In this episode of 'No Thanks But Yes', Donald McDonald sits down with his old friend Joseph Hogan-Sanchez, the Director of Programs at Faces & Voices of Recovery. The conversation is as relaxed as it is enlightening, covering a wide range of topics from the authenticity of peer recovery support services to the unexpected joy of folding laundry and hitting the gym.
Joseph's insights shine a light on how embracing kindness, both towards oneself and others, can be transformative in the journey to recovery. He emphasizes the power of lived experience and the importance of those who've walked the path of addiction taking the lead in peer support roles.
