John Shinholser Hosts a Heartfelt Recovery Check-In with Newcomers

We are an authentic group of recovering people who are really not worried about or obsessed with using on a regular basis. We think we have all the answers, but God knows, you had all the answers, you wouldn't be here.
Imagine sitting down with people who truly understand the rollercoaster of addiction recovery. That's exactly what happens in this episode of 'Get In The Herd'. John Shinholser, co-founder of the McShin Foundation and a seasoned voice in long-term recovery, takes the reins as guest host. He kicks things off by sharing his own story, a testament to the idea that there's no one-size-fits-all in recovery.
His experiences in various treatment centers highlight the importance of finding a path that works for you. But John doesn't hog the spotlight. He opens the floor to participants from the foundation, who bravely share their own journeys. These are real people facing real challenges, and their stories are raw and unfiltered. They talk about the uphill battle of overcoming addiction, the heavy weight of stigma, and the crucial role that support systems play in their recovery.
One standout theme is the power of community. John and the participants drive home the point that recovery isn't something you can do alone. They discuss how building strong, supportive relationships can make all the difference. They also touch on the unique programs at McShin, like peer-to-peer support, which offer fresh perspectives and new avenues for growth. This episode isn't just a conversation; it's a lifeline for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is.
It's filled with insights that could change how you view recovery, emphasizing that it's a journey best traveled together. Tune in to hear stories of resilience, hope, and the transformative power of community.
