The Addicted Mind Podcast

Duane Osterlind

Booking Overview

An interview-led addiction-recovery show focused on treatment, trauma, mental health, and personal recovery, typically featuring clinicians, physicians, treatment innovators, and people with lived experience. PR agencies could credibly pitch addiction and mental-health specialists, trauma or eating-disorder experts, treatment entrepreneurs, and recovery advocates with substantial personal stories; booking difficulty is likely low because the show regularly features accessible professionals and emerging experts rather than only high-profile celebrities.
