How Ya Doin?

I am writing this as a way to keep future visitors of this site up to date.  I am currently traveling around the world because of the blessings I have found in recovery.  While I haven’t had the time in a while to record a podcast, the 18 episodes contained on this site are very relevant to my life and to recovery in general.

The site may look a little different if you have visited here before.  I decided to move it off of the domain from my personal web site as to help keep my anonymity.  All of the content is here just as before and hopefully someday I will be able to record more content.

In doing the podcast I discovered so much about myself that I really didn’t know about.  Little pearls of wisdom seemed to come from my mouth just at the time I needed to apply them in my life.  Starting this podcast in 2005 and recording the episodes was a magical experience.

I also love to hear from people who come across the podcast and download it.  Even though the episodes are a couple of years old, I think they are worth a listen.  If you have any questions or comments please feel free to email me at recoverypodcast at gmail dot com

My life is truly full of blessings today.  It has been almost five years since I placed my last bet and I can’t even imagine what life would be today if I was still in my disease.  In fact, who knows if I would be here.  I know that I definetely wouldn’t be living my dreams and traveling the world with my wife and son.  Please take care and thanks for being there!

Episode 18 - Lets Catch Up!

Please disregard references to this as episode 19. I also mention the next podcast will be episode 20 which is obviously incorrect. In this podcast we do the “Love Meditation” and I speak about the significant changes in my life and the direction it is heading. I also talk about how recovery changes the complete way we think. Finally I speak about getting back in the habit of being more spiritual. I hope you enjoy. Please email any questions or comments. Thank you David again for letting me use the song “Let It Go”. It is truly inspirational. Thanks for being there. Talk to you soon!

I Am Alive!

I have received quite a few emails inquiring about whether I am ok or not. I just want to let everyone know that everything is going great but my life seems to get busier and busier. I was on vacation from the 17th to the 26th of March and since I have been back I have been trying to catch up. My schedule is looking a little lighter starting in a couple of weeks but then my son’s tball is starting twice a week so I don’t know. Life is good but busy and I am really trying to find time for the podcast. I just want to thank everyone for the support and I love hearing from everyone. I will email everyone as soon as I release another podcast and if someone wants to record their story like Tim did I would be more than happy to post it as a podcast. Talk to you soon and thanks for being there!

The State Of My Recovery

I really feel like I should post more personal stuff on this site. I am just another recovering person but my life is so full of blessings. I know that when I am down it sometimes help me to look at the blessings in someone else’s life in order to see the blessings in mine.

Since I started this podcast life has changed so much, which in reality is basically what has happened since I entered a recovery program. I have been really willing to change the way I think and live and have found things in life that really are beyond anything I could’ve imagined.
