Finding New Waters

In this episode of Finding New Waters, B. Reeves sits down with Stefan Bate, partner and co-CEO of Jaywalker Lodge in Carbondale, Colorado, for a powerful conversation about addiction, surrender, treatment, community, and what long-term recovery actually looks like.

Stefan shares his own journey from being labeled a “chronic relapsor” and “treatment resistant alcoholic” after multiple treatment attempts to eventually finding lasting recovery at Jaywalker Lodge. He explains why he could get an “A in treatment” but still had no idea how to live in recovery — and why the four-month Jaywalker model gave him something traditional 28-day treatment had not: time to actually practice living sober in the real world.

The conversation explores one of Stefan’s strongest beliefs: “you get sober in treatment, but you find recovery in community.” Stefan explains why treatment alone is not enough, why consequence-based motivation eventually burns out, and why joy, relationships, purpose, connection, and a meaningful life are not side effects of recovery — “they are the medicine.”

Stefan also discusses surrender, hopelessness, why intelligent and successful people often try to outthink addiction, the pressure men feel to immediately rebuild their careers after treatment, and why slowing down can actually create a stronger foundation for lifelong recovery.

The episode closes with the newly launched Jaywalker Foundation and its mission to create greater access to extended recovery care for people who need programs like Jaywalker but do not have the financial resources to afford them.

In this episode of Finding New Waters, host B. Reeves sits down with attorney and Crosstalk Podcast co-host Jim Boland (Jim B.). Celebrating 13 years of continuous sobriety, Jim shares his personal recovery journey from growing up in an Irish Catholic family in Chicago to navigating self-sabotage in college and law school, hitting an emotional rock bottom, and eventually rebuilding a life centered on deep fellowship and purpose.

Jim and B. Reeves discuss what it truly means to break "crosstalk" rules for the sake of honest connection, the power of high-accountability step work, overcoming deep-seated resentments, and managing seasonal depression and emotional sobriety. Jim also reflects on how moving to Winston-Salem, North Carolina and launching his cloud-based law practice allowed him to build a thriving sober community and help others find their way.

In this episode of Finding New Waters, host B. Reeves sits down with world-renowned ultramarathoner, author, speaker, and recovery advocate Charlie Engle. Celebrating 34 years of continuous sobriety, Charlie shares his incredible journey from a six-day crack cocaine binge that ended with bullet holes and handcuffs in Wichita, Kansas, to running across the entire Sahara Desert—completing two marathons a day for 111 days straight alongside film producer Matt Damon.

Charlie and B. Reeves dive deep into how an obsessive personality can be transformed from a destructive force into a life-giving superpower. Charlie discusses using extreme physical endurance as a tool for catharsis and self-discovery, navigating the concept of "Anchors and Beacons" in relationships, making peace with past mistakes, and preparing for his most ambitious expedition yet: traveling from the lowest place on Earth (the Dead Sea) to the highest summit (Mount Everest). Plus, Charlie explains his work with Anonymous Health, leveraging AI technology so treatment centers never miss a call from someone seeking help.

Celebrating over 15 years of continuous sobriety, Tara shares her raw personal story—from growing up in New Jersey, getting sent to South Florida at 15, and managing her own apartment at 16, to facing jail stints and finally committing to a full continuum of care in 2009.

Why are traditional parenting methods and standard therapies failing today’s teenagers? In this episode of Finding New Waters, host B.Reeves sits down with Michael Carroll, Director of Outreach at Family First Adolescent Services, to decode the neurological roots of adolescent trauma, severe behavioral dysregulation, and neurodivergence.

Michael reveals how a teenager’s brain in survival mode stops processing executive decisions, why modern social dynamics (including cyber blackmail) are triggering acute nervous system responses, and how specialized clinical approaches like polyvagal theory and sensory regulation are successfully rewiring adolescent behavior when everything else has failed.

• Michael Carroll is the Director of Outreach for the Carolinas and Capital Region at Family First Adolescent Services. Driven by his own recovery journey and his experiences parenting a neurodivergent child, Michael has dedicated his career to helping families navigate complex developmental trauma and find life-changing clinical support.

In this milestone episode of Finding New Waters, host B. Reeves and CEO Justin McClendon sit down with a true legend in the addiction treatment space, Terry Shapiro. Celebrating an incredible 42 years of continuous sobriety on the exact day of this recording, Terry shares his riveting journey from a passionate left-handed college pitching prospect in Chicago to crashing and burning on a baseball road trip in Joplin, Missouri. After his actions shut the door on his dreams of being drafted, he found recovery, earned his master's degree in counseling, and unexpectedly found his way into the major leagues anyway—scouting international talent for the Atlanta Braves, Cincinnati Reds, and Chicago Cubs.

Terry details what it was like maintaining a 12-step program while scouting in Colombia during the turbulent Pablo Escobar era, and how he eventually merged his two passions to help pro athletes struggling with addiction. Now serving as the Director of Strategic Alliances for Banyan Treatment Centers, Terry discusses Banyan's massive expansion to 19+ programs across 9 states, their mission to accept state Medicaid and HMOs, and why a long-term structured continuum of care is vital for true neurological healing.

"We have to turn deep personal desperation into long-term purpose."

In this powerful episode of Finding New Waters, host B. Reeves and CEO Justin McClendon sit down with Glynis Franz, the inspiring Co-Founder of Peak Path Health and host of The Peak of Possibility podcast. Glynis opens up about her raw, deeply moving journey through teenage heroin addiction, juvenile detention, and serving time in federal prison.

After overcoming massive legal obstacles and personal trauma, Glynis completely transformed her life. Today, she channels her experiences into providing elite clinical support for high-functioning professionals and executives at her premier residential facility in the Hollywood Hills. In this conversation, Glynis dives deep into the specific challenges women face regarding trauma and shame in recovery, why authentic fellowship must come before standard institutional approaches, and how to build a community that helps individuals rediscover their true purpose.
