Lance Orton's Resilience: Staying Sober Through the Pandemic

Our night strike under the burnside bridge on Thursday nights may not come back anytime soon. My personal goal would be to create some type of experience- workshop, seminar, program, whatever you want to call it- that helps fill that gap in recovery between getting sober, which can take A Year Or So, say, between lifelong sobriety and fulfilled life, and joy and all that stuff.
Facing isolation, job loss, and financial struggles, Lance Orton knows the challenges of maintaining sobriety during the pandemic. In this episode of 'Henry's Uncle', Lance opens up about his journey from opioid addiction to recovery, sharing how he's managed to stay on track despite the world turning upside down. He talks about the practical tools he uses daily, like keeping a gratitude list and leaning on his faith, to navigate these tough times.
Lance also highlights the importance of community and giving back, emphasizing how focusing on others can help maintain one's own sobriety. With the pandemic causing a surge in addiction issues, Lance discusses the impact on recovery services and the new hurdles people face. Yet, through all the adversity, he remains hopeful and is driven by his goal to create a program that bridges the gap between getting sober and living a fulfilling life.
If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on staying sober during difficult times, this episode offers both.
