What happens after the drugs and alcohol are gone?
For many people, recovery isn't just about getting clean—it's about learning how to live again.
In this episode, Christian sits down with Melissa to explore the early days of recovery, from entering Drug Court and recovery housing to finding a home group, working the Twelve Steps, and discovering a community that made sobriety something to look forward to instead of endure.
Together they discuss structure, sponsorship, rebuilding confidence, overcoming fear, finding purpose, and why recovery can become a life filled with joy instead of simply surviving.
Whether you're just beginning your journey or have years in recovery, this conversation is a reminder that healing doesn't end with putting substances down—it begins with building a life you don't want to escape from.
