In this bonus episode, Emmy sits down with John Hill to discuss his journey of recovery and how living a double life often reflects a refusal to acknowledge a problem with consumption. John also shares his coming-out story and reflects on how the opinions of others should not define our sense of self. Through this deep, heartfelt, and at times lighthearted conversation, we are all reminded that making meaningful changes in life requires a "one day at a time" approach to reach our goals.
