Courage in Recovery: Michelle Ritucci's Journey of Bravery and Openness
“Secrets keep us sick. If you're going to work somewhere that's not conducive to your recovery, then peace out, because you shouldn't have to feel shame and you shouldn't have to hide who you are.”
What does it mean to be truly brave in recovery? In this episode of 'Journey Unveiled', host Michael Maassel sits down with Michelle Ritucci, the Alumni Experience Coordinator at Vertava Health Massachusetts. Michelle opens up about her own recovery journey, emphasizing the power of not hiding your struggles and the positive impact it can have on others.

They also tackle the stigma surrounding addiction, encouraging listeners to break the silence and raise awareness. By choosing recovery-friendly workplaces and shedding shame, Michelle believes we can create a more supportive environment for those in recovery. Tune in for an inspiring and heartfelt discussion that highlights the courage it takes to live openly and authentically.
