Show Notes

Altruism is a natural side effect of recovery. Many of us have discovered that once we enter into recovery, there is no greater gift than to share what we have found with those that are still seeking their way. Candice invites YPR National Chapter Director Tara Moseley Hyde and Louisville, KY Chapter Lead. Jenni Kelly to the show to discuss how their experience starting out as volunteers with Young People in Recovery has brought meaning and purpose into their lives and how their volunteer experiences have shifted the trajectory of their careers as they were able to find spaces where they could apply their passions into the work they do.
