We never know where it's going to land us. We're all just walking each other home. - Kathy
Ever felt bombarded by mixed messages about addiction? This episode of Recovery Elevator is a breath of fresh air. Hosts Paul Churchill and Kristopher Oyen bring together Nate, Eric, Beth, Hunter, and Kathy to share their raw and real experiences with alcohol addiction and recovery. Kris kicks things off by addressing the billions spent on alcohol advertising that glamorizes drinking while subtly shaming those who struggle.
He reflects on his own journey, highlighting the moment an addiction specialist made him feel less alone, sparking his path to recovery. Today, Kris is not just a host but a beacon of hope for many listeners. The episode also covers Kris’s experience at the 6th Annual Recovery Reinvented event, where he was inspired by Dr. Bruce Perry’s talk on the power of storytelling in reshaping beliefs about addiction. The guests' stories are the heart of this episode.
Each one dives into their personal battles and triumphs, illustrating that recovery is not a one-size-fits-all journey. From dealing with trauma to navigating cultural influences, they offer invaluable insights into overcoming the hurdles of sobriety. Kathy’s words resonate deeply: 'We never know where it's going to land us. We're all just walking each other home'. This episode is a testament to the power of community and shared experiences in the fight against addiction.
Whether you’re newly sober, sober-curious, or supporting a loved one, this episode offers a compelling look at the multifaceted nature of recovery.
