Scott Strode: Building a Sober, Active Community with Phoenix Multisport

But the more things like phoenix that are out there, they don't have to be sports or athletic-oriented, but the more things that we can come up with and sort of break the mental models of how we treat addiction and think a little bit differently about it, I actually think we can start healing society at large.
Scott Strode's journey from addiction to sobriety is nothing short of inspiring. As an accomplished tri-athlete, mountaineer, and ice climber, Scott turned his passion for physical activity into a lifeline for himself and others battling substance use disorder. In this episode of Recovery Innovators Radio, hosted by James Healy, Scott shares the story behind Phoenix Multisport, the nonprofit he founded to create a supportive and active community for individuals in recovery.
Phoenix Multisport offers a unique approach to sobriety, emphasizing the transformative power of a healthy, active lifestyle. Scott discusses how building relationships through shared physical challenges—like mountain climbing—can help maintain long-term sobriety. This isn't just about exercise; it's about forging connections and finding strength in community. Throughout the episode, Scott delves into the expansion of Phoenix Multisport to various locations, making it accessible to more people struggling with addiction.
He talks about breaking traditional mental models of addiction treatment and exploring new ways to support recovery. As Scott puts it, 'The more initiatives like Phoenix that we have—whether sports-oriented or not—the better we can rethink addiction treatment and start healing society as a whole'. Whether you're in recovery, supporting someone who is, or working in the addiction recovery field, Scott's insights offer valuable perspectives on how physical activity and community can be powerful tools for sobriety.
