In this episode of 'Recovery Coast to Coast', Neil Scott takes listeners on an insightful tour of one of America's most successful women's treatment programs.
The journey begins with Lyn Wilder, husband of the founder Pamela Wilder, intake leader Victoria Herbert, and board member Ann Permazon, who share their unique perspectives on the program's history and vision. Their stories highlight the importance of gender-specific treatment and family support in the recovery process. In the second hour, Neil chats with Emili Barbour and Billie Shento-Litmin, both recovery support specialists, and Nellie Smith, a volunteer car partner.
These inspiring women discuss the power of alumni programs, the role of meditation and self-care in maintaining sobriety, and the critical support systems that help women reclaim their lives.
