The bright side of addiction is recovery. We're going to speak with a leader and a legend, Dr Cal Anderson.
What does it take to be celebrated as a legend in the recovery community? In this episode of 'Recovery Coast to Coast', Neil Scott sits down with Dr. Cal Anderson, who received a standing ovation from over 900 attendees at the 48th Annual TAAP Conference on Addiction Studies. Dr.
Anderson, a past president of The Texas Association Of Addiction Treatment Professionals, has spent nearly 40 years in long-term recovery and has made significant contributions to the field, including creating the collegiate recovery program that's now used across the United States. Through their conversation, you'll hear about Dr. Anderson's journey and the vital role fellowship plays in recovery. He discusses how building a supportive community can enhance recovery and reduce relapse rates.

Adding an extra layer of inspiration, award-winning actress Ali McGraw shares her thoughts on freedom. Her reflections provide a poignant counterpoint to Dr. Anderson's story, highlighting the emotional and spiritual aspects of recovery. Whether you're seeking encouragement, looking for practical advice, or simply interested in powerful stories of resilience, this episode promises to deliver.
