“Recovery has a voice. So it's developed more and more, just like your, recovery develops more and more.”

In this episode of 'Friends In Recovery', hosts Mike Miles, Ed Chionchio Sr., and Richie Lombardi chat with Tony V and Woody Giessmann about their personal journeys to sobriety and the unique recovery facility they co-founded, Right Turn, in Watertown, Massachusetts. Woody, who has been sober for 28 years, debunks the myth that creativity and addiction are intertwined.
He explains how Right Turn caters specifically to individuals in the arts, from musicians to comedians, offering them a safe space to recover without sacrificing their creative spirit. Tony V, a former rock and roll musician, shares his own path to sobriety and how Right Turn played a crucial role in his recovery. The episode highlights the importance of specialized recovery programs and how they can make a significant difference in someone's journey to sobriety.
