Show Notes
Navarone Garibaldi Garcia, son of Priscilla Presley, was raised in Los Angeles and faced early exposure to drugs, leading to an addiction to fentanyl in 2016. Despite the challenges, he managed to get clean in 2020, experienced a few relapses in 2022, and has now achieved lasting sobriety.
Currently traveling with Michael Deleon from **Steered Straight**, Navarone speaks to students about the deadly dangers of fentanyl and the deceptive practices of the vaping industry. His message is clear and urgent: fentanyl is everywhere, and it's not by accident. Dealers are deliberately lacing substances with fentanyl, creating a lethal environment for users. Additionally, the vaping industry misleads people into thinking it's a safer alternative to smoking or a way to quit, while hiding significant risks.
Through his intense and passionate advocacy, Navarone Garibaldi Garcia aims to educate young people on the serious dangers of drug use and vaping, hoping to prevent others from facing the harrowing struggles he has overcome.
