I firmly believe there is no greater value on this planet than somebody that is in recovery.
Ever wondered how someone can rise from a turbulent childhood to become a beacon of hope in the recovery community? Meet Colin Cash, co-founder of the Recovery group Sober Squad. In this episode of 'The Way Out', co-host Jason sits down with Colin to explore his incredible journey.

He talks about the origins of Sober Squad, which started as a small group meeting for coffee and has now blossomed into a thriving community. Colin emphasizes the importance of peer support and mentorship in recovery, drawing from his own experiences with his sponsor. Now, he pays it forward by supporting others on their journey. If you’re looking for an inspiring tale of resilience and the power of community, this episode is for you.
Colin’s journey from feeling like a zero to becoming a true recovery hero is a powerful reminder that no one is alone in their struggle, and there is always hope for a better future.
