Mishka Shubaly: Redefining Recovery Beyond the 12 Steps
I found great peace in doing so and I just got to start, because I'm not, I'm an amateur mechanic.
Imagine questioning the traditional path to recovery and finding your own way through the maze of addiction. That's exactly what bestselling author and musician Mishka Shubaly does in this episode of '12 Questions'. Hosts Anna Valenzuela and Dave Yates sit down with Mishka to ask him twelve thought-provoking questions about his life, struggles, and triumphs over addiction. Mishka doesn't hold back as he challenges the notion that the 12 Steps are the only way to achieve sobriety.
Instead, he offers a fresh perspective on what recovery can look like for different individuals. From discussing the role of psychedelics in his journey to dealing with anxiety and breaking free from self-limiting beliefs, Mishka's story is both raw and inspiring. He also touches on the importance of forgiveness, personal growth, and the creative process in his recovery.
Throughout the conversation, there's a strong emphasis on connection and empathy, making this episode a must-listen for anyone interested in alternative paths to healing. Whether you're navigating your own recovery journey or supporting someone who is, Mishka's insights provide a valuable reminder that there's no one-size-fits-all solution to overcoming addiction.
