-President Bill Clinton

-Van Jones, Author, CNN Host, and Founder of #cut50 and the Dream Corps

-former U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich, advisor to Advocates for Opioid Recovery

“Ryan’s journey breaks the mold. Not only does he overcome the insidious shame associated with addiction and speak out in this book, he is dead set on inciting a revolution, and he’s going to bring you with him whether you know it yet or not!”
-Greg Williams, Filmmaker of The Anonymous People & Co-Founder of Facing Addiction
