New Beginnings: Emma and Thomas' Recovery Journey at McShin Foundation
It's peer-to-peer, which I've never got to experience before, which I like because it's not like you're talking to a doctor or therapist or someone who's just read a book on how to relate, like they actually relate, which that was.
In this heartfelt episode of 'Get in the Herd', host Nathan Mitchell sits down with Emma and Thomas, two newcomers to the McShin Foundation. As they navigate the early stages of their recovery, Emma and Thomas open up about their personal battles and the pivotal role that the McShin community has played in their journey. They reflect on the importance of finding a supportive network, especially during the isolating times of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Emma shares her struggles with self-acceptance and how connecting with peers has helped her find hope. Thomas discusses the challenges he faced before joining the foundation and the relief he felt upon discovering a community that truly understands his struggles. Both express immense gratitude for the volunteers and alumni who have been instrumental in their recovery process.
This episode offers a candid look into the lives of those just starting their path to sobriety, highlighting the significance of support, community, and self-acceptance. Tune in to hear Emma and Thomas' inspiring stories and learn more about the resources available at the McShin Foundation.
