We don't do anything to maintain abstinence or recovery. It's right here on the thing. Or hit the QR code if you're on a PC right here. You can see it on the screen. It's recorded. So if you can't make the event time, the live time, you can watch it at your leisure.
Ever wondered how two people can break away from the norms and create something revolutionary? In this episode, Mark Scheeren and Michelle Dunbar take you on a personal journey from their early days in AA families to founding The Freedom Model. They recount their experiences of witnessing the pitfalls of traditional treatment and therapy, which often did more harm than good.
This led them to develop a new approach that challenges the idea of addiction as a disease and questions the effectiveness of 12-step programs. Instead, they advocate for a method that empowers individuals to reclaim their lives without relying on steps, meetings, or rehabs. If you're curious about how they broke free from conventional recovery methods and what makes The Freedom Model different, this episode is a must-listen.
