In this edition of The Way Out I’m honored to bring you my interview with composer, performing artist, coach for musicians and artists in recovery, and person in long term recovery Skip Sams. Skip shares his journey

to and through recovery to this point with candor and insight that is rooted in humility, self-awareness, spirituality, and healthy doses of humor sprinkled throughout a story that is about Skip coming to grips with his addiction, mental health, sexuality, and ultimately finding and embracing Recovery. For Skip, Recovery is very much about recovering his spirituality and his creative purpose using his gifts, talents, skills, and abilities which has now led Skip to live the spiritual axiom that in order to keep what we have in Recovery we have to give it a way, Skip now helps others in Recovery discover their own creative purpose through his Creative Purpose Project so listen up.
