Addiction is a temporary, problem and is NOT a disease.
Ever felt like traditional addiction treatments just don’t cut it? You're not alone. In this episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions', host Michelle Dunbar sits down with Mark Scheeren, the Chairman of the Baldwin Research Institute and Co-founder of The Freedom Model Retreats. They chat about Mark’s fascinating journey from his early days in Alcoholics Anonymous to pioneering a new approach to addiction recovery.
Mark opens up about his experiences in AA, why he decided to leave, and how that led him to create The Freedom Model, a non-12 step residential model that challenges conventional wisdom. They also touch on the positive drive principle, which highlights the power of personal choice in overcoming addiction. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about alternatives to traditional rehab and 12-step programs.
Mark and Michelle’s candid discussion offers fresh perspectives and practical insights for those seeking a different path to recovery.
