MUST LISTEN EPISODE

This is what it sounds like when real relationships don’t end at graduation.

In this episode of the Turning Winds Podcast, host Kevin Zundl sits down with Carl Baisden and Enoch Stump to explore one of the most critical but often overlooked phases of a teen’s recovery journey: the transition home after treatment. Together, they unpack what truly happens when teens leave a structured environment and re-enter family life, school, and social circles.

From relapse prevention and aftercare planning to the role of alumni mentorship and emotional resilience, this episode offers parents and professionals a behind-the-scenes look at how Turning Winds supports lasting change. The focus is not only on progress during treatment but also on sustaining it long after graduation.

Whether your teen is currently in care or preparing to come home, this conversation offers practical insight and inspiration for navigating what comes next.
