    In this episode, I discuss my experience in therapy...especially how it has supported my continued recovery from drug addiction.

  • Episode 25: Gimme Moe--First Meetings and Goosebumps

    Episode 25 is a very special episode...introducing you all to a new segment called "Gimme Moe." I will be bringing Moe from Episode 23 back to the show on a regular basis for his very own segment. Moe will discuss relevant issues in his recovery...or whatever he feels like talking about. It should be insightful and fun...maybe a little scary. 

    This week Moe discusses his early experience attending AA meetings. It will give you goosebumps. I promise.

    Enjoy.

  • Episode 23: Moe--An Alcoholic in Recovery--Reflection on the First 500 Days

    Episode 23 features my interview with Moe, who put an end to a long history of drug and alcohol abuse more than five hundred days ago. After a brush with rock bottom, Moe started going to AA meetings, mostly to earn some points with a particular judge...but he quickly realized that he was right where he needed to be. And then he just kept coming back. Moe's story is inspiring and full of lessons for us all.

    And there is plenty of good news and gratitude galore...as always.

      About Between the Lines Recovery

      From the publisher's feed

      Between the Lines Recovery is a platform for the stories of some of the unique people I have met during my journey through drug addiction and recovery. Some of the guests you may recognize from my memoir of the same name, but I will also interview some equally interesting people unrelated to that journey who have important stories to tell.
