Joe Landry: Embracing Reality and Recovery

And I'll tell you this football story because I think it summarizes my inability to really understand what this recovery thing is all about.
What happens when you hit rock bottom and realize that your way isn't working anymore? Joe Landry's story on the Illuminate Recovery Podcast is a gripping tale of addiction, surrender, and finding a new path. Joe, now the director of outreach and alumni at Discovery Place, opens up about his battle with addiction, the moment he accepted he needed help, and the journey that followed. For years, Joe wrestled with addiction, feeling restless, irritable, and discontented.
His attempts to get clean were marked by repeated failures until he reached a point of complete surrender. It was then that his true recovery began. Joe talks candidly about how spirituality, family support, and service work became cornerstones of his healing process. He also highlights the significant role played by the Discovery Place addiction recovery program in his transformation.
If you're struggling with addiction or know someone who is, Joe's story offers a beacon of hope and a reminder that recovery is possible when you embrace reality and seek help.
