Dallas Wings Recovery Night: Shining a Spotlight on Sobriety in Sports
Our community must remain vigilant and dedicated to the recovery process by helping people address these preventable and treatable conditions and support individuals in recovery as well as their families, because together we are stronger.
Professional sports have long championed various causes, but addiction and sobriety advocacy often remain in the shadows. The Dallas Wings, a WNBA team, are changing that narrative with their groundbreaking Recovery Night. In this episode of M2 The Rock, host Michael Molthan sits down with Jordan Baccus, an account executive for the Dallas Wings, to discuss this pioneering event and its impact on the community.
Recovery Night is more than just a basketball game; it's a celebration of sobriety and a testament to the power of community support in overcoming addiction. Jordan Baccus, who has her own journey with addiction and recovery, saw a gap in advocacy within professional sports and took the initiative to fill it.
With the backing of the Dallas Wings and local organizations, she turned her vision into reality, creating a safe and supportive space for those in recovery to enjoy a night out. Michael Molthan, who has been sober for over a decade, emphasizes the importance of surrounding oneself with understanding and supportive individuals. The conversation highlights how events like Recovery Night can foster a sense of belonging and encouragement for those battling addiction.
The Dallas Wings Recovery Night stands as a powerful example of how professional sports can drive positive change. By spotlighting addiction and sobriety, the Dallas Wings are not just breaking barriers; they're building a community where recovery is celebrated.
