Glenn Carosella's Path to Authenticity and Purpose in Recovery

Humor and laughter are good medicine.
Ever wondered how finding your true self can transform your life, especially when battling addiction? In this episode of Positive Recovery MD, Dr. Jason Powers and Julie DeNofa sit down with Glenn Carosella, a Program Counselor at Positive Recovery Centers, to explore this very journey. Glenn opens up about his childhood in Katy, TX, where despite having loving parents, he often felt isolated and struggled to fit in.
His candid recounting of being bullied in Junior High and the subsequent search for acceptance is both heart-wrenching and enlightening. Glenn shares how his first encounter with marijuana gave him a fleeting sense of belonging, which eventually spiraled into addiction. But that's not where his story ends. Through the lens of Positive Recovery MD, Glenn reveals how embracing authenticity became a cornerstone of his recovery.
He discusses the pivotal moments that led him to become a counselor, helping others navigate their own paths to sobriety. This episode isn't just about Glenn's personal transformation; it's about the broader impact of Positive Recovery MD's approach to addiction recovery. With a sprinkle of humor and a powerful quote from Leo Buscaglia, this conversation underscores the healing power of laughter and genuine connection.
If you're on a recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Glenn's story offers valuable insights and hope.
