Influencing Substance Use w/guest, Kaleigh Zimmerman

Published: Nov. 1, 2022, 3 p.m.

"I woke up in the hospital I worked at, on suicide watch."

Kaleigh is a Registered Nurse in Philadelphia, USA.

"I was afraid of myself. I knew I was about to lose my job, my kids, and my life."

Tune in this week for an honest conversation about the realities of addiction and health care providers.

We'll talk about her experiences, how she found a safer way,

and what she is doing now to bring awareness to the realities of substance use and health care providers across North America.

"Today, my kids trust me, I'm back in school, I educate community. I have truly found what works for me, who knows, maybe it will work for you too."

You won't want to miss this one friends as we fight our way to the front line this week right here,

on Hard Knox Talks.

Buckle up!
