I wanna celebrate you

Our next guest is Nico Morales, he is the perfect example of a person who overcame where he from, his past, and his demons. He was born and raised in Albuquerque, New Mexico. He was an athlete, an opiate user, and over-drunk alcohol. Now is an author, graduate, and business owner. Nico had adverse childhood experiences that he repressed, this mental unrest led to an exploration of substances, eventually propelling him into opiate use disorder. By twenty-two, Nico was living out of his truck and spent most of his time finding odd, sometimes illegal ways to make money to support his drug habit. After seeing others close to him pass from overdoses and recounting the times he came near death he recognized there was a reason he was still living. He put down the needle and unfortunately, he picked up a bottle. The cycle of addiction repeated itself and because of the extent of Nico’s over drinking, he found himself staying in a building with no utilities. After exploring different unsuccessful counseling techniques, Nico turned to an alternative method for care, personal development. He now uses his life experience to inspire, coach, and train others to find their purpose, push through difficult moments, and remind them no one was created to be perfect.
