It's stepping outside of your comfort zone, you know, and, like public speaking, hopping in the ring and being an announcer, doing poetry like these are all like unorthodox things that when you tell somebody their own fears, they're projecting on you.
Matt Ganem's story is one of resilience, creativity, and heartfelt advocacy. Having been in recovery for 14 years, Matt has dedicated his life to helping others battle addiction. On this episode of 'Knockin' Doorz Down', host Jason LaChance dives into Matt's experiences, shedding light on the complexities of addiction and the power of recovery. Matt's journey began in fifth grade, and he’s been through it all—from the depths of addiction to becoming an award-winning poet and public speaker.
He’s even been named Recovery Advocate of the Year by the Massachusetts Organization of Addiction and Recovery. But it’s not just about his accolades; it’s about the lives he’s touched along the way. Matt discusses the challenges of navigating relationships while in recovery, especially in a post-COVID world. He shares how stepping out of his comfort zone and embracing creativity has been crucial to his healing process.
Whether it's through poetry or public speaking, Matt emphasizes the importance of expressing emotions in a healthy way. The episode also delves into the dangers of fentanyl and its devastating impact on communities. Matt's insights are not just informative; they’re a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is. If you’re looking for a mix of inspiration, practical advice, and a few laughs, this episode is a must-listen.
