Nic Sheff is the bestselling author behind Tweak, and he is the subject of his father’s memoir Beautiful Boy, which was adapted into an award-winning film in 2018. After taking his first drink at just 11 years old, Nic spiraled into addictions to hard drugs and entered his first rehab at 19.

And yet, Nic’s story isn’t just about addiction—it’s about finding hope, resilience, and the strength to rebuild when everything seems lost.

Today, Nic shares what led to his battle with substance abuse, the tumultuous road to recovery and how, after 13 years of sobriety, he’s a passionate voice for mental health and addiction recovery.

My friends, whether you or someone you love has been impacted by addiction, this conversation is a reminder about the power of second chances and the understanding that even in our darkest moments, we’re never truly alone.
