It really is a matter of seeking, admitting you have a problem, seeking help and then doing the hard work it takes to turn your life.
Ever wondered if there's a way to detox without relying on drugs? Bob Forrest, along with his co-hosts Chuk and Mike, dive into this very topic in this episode of 'Don't Die Podcast'. After a brief hiatus, they're back with fresh insights and an all-new sponsor. They kick things off by discussing the return of music festivals and how these events can foster a sense of community and joy. But that's just the beginning.
Bob introduces his new sober living house, which employs a Social Model Detox approach. This method focuses on peer support and community living rather than medication, and guess what? It's showing promising results! The trio also emphasizes the importance of making sobriety a top priority. Without it, they argue, therapy and other treatments may fall short. As the conversation unfolds, they touch on the unexpected shift from conspiracy theories to the glamorous world of Studio 54.
And in true 'Don't Die' fashion, Bob shares a humorous anecdote about his bathroom dilemma during the Ohana Festival. This episode isn't just for those battling addiction. It's also for anyone curious about alternative detox methods, the impact of media, and the power of music to bring people together. Bob's candid style and genuine insights make this episode a must-listen. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or simply interested in these topics, you'll find something valuable here.
