Description

In this episode, Hopi shares her story of addiction, how she moved through it, and what she’s found on the other side. We dive into her childhood and being “born an addict”, hitting her wall at 40 & her rock bottom 5 years later, and her experience with sobriety, moving away from narcissism, and her path to finding peace.
