Have you ever wondered how recovery can be more than just overcoming addiction? In this episode of 'The Way Out', hosts Charlie and Jason sit down with Dr. Carl Erik Fisher, a clinical psychiatrist, addiction medicine specialist, and bioethicist. With his own long-term recovery experience and extensive professional background, Dr. Fisher offers a fresh take on what it means to recover.

Dr. Fisher discusses multiple recovery pathways, including traditional 12-step programs and mindfulness practices, emphasizing the importance of letting go of resentments and applying recovery principles broadly.

The conversation wraps up with insights on working through grief and a captivating look at the history of addiction. This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom for anyone looking to understand recovery in a holistic way.
