My addiction doesn't care that I was the son of a former president, doesn't care. It was The Greatest Day of my life, literally because you find out who you are, you get your life back and you realize I'm not living in that hell anymore and I don't have to.
What happens when love becomes the cornerstone of healing and transformation? In this episode of 'Recovery Unscripted', host David Condos chats with Becca Stevens, the inspiring founder of Thistle Farms. Becca's journey from author and priest to social entrepreneur is nothing short of remarkable. She established Thistle Farms over two decades ago to create a sanctuary for women who have faced trafficking, prostitution, and addiction.
Today, it's America's largest justice enterprise, offering employment to over 1,800 women worldwide through Thistle Farms Global. Becca's accolades include being named a White House 'Champion of Change' and a CNN Hero. In their conversation, recorded at the Innovations in Behavioral Healthcare conference in Nashville, Becca reveals how practicing love can not only heal lives but also transform economies and change us in profound ways.
She shares heartfelt stories about the power of community and connection in the recovery process, practical tips on incorporating mindfulness into daily life, and the incredible impact of storytelling in addiction recovery. If you're looking for a dose of hope and inspiration, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear how love can be a powerful force for change.
