John and Shane's Journey: Finding Hope at the McShin Foundation
Breaking the bondage of addiction, breaking that bondage and talking about that in some sort of- oh, I don't know- format, in a room with other people and perhaps putting that out into the world through some kind of- I don't know- live stream, and producing that on a regular basis from say, oh, I don't know-ish to-ish every week, sounds great.
Picture this: you're at the lowest point in your life, grappling with addiction, and then you find a lifeline. That's the heart of this episode of 'Get In The Herd', hosted by Nathan Mitchell. He sits down with John O. and Shane W., two participants in the McShin Foundation's 28-day program, who share their raw and real experiences of battling addiction and finding hope.
Their stories are not just about struggle but about the transformative power of community and support in recovery. They talk candidly about the hurdles they faced early on and how the McShin Foundation gave them the tools to rebuild their lives. The pandemic threw a wrench in many recovery processes, but John and Shane reveal how the foundation adapted with virtual meetings and new ways to stay connected.
They highlight the crucial role of house and peer leaders who provided them with guidance and accountability. This episode underscores the importance of storytelling in recovery—how sharing their journeys helps them heal and inspires others to seek help. If you're looking for an honest, uplifting conversation about overcoming addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
