À propos de cet audio
In this episode of The NOCE Dose, host Bianca D. McCall sits down with Ryan Mills, a former professional BMX rider whose story embodies both the pain and the promise of recovery. Ryan opens up about his battle with opioid use disorder, exploring how the intense pressure to perform can lead youth and high-achieving athletes down a dangerous path. Together, Bianca and Ryan unpack the importance of holistic pain management, peer support, and the power of lived experience in recovery.
The conversation challenges traditional ideas of accountability, calling for more compassionate and flexible recovery programs that honor the complexities of addiction and identity rebuilding. Ryan’s reflections offer a message of hope—that even after deep struggle, a renewed sense of purpose and community can emerge.
