during the conversation, Merlene is definitely a heroine and we thank her for sharing her story with us.
We cover everything from getting addicted, to dealing with the highs (and the lows), and eventually coming to the realisation that things could not go on as they were. Traveling back home to go into a rehab centre and arranging one last high before giving it up for good.
A story that certainly had an impact on us and the wide ranging insights in this conversation may well have an impact on you.
