Ryan Canaday: From Addiction to Leading a Recovery Community
I can't stress to people how important community is. Free is a recovery community for addicts, loved ones of addicts and spiritual refugees.
Imagine waking up one day and deciding it's time to change your life completely. That's exactly what Ryan Canaday did on January 7, 2013. This episode of 'Journeys of Resilience' features Ryan's remarkable story of becoming sober through the 12-step program and his ongoing commitment to the recovery community in Denver.
As the Lead Pastor and Executive Director of FREE Spiritual Community, Ryan has dedicated his life to helping others break the silence around addiction and find healing and spiritual connection.

Ryan also shares how he and his wife, Tami, founded FREE in 2018 to create a space where addicts, their loved ones, and spiritual seekers can come together for support and recovery.
