Matt Bauersachs: Building Hope and Recovery from the Ground Up

I'm thankful that I crashed a couple cars and all these things happened to me, because without that I wouldn't be here.
What happens when you mix youthful substance use, the challenges of mental health, and the drive to create a recovery center from scratch? You get the incredible story of Matt Bauersachs. In this episode of The Illuminate Recovery Podcast, Matt opens up about his personal journey from enjoying substances as a teenager to grappling with depression and finding his way to sobriety.
His story is not just about overcoming addiction but also about the highs and lows of starting a recovery center during a global pandemic. Matt talks about the value of structured sober living and how it provided him with a sense of fun and community in his recovery. He also touches on the role of spirituality, noting that it can look different for everyone but remains a crucial part of the healing process.
Whether you're on your own path to recovery or supporting someone who is, Matt's story offers hope, practical advice, and a reminder that it's possible to build something meaningful even in the toughest times.
