Just knowing that all the people on there are on a similar journey... That feeling, I will never forget.
Ever wondered what happens when people from diverse backgrounds come together to share their journeys of recovery? Lea and Jim from Montana's Peer Network's 'Recovery Talks' podcast give us an inside look at the Healing Together Conference held in April 2022. Sponsored by the Native Dads Network, the Native Wellness Institute, White Bison, and the Native American Fatherhood & Families Association, this event was a melting pot of wisdom and inspiration.
Lea recounts her experience with enthusiasm, starting with the virtual opening ceremony that, despite being on Zoom, managed to create a profound sense of connection among attendees. One of the standout moments for her was Al Pulley's talk on maintaining a positive attitude in recovery. His words struck a chord, emphasizing how one's mindset can significantly influence their recovery journey.
The conference wasn't just about listening to speeches; it featured interactive workshops covering topics like fatherhood, family dynamics, tribal communities, and the red road. These sessions offered practical insights and fostered a sense of community among participants. Lea particularly highlights the work of the Native Dads Network, which is doing incredible things to support fathers and families in tribal communities. Jim adds his reflections, noting how events like these are vital for those in recovery.
They provide a platform to connect with others who understand their struggles and triumphs, offering new perspectives and renewed hope. This episode is a testament to the power of peer support, positive attitudes, and community connections in making the recovery journey a bit easier. Tune in to hear Lea and Jim’s heartfelt discussion and get inspired by the transformative power of collective healing.
