When you say the word spiritual or god or prayer, people start to panic, and oh, I'm going to hurt somebody's feelings. I don't understand why we can't have both. So it's this concept of, we can do it as men together: god in our life, a spiritual being in our life. So it was a pretty cool experience and that changed my rites of passage.
Todd Stumbo, CEO of Blue Ridge Mountain Recovery Center, shares his compelling journey from addiction to recovery in this episode of Recovery Unscripted. Growing up in eastern Kentucky, Todd never imagined that addiction would be a part of his life. However, years of substance abuse led him to a breaking point where he realized he needed help. Through the support of a 12-step program and a newfound connection with a higher power, Todd began his path to recovery.
Now, as a leader in the recovery community, Todd is passionate about helping other men redefine what it means to be a man. He advocates for a holistic approach to treatment that combines clinical methods with spiritual experiences. Todd believes that true recovery involves treating the whole person, which includes addressing family dynamics, emotional health, and physical well-being.
In this episode, Todd discusses the unique rites of passage that shape men during their youth and how these can impact their journey into adulthood. He explores what happens when men fail to meet the unconscious standards they set for themselves and how embracing spirituality can help them find a new sense of purpose. Todd's story is not just about overcoming addiction; it's about redefining manhood and finding strength through vulnerability and spirituality.
This episode offers valuable insights for anyone looking to understand the complex journey of recovery and the importance of integrating different aspects of life into the healing process. Tune in to be inspired by Todd's transformative experience and his dedication to helping others find their own path to recovery.
