Michael Fiore: Transforming Addiction into a Message of Hope

I turned my mess into my message and live by two mantras, 'we are responsible for the choices we make' and 'we can't change the past, but we can change the future.'
Imagine battling addiction for two decades and coming out on the other side not just sober, but as a beacon of hope for others. That's exactly what Michael Fiore, the CEO and founder of Inspire 2 Inspire, has done. In this episode of 'Recovery Survey', Brett Morris sits down with Fiore to delve into his incredible journey from drug abuse to becoming a motivational speaker and advocate for recovery.
Michael opens up about his 20-year struggle with drugs, including a grueling 12 years on methadone. He shares the turning point that led him to detox successfully and graduate from treatment. But his story doesn't stop there. Fiore talks about moving from New York City to California, where he started a non-profit organization and even launched a clothing line, all while spreading his message of resilience and hope.
One of the standout moments in this conversation is when Fiore discusses his partnership with The Sober app and how technology can play a role in supporting those in recovery. He emphasizes the importance of perspective, reminding us that 'we are responsible for the effort, not the outcome'. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking for inspiration and practical advice on overcoming addiction.
Fiore's journey is a powerful testament to the idea that no matter how dark things may seem, there is always a way to turn things around.
