Campus Chronicles: Todd Zalkins on Student Recovery and Rediscovering Passions

We've all been down that road of going through what they have. If you don't mind my asking, I've been sober now just over three and a half years.
Todd Zalkins, the dynamic public speaker, interventionist, author, and documentary filmmaker, takes us on an enlightening trip to Ohio's college campuses in this episode of 'The Z-Man Podcast'. Visiting the Collegiate Recovery Community at Kent State and the University of Akron, Todd dives deep into the world of student recovery. With a blend of humor and heartfelt conversations, he engages with students who are navigating their journey to sobriety during their formative college years.
They discuss the challenges of addiction, the benefits of staying sober in college, and the vital role peer support plays in maintaining recovery. Todd shares his own story of sobriety, having been sober for over three and a half years, and how it transformed his life. He also touches on his acclaimed documentary 'The Long Way Back' and the impactful Bradley's House t-shirt campaign. A notable highlight is the discussion on how music and recovery intertwine.
Todd opens up about losing his passion for music during his addiction and rediscovering it as a powerful force in his recovery. He encourages newly sober musicians to reconnect with their creativity and embrace healthier lifestyles. This episode is packed with inspiring stories, practical advice, and a hopeful outlook for anyone on the path to recovery. Whether you're a student, a musician, or someone seeking encouragement in their sobriety journey, Todd's candid conversations offer a blend of wisdom and warmth.
