Sober Faust: Finding Strength and Sobriety Through Jump Roping

I just haven't put the rope down ever since. Oh, it was buddy Lee, the craziest jump rope in the world.
What if a simple jump rope could be a lifeline in the battle against addiction? In this episode of the Trauma Informed Podcast, Jeff Friedman chats with Fausto Castellanos, better known as Sober Faust. Faust opens up about his journey from the depths of addiction and trauma to a place of recovery and resilience, all with the help of a jump rope.
He shares how meeting his mentor, Jump Rope Master Buddy Lee, transformed his approach to sobriety and provided him with a unique tool for both mental and physical health. Throughout their conversation, Faust delves into his experiences with sexual abuse and the vital role that community support has played in his recovery. As a case manager and counselor, Faust now dedicates his life to helping others find their own paths to healing.
His story is a testament to the power of unconventional methods in overcoming life's toughest challenges. Tune in to hear how jump roping became more than just a workout for Faust—it became a symbol of hope and recovery.
