David Whitesock: From Addiction to Measuring Recovery Capital

In this episode of 'Beyond Belief Sobriety', David shares his incredible story and introduces the Recovery Capital Index, a groundbreaking tool he developed to measure recovery capital.

The conversation touches on the significance of social connections in recovery and how understanding your recovery capital can be a game-changer. David also discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic has affected recovery efforts and what the future holds for addiction treatment. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the practical aspects of maintaining sobriety and the innovative tools that can support this journey.
