Jordan Goldberg: Rethinking Recovery with Harm Reduction and Medication-Assisted Treatment

I am not in recovery because I am not sober, because I'm still getting high. I feel wonderful, right, serotonin, dopamine, it flows down all that stuff.
What if recovery wasn't just about quitting cold turkey? Jordan Goldberg, a seasoned recovery support specialist, takes a deep dive into harm reduction and medication-assisted treatment in this thought-provoking episode of the Recovery Matters! Podcast. Goldberg, who has walked the path of addiction himself, shares how these often misunderstood methods have played a pivotal role in his journey towards a healthier, safer life.
He challenges the traditional notion that sobriety is the sole indicator of recovery success, instead advocating for a more personalized approach. Feeling wonderful and in control of his life, Goldberg's story is a testament to the power of alternative recovery methods. Throughout the conversation, he underscores the importance of leveraging available resources and building strong relationships with clinicians and other professionals in the field.
He also calls for a shift in mindset, urging listeners to question their own beliefs about what recovery should look like. Whether you're on your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and fresh perspectives on what it means to reclaim your life from addiction.
