In this episode, Ti King engages in a deep conversation with Dr. David Marlon, founder of Vegas Stronger, a nonprofit recovery center. They explore the complexities of recovery, the importance of integrated behavioral health care, and the unique challenges faced by individuals struggling with substance use disorders, particularly in Las Vegas. Dr. Marlon shares his personal journey from addiction to recovery and emphasizes the significance of community support, leadership, and a comprehensive approach to treatment that includes mental, physical, and emotional health. The discussion also touches on the SAMHSA definition of recovery and the need for a more compassionate understanding of addiction as a health issue rather than a criminal one.
