Take It From Us with Kent Johns

Take It From Us is the voice of lived experience. In this podcast, you’ll hear real people share honest stories about mental health, addiction, trauma and recovery - straight from their own journeys.

They’ll tell you what actually worked, what didn’t, and what they wish they’d known sooner.

Host Kent Johns is a former broadcaster-turned-health-coach who believes everyone has a story to tell if people take the time to really listen.

So settle in, you’re going to hear some stories. Take it from us - and from them.
