Cullen Easter talks about his desire to help raise awareness for opioid abuse through OpiCure
In this week's episode, Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley are joined by Cullen Easter (President and co-Founder of OpiCure, Professional cyclist, Registered Nurse at UofU Health) to talk about finding his passion for helping others after struggling to find his place as a young adult, how he started to use alcohol to cope with life's hurdles, and how cycling helped him channel some of those emotions that pushed him to drink. Then Cullen talks about how recovery helped fuel his drive to co-found OpiCure.org, a foundation that raises awareness of opioid abuse, redefining best practices for addiction recovery, and devoting resources to affect positive change in the Utah community.
