Wes Hurt's Clean Cause: Turning Recovery into a Mission

Clean Cause was built on a mission first. It didn’t even have a name or a product yet. It was that I was going to give 50% of the profits away to support people in recovery, and that was it.
Wes Hurt’s story is one of passion, recovery, and giving back. As the founder of Clean Cause, Wes has taken his personal journey through addiction and turned it into a mission to support others on their path to sobriety. In this episode of Recovery Corner, Wes opens up about his struggles with addiction and the pivotal moments that led him to create Clean Cause, a company dedicated to donating 50% of its profits to support people in recovery.
Wes shares candidly about the challenges he faced and how he aligned his entrepreneurial spirit with his values to not only sustain his own recovery but also to help others find stability. He dives into the importance of creating a supportive environment and community for long-term recovery, emphasizing that it’s not just about quitting substances but also about building a life that supports sobriety.
The episode also touches on the concept of root cause analysis, urging listeners to look deeper into the sources of their struggles. Wes talks about the role of retail in recovery spaces and how businesses can contribute positively by carrying products like Clean Cause that support recovery initiatives. To add another layer of inspiration, guest Julie B joins the conversation, sharing her own story of recovery and how creativity has played a significant role in her healing process.
Her narrative underscores the idea that recovery is not a one-size-fits-all journey but a deeply personal process that can be supported by various outlets, including creative expression. This episode is a heartfelt and informative look at how one man’s mission is making a tangible difference in the recovery community. Whether you’re in recovery, supporting someone who is, or simply interested in stories of resilience and purpose, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration.
