EXPANDED Podcast by To Be Magnetic™ Ep. 70 - Addiction, Sobriety, and Financial Freedom with Josey Orr
“It’s interesting when you see the lights come back on for someone, no matter what they’re going through, whether that’s depression, or alcoholism, or drug addiction. Whatever they’re going through, when they go through a process and the lights come back on, it’s really really rewarding.” - Josey
“The pain of changing has to be less than the pain of staying the same. 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” - Josey
“Once you make your intentions clear and you kind of set boundaries, you have to stick to them.” - Josey
“One of the biggest preconceived notions that people have about money and capitalism and business, is that it’s this zero sum game. They think if somebody else is winning then that means somebody else is losing, and that is not the case.” - Josey
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.
