Kurt Angle also has an app coming out soon called AngleStrong, which will help recovering addicts manage their sobriety.
Angle, who has been sober for almost four years, spoke to CBS Pittsburgh, and explained why he decided to create the AngleStrong app:
“When you’re an addict you’re always an addict and if you’re ashamed to talk about it, you’re not going to help other people. I felt like it was time for someone to step forward and do something about it. Every person out there that’s an addict, you have an amazing story. You have a story to tell other people.”
Angle talked about the app having daily check-ins, meeting reminders and other tools to help recovery, adding:
“We’re going to be there with them the whole way through and that’s the thing is I want them to know they have security.”
