Published: November 9, 2025
Duration: 44:12
Gord, the cofounder of Sleep Country Canada, shares the unfiltered story of how a weekend escape in 1996 spiralled into a crack addiction, the lies that kept a high-functioning life afloat, the partner who answered with compassion, relapse, recovery, and the mental health work that followed.
A powerful reminder that no one is invincible, and honesty can change everything.
