You willing to kind of give up for your own mental health recovery, a job, a home, a roof over your head, and get rid of, to a certain degree, the abundance of life for what most would perceive as scarcity, but in actuality, you were creating abundance.
In this compelling episode of the Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson sits down with Stewart Powell, a resilient individual who has triumphed over substance use disorder. Stewart’s journey to recovery is not only a personal victory but also a testament to the power of community and outdoor adventures. As Stewart shares his story, listeners are taken through the struggles and triumphs that define his path.
Initially caught in the grips of addiction, Stewart found himself retreating from the activities he once loved, such as hiking and biking. His turning point came with a decision to confront his problems instead of running from them, leading him to a rehab program and eventually to a sober living community in San Diego. Through his recovery, Stewart discovered the profound impact of connecting with others and engaging in meaningful activities.
His hike along the Pacific Crest Trail was not just a celebration of his sobriety but also an awareness campaign for the Phoenix program, which supports individuals in recovery through community events and activities. Stewart emphasizes that recovery is about making choices and finding abundance in what might seem like scarcity. He highlights the importance of staying connected, whether through programs like Addict to Athlete or through personal initiatives like leading workouts in Vernal, Utah.
Coach Blu and Stewart’s conversation is a reminder that recovery is a continuous journey, supported by community involvement and personal resolve. Stewart’s story encourages listeners to invest in loved ones, ask questions, and explore the resources available through programs like Addict to Athlete and the Phoenix. This episode serves as an inspiring guide for anyone seeking to turn their mess into their message.
