Finding Your Way: Sam Epstein's Personalized Approach to Recovery

I appreciate you sharing that with us. You're listening to rewired radio on radio md.
Imagine you're on a journey, but the road ahead is foggy and uncertain. That's what addiction recovery can feel like. In this episode of Rewired Radio, host Erica Spiegelman sits down with Sam Epstein, a seasoned case manager and founder of SoberCompass.org, to talk about navigating this challenging path. Sam, who has been in recovery since December 2013, brings a wealth of personal experience and professional insight to the table.
He knows firsthand how daunting it can be to find the right treatment and develop the skills needed to stay sober. Sam's approach is all about individualized care. He believes that a one-size-fits-all strategy just doesn't cut it in addiction recovery. Each person's journey is unique, with different reasons for using and varied life circumstances. This is where SoberCompass.org comes in.
The platform helps people find the best method and place for their personal recovery, taking into account their specific needs and challenges. Throughout the episode, Sam shares his own recovery story, offering a candid look at the obstacles he faced and the lessons he learned. He emphasizes the importance of developing coping skills and healthy routines. According to Sam, when you're new to sobriety, you lack the muscle memory for healthy living. Building these skills is crucial for long-term success.
Sam also talks about the spiritual principles that have guided him—honesty, humility, and open-mindedness. These values not only helped him in his recovery but also shape his work as a case manager. His personal experience allows him to connect deeply with his clients and guide them toward the right treatment options. For anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and practical advice.
Sam's story and his work with SoberCompass.org provide a beacon of hope and a roadmap for finding your own sober compass.
