Tyler Belgarde: A Story of Redemption and Resilience

Man, I absolutely, just like I said, like that when we talked about in the beginning, you know, just you gotta absolutely forgive yourself, not be so hard on yourself and accept what the reality is.
What does it take to turn a life around after addiction? In this episode of 'Sitting with Sean', Tyler Belgarde from Anchorage, Alaska, opens up about his tumultuous journey from early drug exposure to becoming a beacon of hope in the recovery community. Originally from Spokane, Washington, Tyler's story is a rollercoaster of highs and lows. He shares candidly about how his substance use began at a young age, leading him down a path of criminal activity and legal troubles.
But Tyler's tale isn't just about the darkness; it's about the light that followed. After a transformative experience in jail, Tyler was accepted into the Anchorage Wellness Court, where he encountered Moral Reconation Therapy (MRT). This therapy played a crucial role in reshaping his identity and outlook on life. Tyler also speaks passionately about reconnecting with the Alaska Therapeutic Court Alumni and how becoming a group facilitator has been pivotal in his ongoing recovery.
His love for collecting shoes even makes an appearance, adding a personal touch to his inspiring narrative. Tyler's story is a testament to the power of forgiveness, self-acceptance, and the support of a community. His journey underscores the idea that no matter how far one has fallen, there is always a way back up. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Tyler's experiences offer valuable insights and hope.
Join Sean and Tyler for an episode that is as heartwarming as it is eye-opening.
