Rising from the dark: A story of hope and healing w/ Jamie Blyth

Talking To Charlie.

In this episode, Charlie is joined by his old school friend Jamie, who he first met when they were sent to boarding school at the age of 7. Whilst a friendship blossomed back then, they soon found themselves going there separate ways as life took its course.
Fast forward 40 years and a chance school reunion cricket match, they have been able to reconnect and get up-to-speed on their respective lives.
To say Jamie has been through his fair share of challenges would be an understatement; and in this episode, he relays first-hand what those past 40 years have been like for him.
This includes his experience with drink & drug addiction; suicidal ideation; close encounters with the 14K triad gang in Hong Kong and the befriending of a wild otter off the coast of South Africa.
Remarkably and whilst by his own admittance he did hit rock bottom, he has now been able to turn his life around and finds himself helping others who have been through similar challenges.
A true story of hope and inspiration for anyone who may be going through similar; and to also know, that they should never give up.
