Expanded x Ep. 70: Addiction, Sobriety, and Financial Freedom with Josey Orr
“Unfortunately we have high tolerances for emotional pain, and you often don’t realize how much pain you were sitting in until you’re on the other side of it”
Today’s guest is a dear friend of Lacy & Max and the Co-Founder of Hugs CBD, Josey Orr. Josey opens up about his journey with addiction and sobriety, and his success with his current business venture. He also talks about what finally made him want to get sober, how he reconnected with his high school sweetheart (who is now his fiancé), and how to be upfront with your intentions and boundaries in relationships. Josey and Lacy also talk on some financial tips and things to know for people who are new to buying or using CBD.
