Filling the Void: Mike Todd's Journey from Addiction to Recovery

What recovery did for me was fill that void from back when I was Years old, and I lost those people. And I'll say this, even my grandfather died in that period. I forgot about that, but he did a lot for a kid to deal with. So I find it, and I find that those voids from those people in Glenn or Cindy or Tammy, or these older, wiser folks that can walk with me and help me make better decisions, that I can listen to in meetings and get wisdom from, or just listen in general or bounce things off of, I have those people in my life Today, and that's what it's about.
Mike Todd, the voice behind the Recovery First Podcast, takes listeners on a deeply personal journey in this episode. He opens up about the profound sense of emptiness he felt after losing key family members during his childhood, a void he tried to fill with substances. Mike doesn't just talk about his struggles; he shares how recovery helped him find a spiritual path and a supportive community that transformed his life.
His story is a testament to the power of connection and the importance of having a solid support system when battling addiction. Throughout the episode, Mike highlights local initiatives and community-based recovery organizations in Greenville, South Carolina, and beyond. These groups are making a real difference, providing the support and resources people need to reclaim their lives.
Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Mike's candid reflections offer hope and practical advice for finding your own path to recovery.
