The moment that you beat your addiction, you feel as...there's nothing I cannot do.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around from addiction to achieving incredible physical feats? In this episode of the Addict II Athlete podcast, Corey Harrington opens up about his remarkable journey from the depths of addiction to the triumph of completing an Ironman race. Corey, once a promising professional baseball player, faced emotional and physical setbacks that led him down a dark path of substance abuse. But his story didn’t end there.
With raw honesty, Corey shares the pivotal moments that pushed him toward recovery, emphasizing the critical role of vulnerability and trust in his healing process. Coach Blu and Corey discuss the secrecy often surrounding addiction and the fear of judgment that keeps many trapped. They explore how Corey chose to 'intentionally walk' into recovery, much like a strategic move in baseball, by letting others in and holding himself accountable.
Fitness became a cornerstone of his sobriety, helping him rebuild not just his body but his mind and spirit as well. Training for an Ironman race presented immense mental and emotional challenges, but it also brought profound self-discovery and a renewed sense of purpose. Corey’s story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the transformative power of sharing one’s struggles.
Whether you’re battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of inspiration and practical insights that could make all the difference. Tune in to hear how Corey turned his mess into a message of hope and strength.
