Ian Henyon's Path to Recovery: Overcoming Addiction with Compassion and Boundaries

That is the antidote to addiction, and we, you know that's not, that's familiar, we all know that, we understand that, because if, when we're using, we're isolating and, you know, engaging in all sorts of things so that are unhealthy.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around from the depths of addiction? Ian Henyon, from the Birmingham Treatment Center, joins Curt Neider and Shelley Mangum on the 'Illuminate Recovery Podcast' to share his remarkable journey. Ian firmly believes that even those who feel utterly hopeless can make profound changes and lead fulfilling lives. He opens up about the significance of avoiding guilt and shame, maintaining healthy boundaries, and the innovative approaches used at his treatment facility in Alabama.
Through his own experiences and years of expertise, Ian provides a refreshing perspective on the addiction recovery process. He tackles the tough topics, like the controversial use of buprenorphine-containing medications and the often-overlooked role of trauma and family dynamics in addiction. Ian’s approach is rooted in compassion and understanding, emphasizing the need for professional support without resorting to punishment. Instead, he empowers clients by giving them a sense of control and choice in their recovery journey.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Ian’s story is not just about overcoming addiction; it’s about the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of hope.
