Addiction is a disease that can be overcome. With hard work and dedication, recovery is possible.
Imagine starting life on a path of addiction at just 10 years old. That’s the beginning of Josh Gamaitoni’s story, but it’s far from where it ends. In this episode of Real Recovery Talk, Josh sits down with host Tom Conrad to share his incredible journey from those early days of drug use to becoming the National Director of Business Development for Banyan Treatment Center.
Alongside Tom, who has known Josh since their early days of recovery, they unravel the steps that led to his transformation. Josh’s story is a testament to the power of commitment and community support. After multiple failed attempts at treatment, he made a pivotal decision to stick to sobriety for a year. This decision marked the start of a new chapter in his life.
Starting as a janitor at a church, Josh found joy in sobriety and gradually climbed the ranks in the treatment world. His rise from janitor to a national director isn’t just about career advancement; it’s about personal growth and finding purpose in helping others. Throughout the conversation, Josh and Tom highlight the importance of local treatment options and the emotional challenges of working in addiction recovery.
They also delve into the often-overlooked topic of balancing parenthood with sobriety, offering insights and encouragement for those facing similar struggles. Josh’s journey underscores that recovery is possible with dedication and the right support system. Whether you’re battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers hope and practical advice on navigating the path to sobriety.
