Positivity is what people want. That success is much more the product of how things fit than the things themselves. Some people don't fit great into a 12-step room. That doesn't work for them. Some people don't fit great into one-on-one therapy. That doesn't always fit for them. But you're providing another fit for people that realize, like this young woman in the story you just told, that was the right fit for her. And that's a beautiful thing to provide another fit. One of my favorite things Casey always says is, you know, there's a million ways up Silver Mountain.
Ever felt like you're stuck in a never-ending cycle of chaos? Blu Robinson knows that feeling all too well. Growing up, Blu was constantly on the move, bouncing from one household to another due to his mother's unstable relationships. He found himself tangled in a web of lies and looking for connection in all the wrong places, like the party scene. But Blu's story doesn't end there.
In this episode of Project Recovery, he opens up about how he turned his life around and discovered a passion for helping others on their recovery journeys. Blu shares how therapy played a crucial role in helping him figure out who he really was. He also talks about the heart-wrenching process of mourning his late mother, with whom he had a complicated relationship.
His journey led him to create Addict II Athlete, a program that encourages those in recovery to embrace physical activity as a way to build discipline and community. Throughout the episode, Blu's resilience shines brightly. He went from a life filled with chaos to becoming a beacon of hope for others. His story is a powerful reminder that no matter how tumultuous your past may be, there is always a way to find purpose and help others do the same.
