It doesn't matter how much you're set up for success, right, and you can have all these things.
Ever wondered how a professional baseball dream can lead to a life of purpose in recovery work? In this episode of 'Let The Journey Begin', hosts Hilary Roberts and Jason Wahler sit down with Alex Meschi, the Executive Director of the Red Songbird Foundation. Alex isn't your typical guest—he's what some in recovery circles call a 'normie,' someone not in active addiction or recovery. But that doesn't mean his life has been without its own hurdles.
Alex had big dreams of becoming a professional baseball player, even earning a scholarship to play at the collegiate level. However, life threw him a curveball when an academic issue forced him to change his plans. Despite this setback, Alex's story is one of resilience and adaptability. He shares how he found new activities that bring him joy, the importance of regular therapy, and embracing life's inevitable changes.
This episode dives deep into the importance of education, mental health, and handling life's unexpected turns. Alex's journey is a powerful reminder that success isn't just about achieving your dreams but finding happiness and fulfillment along the way. Whether you're in recovery or simply navigating life's ups and downs, Alex's story offers valuable insights and inspiration.
Tune in to hear how Alex turned his setbacks into setups for a fulfilling life, and discover the small joys that can make a big difference.
