Description

Hi I'm Benyi Johnson and I struggled with addiction for 7 years. However, in the summer of 2022 I decided to change my life and went into rehab. I started this podcast 90 days clean, and I want to take others along in my journey. Many challenges lie ahead of me and to be frank, I'm not sure if I will ever drink again. This is how Stairway to Redemption was born. It is my search for answers to what is going to work for me thus my aspiration to help those who are also battling active addiction figure out what will work for them.
