Don't inspire somebody by not going through something.
What happens when fatherhood intersects with the journey of addiction recovery? In this episode of SOAR's School of Addiction Recovery podcast, hosts Dustin, Frank, and LT candidly share their personal battles with addiction and their inspiring paths to sobriety. These three fathers don't just talk about their struggles; they dive into the vital role that fitness, spirituality, and good nutrition have played in their recovery journeys.
They discuss the unique challenges of being a father while battling addiction and how their roles as dads have influenced their paths to sobriety. But it’s not just about their personal stories. The episode also highlights the importance of service work and community support. Dustin, Frank, and LT reflect on how giving back has been a cornerstone in their recovery process, emphasizing that helping others can be a powerful tool for personal growth.
The trio also talks about the 'student to coach' model, a unique approach that not only aids in recovery but also empowers individuals to become mentors themselves. By sharing their experiences, they aim to inspire others to take control of their lives and embrace the journey of recovery. As Dustin poignantly states, 'Don't inspire somebody by not going through something'.
This episode is a heartfelt conversation that blends personal anecdotes with practical advice, offering a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
