Timmy Brooks: Balancing Sobriety, Work, and Fun in Recovery

And Today the things I care about are recovery, family, sports, friendships, and in this world of recovery there's a lot of different avenues, and something that I was able to put my finger on is that within structured sober living, I think too many times, folks are exactly where I was.
What does it take to maintain sobriety while also finding joy in life? Timmy Brooks from Synergy Houses joins hosts Curt Neider and Shelley Mangum on The Illuminate Recovery Podcast to share his journey. He dives into the critical role of structured sober living and transitional care, emphasizing the importance of keeping personal recovery separate from professional responsibilities. Timmy's experience highlights the need for community support and accountability, especially when dealing with substance use and mental health challenges.
He talks about how integrating fun activities into recovery can make the journey not just bearable but enjoyable. Whether it's sports, family time, or building friendships, Timmy believes that a balanced approach can lead to a fulfilling sober life. This episode offers valuable insights for anyone navigating the path to recovery, making it clear that sobriety doesn't have to be all work and no play.
