Recovery allows us to live a life that is radically transparent, that allows us to not make any sort of apology about who we are and what we do.
Ever thought a restaurant could be a beacon of hope for those in recovery? Meet Rob Perez, a seasoned restaurateur with 30 years under his belt, who’s turning the culinary world into a lifeline for people battling addiction. In this heartfelt episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast, host Zach Crouch sits down with Rob to chat about his brainchild, Dv8 Kitchen.
This isn't just any eatery—it's a social enterprise dedicated to offering second chances to individuals in recovery through hands-on job training. Rob and his wife Diane have witnessed the toll addiction takes on lives within the restaurant industry. Their solution? A unique blend of culinary excellence and compassionate support. At Dv8 Kitchen, every loaf of bread baked in-house symbolizes a fresh start for someone reclaiming their life from addiction.
Rob dives into the nitty-gritty of running a business that prioritizes second chances, from building trust with employees to fostering a transparent and supportive community. The conversation also touches on the broader impact of Dv8 Kitchen’s mission. Rob shares how their Christian values shape the restaurant’s operations and how their triple bottom line approach—focusing on people, planet, and profit—creates a sustainable and nurturing environment for everyone involved.
Listeners will gain insight into the challenges and triumphs of providing vocational training to those in recovery and the ripple effect it has on the community. This episode isn’t just about food; it’s about forging paths to recovery and offering hope where it's needed most. Whether you’re in recovery, know someone who is, or simply want to be inspired by a story of resilience and community support, this conversation with Rob Perez is a must-listen.
