Ken Rideout: From Opioid Addict to World Champion

Описание: When you look up Ken Rideout, you get a wild list of labels: prison guard. Wall Street trader. Opioid addict. Fastest marathoner in the world over 50.
In this episode, Ken sits down with Zac to talk about reinvention – and what it actually takes to change your life. From crushing opioids and cocaine, and hiding addiction while building a career in finance, to detoxing, rebuilding from the ground up, and eventually becoming a World Champion marathoner, Ken’s story is one of radical ownership.

We talk about:
The brutal reality of opioid addiction
Suboxone, Vivitrol, kratom – and the hard truths about “shortcuts”
Why getting sober is the foundation for everything
Running 4,000 miles a year as a new addiction
Therapy, trauma, and what Onsite taught him
Marriage, cancer, fatherhood, and what actually matters
Why the timing is never perfect to make a change
They also discuss Ken’s new book, The Other Side of Hard, is for anyone standing at the edge of a decision – sobriety, career shift, health reset – wondering if it’s possible.

His message is simple:
No one is coming to save you.
You can reinvent yourself.
Take the first step.
