To me, recovery through repetition or any fitness-related organization that we have down here, I think that we all echo the same thing, that all the stuff that we do with the fitness and things is merely a supplement to our recovery. This stuff just makes it that much better.
What happens when a young athlete's life spirals into addiction, only to find redemption through fitness and community? In this episode of 'By All Means Necessary', Marco Morillo sits down with his recovery brother Jeremy, who opens up about his battle with addiction that began at just 12 years old. Jeremy's story is a raw, honest look at the highs and lows of his journey to sobriety.
From experimenting with alcohol and weed in his early teens to diving into harder substances during his high school years, Jeremy's life was a rollercoaster of relapses and hospital visits. But amidst the chaos, a profound moment of clarity led him to Southern Florida, where he discovered a new purpose. Jeremy's passion for fitness became his lifeline, leading him to start 'Recovery Through Repetition', a nonprofit organization aimed at connecting people in recovery through shared fitness activities.
This episode isn't just about the struggles of addiction; it's about the power of community and the transformative impact of finding a new path. Jeremy's journey is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the incredible changes that can happen when you find your passion and support network. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone else, Jeremy's story offers hope and practical advice on embracing a new way of life.
