This is the MK-ULTRA part of episode 15. The entire episode is LONG episode (over an hour!) and a lot of people have emailed me to suggest that I make it into two parts. So this is my happy medium. Enjoy.

The Summer Sessions

Do you have plans for this summer?

What will you be doing to support yourself through recovery?

Whether you’re years deep into your healing or still on the fence as to whether or not sobriety is for you, come join the community every Monday beginning June 22 for ongoing FREE VIRTUAL WORKSHOPS.

June 22 kicks off our Monday session and continues each Monday through the fall. It’s probably the most creative and the hardest of the entire sessions— it’s called “I AM”.

And its a creative writing workshop where no previous writing experience whatsoever to join —but you do need to be willing to rewrite your story, willing to make deep connections, be able to be honest, and be ready — because it’s intense — to finally heal from the darkest parts of your life.

There’s no other workshop that even exists let alone comes close to what I’ve developed and created for you guys. And it’s the perfect precursor to the course!

Hope to see you Mondays starting June 22 ✌🏽

Prepare to be blown out of the water with this episode— inspired by my most recent read:

Anatomy of an Epidemic: Magic Bullets, Psychiatric Drugs, and the Astonishing Rise of Mental Illness in America by Robert Whitaker

🧑🏻‍⚕️And one little known study in Western Lapland, Finland that took place between 1992 and 1993, and whose incredible implications have proven to be globally reaching and…get this…WILDLY SUCCESSFUL.

‼️As in so successful that the region is watching at schizophrenia is becoming eradicated 👀‼️

If we here in the United Stated quieter ego and chose to be curious about such potentially game changers in mental health, we just might see a major shift with people regaining their confidence and learning to trust their judgement again.

As always THANK YOU for listening, for being engaged. Thank you for supporting The Real Recovery Podcast on YouTube and for being such an integral asset to our community.

Keep protecting your peace at any and all costs,

Loss of collagen.

Dark Circles in your eyes.

Crows Feet.

Sagging Skin.

Loss of volume.

These are all real life, long term effects of drug use.

And while we can’t go back in time to make better choices, we can use our power of agency to choose ourselves from today onward.

Let me tell you about my friends at Next OV Skin here in The Pacific Northwest 😍

Being in recovery is ‘everything, all the time’ from those first few desperate hours all the way through to remission —life never stops.

And by the time we have a moment to breathe and really catch a glimpse of ourselves in the mirror, the face looking back isn’t at all who we remember nor is it an accurate reflection of how great we feel inside now that we’re living a healthy, clean, and sober life.

⚠️WARNING⚠️ This episode talks in depth and frequently about sex & intimacy and drug addiction. All opinions expressed are that of my own and contrived from the cumulative past experiences I’ve had. ‼️My opinions are not medical or legal advice and should not be used in place of either. But also…don’t say I didn’t try to warn you about the dangers of methadone. ‼️

Join me for a story time style episode where I spill EVERYTHING that no one will tell you about methadone clinics and being on a methadone program. It’s been nearly 10 YEARS since getting kicked off and it was the BEST, most critical factor that became my catalyst for REAL RECOVERY and being able to celebrate 9 YEARS of recovery this spring.

It’s not for everyone but if it helps you, if it has given you your life back then STAY THE COURSE!

Just know ALL of the facts. And always be aware that there are other evidence based routes of recovery available. If you need some guidance or are having trouble knowing where to start, email me:
