Authentic Recovery: Casey Cannizzaro on Embracing Your True Self

My goal, on a day-to-day basis at work, is to create spaces that are completely free of shame and so where people can come in be their authentic self, reconnect to their authentic self and not have to feel like they need to reach for someone else's values.
Ever wondered how being true to yourself can shape your recovery journey? In this episode of 'Human Stories of Recovery', Alex Colyer sits down with Casey Cannizzaro, a counselor from San Diego, to explore just that. Casey opens up about his own path to recovery and how he helps his LGBTQIA+ clients navigate their unique challenges. He passionately discusses the dangers of shame-based programs and the need for judgment-free spaces where individuals can reconnect with their authentic selves.
Casey's goal is clear: create environments where people can heal without feeling pressured to adopt someone else's values. The conversation also dives into harm reduction, online meetings, and the importance of finding a supportive community. If you're looking for an insightful discussion on personalized recovery and the power of authenticity, this episode is a must-listen.
