In episode 36 of the Sober Vibes Podcast, I sit down with Adam Danielson to talk about an important and often overlooked topic — the connection between head trauma and addiction.
Adam opens up about his personal experience with closed-head injuries from sports and how those injuries affected his thinking, emotional regulation, and decision-making, eventually leading him down a path of addiction to drugs and alcohol.
We talk about his recovery journey, what it took to heal both mentally and physically, and how he’s now on a mission to help others do the same. His story is a powerful reminder that recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all; it’s about understanding your body, your brain, and giving yourself grace along the way.
Healing after trauma is possible. Your story doesn’t end with addiction — it begins again in recovery.
