Facing Fear: A New Approach to Addiction Recovery

Fear is so connected to who we believe ourselves to be and above beyond, they are taking people from the street and simply showing them respect, not allowing them to disrespect themselves with the fears they're comfortable with.
Ever wondered how fear shapes the journey of addiction recovery? In this episode of 'Recover Yourself', host MartinJon sits down with Dan Hostetler, the executive director of Above and Beyond and a board member of SMART Recovery USA. They dive into the often-overlooked role that fear plays when someone first steps into a treatment center. Unlike many traditional centers, Above and Beyond focuses on reframing this fear to empower individuals right from the start.
Dan shares his insights on why many treatment centers fall short and how Above and Beyond's unique approach makes a difference. Instead of letting fear fester, they aim to address it head-on, helping clients replace self-judgment with self-respect. This conversation isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about transforming the way we think about recovery itself. From the moment you walk through the doors of Above and Beyond, you're met with respect and understanding, rather than judgment.
Dan emphasizes that the initial interactions at a treatment center can either validate your fears or help dispel them. This episode offers a fresh perspective on addiction recovery, making it a must-listen for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. So, if you're curious about how to turn fear into a stepping stone rather than a stumbling block, tune in. This episode promises to challenge your preconceptions and offer practical advice for anyone on the path to recovery.
