Finding the positive
The Voices of Recovery
Sometimes, the hardest thing isn’t finding the right words — it’s finding the courage to sit down alone and say them. This episode is about that courage, about carving out a life of distinction over distraction, and about the daily practice of focusing on the good. It’s about choosing to notice the small victories, to journal the gratitude, and to train your mind to see what’s right — even when it feels like everything around you is screaming what’s wrong.

Forgiving Yourself, this is a tough one.
The Voices of Recovery
Episode 1 – Forgiving Yourself, Letting Go of the Past In this opening episode, Chris and Shane explore one of the hardest parts of recovery: forgiving yourself. Through real-life stories and a powerful Lexus engine metaphor, they examine how shame, guilt, and incomplete healing keep us stuck—and how taking full inventory and making peace with the past opens the door to lasting change. If you've ever struggled to forgive the person in the mirror, this conversation will feel like a lifeline.
