A lot of addiction is stress related, and when you take off that drug habit, most of your stress goes away. I got to choose to take it out and use it.
Ever thought about the power of hope behind bars? In this episode of 'Get In The Herd', hosts John Shinholser and Alex Bond sit down with Shannon Lantz, who found a lifeline in the McShin Foundation while incarcerated. Shannon’s story is one of resilience and transformation, offering a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction, especially those behind bars. Shannon stumbled upon the McShin Foundation through jail programs and their Recovery Resource Videos, which are available to inmates nationwide.
With 93,445 individuals enrolled in McShin courses on tablets in jails and prisons last quarter alone, these resources are making a significant impact. Shannon shares how these tools not only introduced her to recovery but also helped her build a supportive community even within the confines of incarceration. Throughout the conversation, Shannon, John, and Alex dive into the nitty-gritty of addiction recovery. They discuss how evidence-based treatments can change lives and the crucial role of community support in sustaining sobriety.
Shannon's personal reflections on her journey highlight the transformative power of finding hope and support, even in the most challenging circumstances. The episode doesn't just focus on Shannon's past but also sheds light on the broader impact of McShin's programs. From reducing stress-related triggers to fostering a sense of belonging, these resources provide a comprehensive approach to recovery that goes beyond traditional methods.
If you're looking for a story that underscores the importance of community and evidence-based treatment in overcoming addiction, this episode is a must-listen. Shannon's journey from incarceration to recovery is a testament to the power of hope and the human spirit's resilience.
