Scott Leeper's Journey: From Addiction to Advocacy on the 217 Recovery Podcast
The unique thing about this book is we have three completely different perspectives on addiction, all with the same goal of fighting the stigma, helping people understand that recovering out loud is the best way to go right and creating a book as a resource for everybody.
What happens when you combine a raw personal story with a mission to fight addiction stigma? You get an episode of the 217 Recovery Podcast that's both moving and enlightening. In this episode, Corey Winfield and his co-host Marney Winfield sit down with Scott Leeper, co-author of 'Drowning in Addiction: Sink or Swim.' Scott opens up about his own battle with addiction and the path he took to recovery.
But it's not just about his story; it's about the broader impact of addiction on families and the community. Corey, Marney, and Scott engage in a heartfelt discussion about the importance of speaking out and sharing recovery journeys openly. They explore how writing can be a powerful tool for healing and helping others.
Scott emphasizes, 'We have three different perspectives on addiction in our book, but we're united in our goal to fight stigma and encourage open recovery.' This episode isn't just for those battling addiction; it's for anyone who wants to understand the power of vulnerability and the strength found in community support.
