Ep. 49 - A New Look at Addiction - a podcast by Noor Kidwai

In this Episode I speak with author John Giordano. John has opened up many treatment centers in America and has helped numerous people overcome addiction. John tells us about coming from a mafia style family and his history with drug abuse. He tells us about his story of recovery, going through treatment and homeless centers to eventually starting his own treatment centers. 

John tells us how the normal recovery rate of treatment centers is 5-7% and how he got his treatment centers to 70% recovery rate. He tells us about the comprehensive approach he takes with his clients and the multiple factors that need to be taken into account when dealing with addiction. We also talk about the affect lock downs have had on overdoses and relapses. 

John also tells us about being a grand master in Karate and also winning a national championship. He tells us about the spirituality and discipline in Karate and how it has helped his life. He also talks about how Karate has changed over the decades.
