We know that so much of recovery and healing from addiction happens in the heart and the soul, not in the head, and there's no better way to get someone out of their head and into their heart and into their soul than the use of music.
What happens when the rockstar dream turns into a nightmare? In this gripping episode of 'Unpause Your Life', Dr. Cali Estes and Master Coach Jenny Fontana sit down with celebrated musician Jam Alker to unravel his compelling journey from the highs of rock fame to the depths of addiction, and ultimately, to the solace of recovery. Jam shares candidly about how his life spiraled out of control after he found heroin, putting his guitar down for over a decade.
But his story doesn't end there. He reveals the pivotal moment when he realized drugs were masking deeper issues, sparking his path to healing and reigniting his passion for music. Now, with a solo album under his belt and active involvement in the recovery community, Jam uses his experiences to teach others about the healing power of music.
This episode is a heartfelt exploration of how music can serve as a lifeline for those battling addiction, and it offers hope to anyone feeling trapped by their struggles. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that dives deep into the soul's capacity for resilience and transformation.
