I think, like my overall selfishness around, like how I would mask things...was probably the root- is just like my lack of honesty because of the fear and me being scared, like being fearful, that I was an alcoholic and an addict, you know, because that meant like I'm never going to be able to use this stuff successfully, yeah, or just have a beer, you know.
Ever wondered how a single person’s journey can transform countless lives? Meet Robert White, a man who turned his struggle with addiction into a mission of hope and recovery. In this episode of 'Braving the Journey', host Zach Mathers sits down with Robert to unravel his compelling story. Robert's battle with addiction began at the tender age of 12, leading him down a dark path filled with alcohol and illicit drugs like heroin.
Despite numerous failed attempts at recovery and a stint in prison, Robert found a renewed sense of purpose through the 12 Steps program while incarcerated. His story is not just about personal redemption but also about creating a supportive community for others. In 2012, out of gratitude for his own recovery, Robert and his family founded Any Length Retreat. This holistic treatment center focuses on community support and the 12 Steps to help men and their families find lifelong recovery.
Robert’s values of compassion, family, and love are woven into the fabric of the retreat’s daily practices. Throughout the episode, he emphasizes the importance of having a safe space to be vulnerable and honest, which he believes is crucial for healing. His message is clear: we are never meant to walk through life alone. By sharing his own experiences and reflections, Robert aims to inspire listeners to take action towards their own recovery journeys.
Tune in to hear how community support and honesty can pave the way to overcoming addiction.
