Rethinking Addiction: Zach Rhoads on Alternatives to AA

AA is completely non-scientific, and it's dominant in what we call recovery.
Ever feel like the traditional recovery methods just don’t cut it? In this engaging episode of 'Safe Recovery', host Monica Richardson sits down with Zach Rhoads, an addiction coach, behavioral specialist, and science writer from Vermont. Zach is the mind behind the Young Justice Podcast and is about to launch a new show, 'The Social Exchange', which promises to tackle a wide range of topics including social psychology, politics, and neuroscience, all through the lens of addiction and recovery.
This conversation is not just about breaking free from the 12-step mold; it’s about redefining what recovery can look like. Zach shares his personal journey through addiction and emphasizes the critical role of human connection in the healing process. He challenges the stigmatizing labels often placed on those struggling with addiction and advocates for a more compassionate approach. The discussion also dives into the history of the war on drugs and highlights the need for political discourse around addiction policies.
If you’re looking for fresh perspectives and practical advice on recovery, this episode is a must-listen. It’s perfect for anyone seeking alternatives to traditional methods or simply wanting to understand more about the complexities of addiction.
