Addiction2Recovery
We will evaluate, discuss and educate on all types of addiction topics. However, we will highlight the nuanced differences between the medical field (Dr. Heather- Addiction Physician) and those with the disease of addiction (Josh- Certified Peer Recovery Support Specialist). Episodes will not only bring you the specifics of addiction including the neurobiology of addiction and how that translates into the 'real world' but they will also bring you interviews from individuals in early or long-term recovery, therapists, family members, friends, clergy, treatment providers and so much more! We would love to hear from you, whether you have a question, suggestion, recommendation, request or even if you'd like to be a guest on the show!

And stay tuned for our website, which will feature blog posts from your hosts, story updates from previous episodes, 'our favorite' things (resources to coping strategies to just fun things), and merchandise!

50. Brian Part 3- The Road to Recovery
After hitting rock bottom when his kids were taken from his and his wife's arms by CPS and he was arrested, Brian realized he had to make a change. "I didn't know how to receive or handle what was going on in my life" he recalled. The next steps he states: "My wife got offered drug court... I got offered a prison sentence." However, he was able to make big changes, leaning on his faith, focusing on showing his kids that "I wanted to demonstrate to them that I tried"... even if they never got them back. "I pledged that I wouldn't harm my children again". So what happened? Listen to find out how Brian's recovery journey progressed!
