I think the challenge is converting that [gift of deception] into positive growth.
Imagine navigating the tumultuous twenties without the crutch of alcohol. In this episode of 'Sober Conversations', Dr. Herby Bell sits down with Jordy and Wes, two young men who have chosen sobriety in their mid-20s. They open up about the highs and lows of addiction treatment and the unique challenges faced by young people in recovery.
From the role of family and friends to the critical moments that led them to seek help, Jordy and Wes offer a raw and honest look at what it means to live sober at a young age. You'll hear them discuss what works and what doesn't in addiction treatment, and how the support—or lack thereof—from loved ones can make a world of difference.
Their stories aren't just about overcoming addiction; they're about finding ambition and vision in a life free from substance abuse. They also touch on the importance of community support and education in maintaining sobriety. Jordy and Wes challenge the stereotype that young people in recovery are somehow less serious or more privileged. They prove that with the right mindset and support, anyone can turn their life around.
Their conversation is filled with valuable insights, including the controversial idea that sometimes hitting rock bottom is necessary for real change. As Jordy candidly puts it, 'Let them hit their bottom'. Whether you're personally battling addiction, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about young sobriety, this episode offers a wealth of knowledge and inspiration. Tune in to hear Jordy and Wes's courageous stories and learn what it truly takes to live a healthy, addiction-free life.
