    Jul 5 2026

    Lauren talks to James this week. He struggled silently with kratom for years, escalating from casual use to a dangerous 7OH addiction that nearly destroyed his health, memory, and finances. Sharing his expertise as an addiction RN, James ultimately got sober through Ibogaine treatment, disciplined diet and exercise, and leaning on his faith and family.

  • E213 J. Paul
    Aug 16 2026

    Welcome back, Lily, as an interviewer. Our guest this week had a previous addiction to alcohol and started taking kratom powder capsules about 5 years ago. Eventually, he switched over to kava-kratom tonics and began abusing prescription ADHD medications alongside kratom. Quitting with the help of an intensive outpatient treatment program and twelve-step meetings, he was also aided by suboxone, which he has tapered down to 3 mg at the time of the interview.

  • E211 Rocky
    Aug 2 2026

    Lauren and Rocky talk about his 10-year kratom addiction, starting with kratom powder, then to liquid extracts, and ending on 7-OH, like so many in 2026. Off all substances since January 2025, Rocky had many restarts along his path, which required a stint in residential rehab and sober living along with MOUD injection. Rocky had a previous history of addiction, but kratom wasn't the solution to his substance abuse challenges, and at several points during his decade using kratom, he also became addicted to cocaine and Adderall.
