In this episode of The Kandid Shop podcast, I sat down for a kandid chat with Marybeth O'Connor, former Federal Administrative Law Judge and Author of "Junkie to Judge: One Woman's Triumph Over Trauma and Addiction."
We discussed the intersection of drugs, substance abuse, and the justice system, as well as the need for reforms in criminal justice and healthcare to better address trauma-informed and substance recovery-informed care. Marybeth also shared her personal journey from addiction to becoming a federal judge and discusses her work as an advocate for stigma reduction and criminal justice reform. Tune in for an insightful conversation on alternative recovery methods, decriminalization, and the importance of individualized recovery plans.💜🎧
