What is great about RAW Recovery is that we let the speaker talk on whatever they decide as long as it stays in the scope of recovery and today we hit it on the head. I do not want to spoil the surprise but I think this episode covers a very needed topics!  Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah C Host: Dion Miller trudgingtogether@gmail.com www.trudgingtogether.com All rights reserved.

Everything happens in Gods time..... My guest today is Jason and we have been trying to do his podcast for close to two years now LOL Yet, it happened when it was suppose to. Jason has a great story and I love his efforts on reintegration for those that are suffering and meeting others where they are at.  Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah C Host: Dion Miller trudgingtogether@gmail.com www.trudgingtogether.com All rights reserved

Passing what we have learned is the bases of the AA program. These can be presented in various ways and sometimes can feel confusing. Amber is bringing us 5 suggested things to help. These are suggestions that we know work and we hope that we can make it a little more simple to understand.    Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah C Host: Dion Miller and Amber Rose  trudgingtogether@gmail.com www.trudgingtogether.com All rights reserved.

Today we have the Director of The Pueblo Rescue Mission. Alcoholism is a family disease and effects everyone in the family. Today Melanie tells her story of why she does what she does. We had a great talk about equity and meeting others where they are at.  This is also an introduction to the new podcast coming out with The Pueblo Rescue Mission. It will be hosted by myself and Melanie and will contain success stories and education for others. Beyond that we bring what is going on in the community and the changes that we can make.

Amy Moore is a well respected Interventionist and I am proud to have her as a friend. She has been given the name A Drunk Whisperer for very good reasons. Today we talk about the difference between a 12th step call and an Intervention. Sometimes we can make the unwilling, willing.

Today on our show we have Rob T who started his recovery path at a young age. In my eyes there is only "your" bottom, there is no rock bottom as that makes a requirement that may kill us. The time went by very fast which tells me this is a great podcast.    Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah C Sound and Audio: Dion Miller Host: Dion Miller trudgingtogether@gmail.com www.trudgecast.com  All rights reserved.

This podcast is doing so well on Understanding Fentanyl that I thought I should share with our recovery community also.

Recovery can be a small world indeed. Nate and I had a blast talking about Recovery and to find out we were in the same placements made me feel a little less lonely. I love the humility of this podcast.

A lot of us grow up in very loving homes and have fantastic parents, yet the first drink can still set off a chain of events that lead us to AA.

So we are a day late for Friday Night, things tend to happen in Gods time. Being a grateful alcoholic can change  your entire view of life. But first we must admit and make changes. When we do this we become examples to our children and our community and Gordon is a great example of this.  Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah Cubbison Produced by: Dion Miller Host: Dion Miller Director: Dion Miller dion@trudgingtogether.com www.trudgingtogether.com All rights reserved

Fear, Shame and the guilt that comes with addiction can lead to a loneliness that only we know. Wishing for the jumping of place, the end. We think we are terminally unique and rightly fully so! When we enter the rooms we find other just like ourselves and loneliness can turn into hope. Our speaker Amber talks about just this. Taking a past that was ugly and making it gold to help others.  #recovery #mentalhealth #fitness #health #addiction #mentalhealthawareness #healing #selfcare #anxiety #wellness #depression #love #selflove #sober #sobriety #recoveryispossible #therapy #motivation #mentalhealthmatters #soberlife #mentalillness #rehab #ptsd #addictionrecovery #edrecovery #trauma #healthylifestyle #workout #training #hope #AA   Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah Cubbison Produced by: Dion Miller Host: Dion Miller Director: Dion Miller dion@trudgingtogether.com www.trudgingtogether.com All rights reserved

Life can be tough as it is and when the holidays come it is easy to get caught in the hustle and bustle of the season. Today Dr. Jenkins and I talk about the stress of the holidays and some helpful hints to keep you centered.    Doctor Jenkins is a Licensed Psychologist who obtained her Doctorate of Philosophy in Clinical Psychology from Wichita State University in 2011. She has experience with a broad range of intervention  and assessment in the field and  experience working  with  religiously and ethnically diverse populations with a full spectrum of diagnostic concerns and degrees of severity across life phases. In her  practice her intervention may  include  CBT, DBT and ACT modalities. In her coaching practice she works to help women eliminate  emotional eating by teaching a  series of educational lessons in a 10 week workshop.  These  lessons have been collected from years of experience observing women's relationship with food combined with evidence based knowledge in what  works to help a person with disorderly eating patterns.   Theme Song Written and Performed by Nyah Cubbison Produced by: Dion Miller Host: Dion Miller Director: Dion Miller dion@trudgingtogether.com www.trudgingtogether.com All rights reserved

The world of addiction is never a straight line. It has twist and turns that we need to learn how to navigate. Cilla M. is our guest on this episode of RAW Recovery. I had the chance to listen to her speak at a Mobilize Recovery event and new she would be a great fit. It had been a few weeks when she reached out about shadowing me at Detox. This was God's way of saying. Hey Dion you were supposed to ask so he put her back in my life. Last but not least just look at that happy family in the picture.    Trudging Together is non for profit so donations are always welcome. No amount is too little.
