In this episode of "If by Chance", we travel to Karachi, a city on the south side of Pakistan, and delve into the raw and candid realities of living amidst political turmoil and recurrent security threats. However, our conversation takes an inspiring turn as we connect with Billy, a former opioid addict turned saviour, who now runs a treatment facility aiding others in their battle against addiction. Billy's ten-year journey of sobriety and his struggles to break the cycle of addiction in a neighbourhood infested with drug abuse serves as a beacon of hope. Despite dealing with the inadequate judicial system and societal pressures, his courage and passion drive him forward. We also discuss the cultural diversity of Pakistan's provinces and the challenges facing its people. Finally, we explore potential avenues for providing meaningful aid to foster positive change.
