Rick Hubbard's Road to Recovery: A Journey of Hope and Resilience
And many times those people have nothing, they have absolutely nothing, but they have a desire to live and a desire to get clean and sober, and I consider it an honor and a privilege to be a part of that, and I'm grateful that I've been part of the journey of so many and helping them get, helping them to get well.
This episode of 'Let The Journey Begin' marks a milestone – the podcast's one-year anniversary. To celebrate, hosts Hilary Roberts and Jason Wahler welcome Rick Hubbard, Executive Vice President of Professional Relations at Origins Behavioral Healthcare. Rick's story is a compelling mix of struggle, success, and redemption. Unlike many, Rick didn't seek sobriety until he was 46. He opens up about his early encounters with prescription drugs and alcohol, starting as a teenager.
These substances became his crutch, masking a deep-seated identity crisis. Despite achieving significant success in the banking industry, Rick's substance abuse eventually led him to hit rock bottom. It was then that he sought help and turned his life around. Now, nearly 20 years sober, Rick is dedicated to helping others navigate their own paths to recovery. He shares his insights on the importance of support and community in overcoming addiction.
This episode is not just about Rick's past; it's about his ongoing mission to inspire and assist others in their recovery journeys. Tune in to hear a story of perseverance, hope, and the transformative power of seeking help.
