David Cook's 100-Day Bike Challenge: A Father's Journey Through Addiction

You know, walking along my son is, is yeah, I want, I don't. I always want to know, I'm there, but I don't need to be in his lane, right, I need right.
Imagine facing the heart-wrenching reality of your child's addiction. David Cook did just that when his son fell into the grip of heroin. In this episode of 'Recovery On-Air', David shares his incredible journey from Michigan to Arizona, determined to 'fix' his son's addiction. But what he discovered was a powerful lesson in acceptance and love. After his son's arrest, David took to his bike, committing to ride for an hour every day for 100 days.
This simple yet profound act led to the creation of 100 Pedals, a non-profit dedicated to helping families navigate the turbulent waters of addiction. Join host Greg as he chats with David about the importance of open communication, confronting fears, and the transformative power of intuitive thoughts. David's story is a moving reminder that while you can't always fix your loved ones, you can always love them.
Tune in for an honest conversation about the struggles and triumphs of living with addiction, and find hope in the power of love and support.
