Darryl Strawberry on Friendship's Role in Recovery: Insights from The Couch Live

I think they need to learn that it's ok, it's safe when you know, when you have real good friends and you know, talk about the things that you need to talk about, because that's really how you're going to get on the other side of things as being able to talk about them.
What does friendship mean when you're battling addiction? In this episode of 'The Couch Live', hosts Lui Delgado and Trinity Phillips sit down with their good friend, former baseball star Darryl Strawberry, to explore this very question. Darryl opens up about how genuine friendships have played a crucial role in his own recovery journey, offering a heartfelt perspective that's both informative and relatable.
They dive into how real friends can support you through tough times, the importance of open communication, and how childhood experiences shape our relationships. But it's not just about personal stories; the episode also tackles broader issues like the rise of vaping among young people and the importance of educating kids about drug abuse. There's even a discussion on the impact of money in addiction recovery and the power of being of service to others.
Darryl's candid reflections offer a unique lens on the power of friendship, making this episode a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction or interested in personal growth. And if you're moved by what you hear, the hosts also highlight the Now Matters More Foundation, which supports those struggling with addiction. So, grab your headphones and tune in for an episode that's equal parts enlightening and uplifting.
