When you get down to the bottom, the very bottom, and you finally make peace with the fact that you have a serious problem, you look at yourself and you go: okay, I'm going to die if I don't stop.
What does it take to turn a life of chaos into one of purpose? Jon Wood, owner of Oasis Recovery Center, knows firsthand. In this episode, host James Byous sits down with Jon as he recounts his tumultuous journey through addiction and recovery. Jon's story isn't just about hitting rock bottom; it's about the climb back up.
From wandering the country and bouncing between treatment centers to finally finding his footing and helping others do the same, Jon’s path is both harrowing and inspiring. He opens up about his battle with Oxycontin addiction, the despair of losing friends, and the pivotal moments that led him to a life of sobriety.
But it’s not all gloom and doom—Jon shares the joy he’s found in reconnecting with his passions and the spiritual awakening that has been central to his recovery. This episode is a testament to the power of community and the human spirit's capacity for resilience. Whether you’re on your own journey or supporting someone else, Jon’s story offers a beacon of hope.
