Nick Ciadella: Building Bridges to Recovery with Never Alone

When I was willing to be honest about the nature of my problem, that was the beginnings of recovery. The turning point was when I found acceptance, accountability, and willingness to take all the suggestions. The most important part was like I had a willingness to find out. I was willing to see what, if this would work for me, like if recovery would work for me.
Imagine feeling completely lost in the darkness of addiction, only to find a beacon of hope in the form of a supportive community. In this heartfelt episode of Recovery Nuggets, host David Clemen sits down with Nick Ciadella, one of the founders of Never Alone Recovery. Nick opens up about his personal battle with addiction and the creation of a non-profit that aims to help others navigate their own recovery journeys.
Never Alone Recovery offers free resources such as treatment program matching, rehab placement, intervention assistance, and educational support for those grappling with addiction and their loved ones. Nick shares his thoughts on the critical role of evidence-based treatment and how both genetics and environment play into addiction. He also dives into the emotional aspects of recovery, discussing the importance of honesty, acceptance, accountability, and willingness.
Listeners will hear about the challenges and rewards of building relationships in recovery and the struggle to find self-worth and face shame. Nick's reflections on interventions, both human and divine, add a layer of depth to his story. This episode is a testament to the power of community and the belief that no one should have to face addiction alone.
