So, it's time to make a change. Some, some bad things kind of happened from that as far as digging too deep into my personal life and being very overreaching and controlling. The first thing I did was I built a community. So I had friends from high school and friends that I knew in the community that were sober and had been through some pretty bad things.
What if the key to recovery wasn't just in meetings or therapy, but also in movement? In this episode of 'Recovery (Sort Of)', hosts Billy, Jason, and Jenny sit down with Mark to discuss the Phoenix App, a unique tool designed to support those in recovery through physical activity. The Phoenix App offers a range of free, volunteer-led classes like CrossFit, yoga, and hiking, available across the United States and now expanding internationally.
