I just want to make the world better, absolutely, and I will say a huge part of my own leadership journey, and something that I have the pleasure to talk to folks a lot about now in the work, is the idea of genuinely and authentically being present to your impact.
Michael King’s story is one of resilience and dedication. In this episode of 'Recovery Talk', Michael opens up about his personal journey through addiction and recovery, shedding light on the challenges and triumphs he encountered along the way. As the director and creator of The Communities Project, Michael's mission is nothing short of ambitious: to save a million lives from substance use-related deaths over the next twenty years.
His passion for empowering individuals to realize their full potential and drive social change is palpable throughout the conversation. Michael discusses the often-overlooked gap between those with resources and the grassroots efforts making real change on the ground. He highlights the importance of connecting these dots to create a more cohesive and effective recovery community. Personal stories, he believes, are powerful tools for change, and he emphasizes the role of leadership and the responsibility that comes with it.
By being genuinely present and aware of one's impact, Michael argues, leaders can foster meaningful progress. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of personal recovery journeys and broader social advocacy. It’s not just about overcoming addiction; it’s about transforming lives and communities.
