Radical Honesty: Max Larocque's Relapse and Recovery Journey

Relapse has a negative association, and I want to make it very clear that I am not beating myself up over this. Recovery is not always linear, along with just about every challenging situation we will inevitably encounter throughout our lives.

After an eight-month hiatus, Max opens up about his cannabis relapse and the path he wants his podcast to take. He doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff—relapse, after all, often carries a heavy stigma. But Max is here to break that down and show that recovery isn’t a straight line.
It’s a winding road with its fair share of bumps and detours, and that’s okay. Radical honesty is Max’s mantra for the year, and he’s embracing it fully.

In this episode, Max dives into the power of reframing negative thoughts, practicing gratitude, and being mindful.
He shares his experiences with life coaching and the lessons he’s learned from personal struggles, including dealing with bronchitis and the withdrawal symptoms from his relapse. Max's journey is a testament to the importance of listening to your body and finding compassion for yourself, even in the midst of setbacks. If you’re looking for a podcast that offers a raw and real look at addiction recovery, this episode is for you.
Max’s story is one of growth, change, and unwavering honesty, and it’s sure to inspire anyone on their own path to wellness.
