 Riley’s story takes us deep into the world of addiction, drug trafficking, paranoia, and ultimately recovery. From selling weed as a teenager to moving pounds of drugs through the Dark Web, Riley lived like his life was a movie—until the money, power, and paranoia consumed him. After near misses with law enforcement, psychosis, and losing everything, he found recovery, reconnected with family, and built a life in service to others.

Key Learning Points:

  • How early insecurity and bullying can fuel addiction pathways

  • The lure of ego, money, and status in the drug trade

  • The role of family reconnection, treatment, and higher power in recovery
  • Giving back as part of long-term healing
