I look at it as a door, like a doorway to college. And you're not like- oh, I'm the weirdo- not drinking, you're still able to enjoy it and feel completely kind of part of the whole thing.
Imagine a place on campus where you can find support, understanding, and practical advice for staying sober. That's exactly what 'Pack N Recovery' offers. In this introductory episode, hosts Brandon and Ezra dive into the origins of Nevada's Recovery and Prevention (NRAP), a collegiate recovery community at the University of Nevada, Reno. They tackle the tricky task of defining recovery and explain how their podcast aims to help students not just survive but truly thrive in their sobriety journey.
Special guest Daniel Fred joins the conversation, sharing his unique perspective on NRAP's evolution and its holistic approach to recovery. Daniel reflects on the early days when NRAP was just an idea and marvels at what it has become today—a supportive haven for students in recovery. He emphasizes the importance of creating an inclusive environment where students don't feel pressured to drink and can find a sense of belonging.
The hosts and Daniel discuss various challenges, like the stigma surrounding addiction and the need for more outdoor treatment resources. They share inspiring stories of success and highlight the crucial role of community support in sustaining recovery while in college. Whether you're a student grappling with addiction or someone looking to support a loved one, this episode is packed with valuable insights and heartfelt stories.
