I think everybody is the hero of their own recovery story, and that's why these, that's why stories are good, because every story has the kernel of truth of somebody who's starting at one position, want to be better and change the world in some way.
Imagine battling addiction with nothing but a stack of movies and a bucket of popcorn. That’s exactly what Hollywood veteran Ted Perkins did. In this eye-opening episode of the 'Recovery Plus Podcast', Dr. Mei-Li Hennen sits down with Ted to discuss his unconventional path to sobriety. Trapped in a room with just an iTunes account, microwave popcorn, and Diet Coke, Ted watched 100 movies in 100 days, each film offering a new perspective on addiction and recovery.
This unique approach not only helped him kick his drinking habit but also led to his book, 'Addicted in Film'. The book dives into his top 25 films about addiction, revealing how they can offer vital lessons for anyone on the recovery journey. Ted’s story challenges traditional recovery methods, emphasizing the power of storytelling and personal responsibility.
Whether you’re in recovery, supporting someone who is, or just curious about alternative recovery methods, this episode offers a fresh and inspiring take on the road to sobriety.
