Relapse After Relapse Until Prison Saved My Life - Nathan King

In this episode, Nathan King opens up about his brutal struggle with cocaine addiction—how it started, how it spiralled out of control, and how he finally found a way out. From being held at gunpoint to losing his marriage and nearly destroying his relationships, this is a raw and unfiltered conversation about the devastating impact of addiction.


Growing up, he was always in the spotlight—praised as a performer, thriving in show business, and addicted to the validation. But when the applause stopped, he turned to cocaine to fill the void. What started as a way to keep up with drinking soon became a full-blown addiction that controlled every part of his life.


Topics Covered:


• How childhood praise and validation fuelled addiction

• Moving past relapse

• The moment cocaine took over his life

• Lying, stealing, and losing trust – the cost of addiction

• Being held at gunpoint and the dangers of the drug world

• The lies he told himself to keep using

• Why rehab was the turning point

• The struggle of rebuilding a life after addiction

• The lessons he’s learned about recovery and self-worth


This is an honest, eye-opening discussion that exposes the realities of cocaine addiction and the long road to healing.
