A.J. Collette's Remarkable Path: From Identity Crisis to Recovery Advocate

You have to watch or listen to the full podcast because it’s like a movie.
Ever wondered how a person's identity can be completely uprooted and rebuilt multiple times? A.J. Collette's story is nothing short of extraordinary. In this episode of 'Odyssey House Journals', Randall Carlisle sits down with A.J., whose life has been a whirlwind of transformations. Starting from a childhood where his identity was wiped out at age four, A.J. was raised in a family that shifted from Christianity to Judaism, moving from Los Angeles to Israel and back again.
His attempts to fit in led him down a dark path, eventually becoming entangled in gang life and addiction. Despite numerous attempts to break free, it wasn’t until he found Odyssey House that A.J. began his true journey to recovery. Today, he's not just a survivor but a dedicated worker at Odyssey House, helping others find their way out of the maze of addiction.
A.J.'s tale is a testament to the power of resilience and the possibility of recovery for anyone willing to seek it. Tune in to hear his gripping narrative, filled with twists and turns that feel like they belong in a movie.
