This week Laura is celebrating the 150th episode of Speaking to Influence.  Dr Nasser Khan shares what he and his company are doing to help addicts rebuild and recover.  Dr. Khan discusses the importance of storytelling when it comes to overcoming the fears of the neighborhood when a new facility is going to be built in the community.  When others share their fears when a facility opened in their community and that their fears were allayed, that helps with the message that help is needed in every community.  Once every five minutes there is an opioid death in the United States.

Here are a few things that you will learn in this episode:
How only 10 percent of those with an opioid addiction are in treatment today.
As a manager knowing that the importance of teams and playing to individual strengths helps to create balance.
Understanding that addiction impacts more than 10 million across the USA and is chronic.
Opioid overdoses are the leading cause of death for ages 18-45 in the USA..

During the 24-Hour Influence Challenge, Dr. Khan challenges the viewers to look up “fentanyl” and see what comes up.
