Hosts Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar dive into the common misconception that someone or something outside of yourself is needed to 'fix' your addiction.

Mark and Michelle also delve into how personal preferences play a significant role in recovery.
They share real-life examples and practical advice, making the episode both relatable and actionable. If you're tired of waiting for someone else to solve your problems, this episode will inspire you to take control of your own recovery journey.
