So all I can do is respect their boundaries. So it's me and my three kids battling another family over a journey and how we interact with each other, how we come together, how we solve problems, and it's not even going to be here in The United States.
What does it take to turn a life of addiction into one of hope and recovery? In this episode of Project Recovery, Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley sit down with Rob Woolsey, who shares his compelling story. Rob's journey began with an early addiction to adrenaline, which soon spiraled into experimenting with heavy drugs throughout high school.
Seeking a fresh start, he embarked on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, hoping to curb his addictive behaviors. Rob opens up about a back injury that introduced him to opioids, leading to a tumultuous period that strained his family life and marriage. He recounts his first stint in rehab and the harsh realities that followed. The conversation takes a poignant turn as Rob discusses how his divorce plunged him into deeper addiction.
A heartfelt conversation with his son became the catalyst for change, planting the seeds of recovery. Listeners will find valuable insights as Rob talks about the steps he took to recognize what a successful life in recovery looks like for him. He emphasizes the importance of mindfulness and living in the present. 'All you have right now is what's in front of you, and that's the only thing you can control,' Rob shares.
This episode is a testament to the power of resilience and the ongoing journey of recovery. Tune in to hear Rob's story and find inspiration in his words. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers hope, practical advice, and a reminder that every moment is a chance to start again.
