The Heart of Recovery: Real People. Real Lives. Real Success Stories.

"The Heart of Recovery," shares heartfelt interviews of people who entered recovery to start living well again. The people interviewed for this book are experiencing life with a full heart to the best of their ability. Ultimately, “The Heart of Recovery” is about people committing to live and not to die; to love and not to hate; to shine light and not live in darkness. The world is a better place with these beautiful hearts, whose stories you will read and hopefully be inspired by. They have all come forward courageously for a greater purpose. I am a blessed and better man for connecting with them. The interviewees range from celebrities to fitness experts to recovery experts and advocates as well as all other walks of life. Their answers offer tips and tricks that have helped them stay in long term recovery. Interspersed are my “two cents” about fitness, relationships, spirituality, etc. that have helped me stay on track. Let’s face it: a person can rarely go anywhere without running into somebody who has not been affected by our country’s current drug epidemic. We are unsure of where it will go, what will happen, and what can be done to solve it or even improve it. I am confident that this book will be an important tool in aiding to solve this crisis, and to offer immediate support to those seeking to overcome drug and/or alcohol addiction.
