  Ep. 138 - A Prescription for Peace? Medications, Integrity & Accountability in Recovery.

  Oct 1, 20261h 1m

  Welcome back for another episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for listening and supporting our show. Around the horn sees some football talk, MLB playoffs beginning, questionable Go Fund Me accounts, a brief synopsis breakdown of the ‘To Catch a Predator Movie,’ and the usual collection of tangents somehow all make their way into the conversation. Then we get into a complicated topic in recovery: medications in sobriety. Where do necessary medications fit into an abstinence-based recovery program? We share our own experiences with detox, Subutex and Suboxone, prescription medications, anxiety, dental procedures, pain management, and the fears that can come with taking certain medications after years of sobriety. We're clear we aren’t doctors and aren’t telling people to stop taking prescribed medication, but we do question when medication is medically necessary and when it may become something else and how slippery of a slope that can be. Should a mentor know what medications someone is taking? What happens when a person’s approach to medication doesn’t align with the recovery experience their mentor can actually share? And when medication truly is necessary, what role can honesty, planning, doctors, trusted friends, family, and accountability play in protecting sobriety? The question will always be; are we being honest with ourselves? Trouble accepted, trouble squarely faced with calm courage, trouble lessened and often transcended. -Bill Wilson- Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

  Ep. 137 - The Geographic Cure vs. The Healthy Move: Navigating Relocation in Sobriety.

  Sep 24, 20261h 2m

  Welcome back to this week's episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for supporting the show. We kick things off going around the horn. We discuss the art of grocery shopping, expensive dental work, fixing cars, and family dinners. In the back half of the show we have some football and baseball talk. In the recovery segment, we talk about what happens when sobriety takes you somewhere new. Dan and Greg share their experiences relocating after building strong recovery foundations in Florida, including the fear of leaving familiar people and meetings behind, walking into completely new recovery communities, and resisting the urge to compare everything to what they had before. We also discuss why establishing a solid foundation before making a major move matters, how helping others can create connections in a new place, and why a few bad meetings shouldn't convince us that recovery isn't available wherever we land. Sometimes staying connected means changing things up. Recovery continues to ask us to grow. The goal isn't to rebuild exactly what we had. It's to stay open enough to create something new.

  Ep. 136 - When the Fire Goes Out: Overcoming Apathy on the Sober Journey & Remembering 9/11.

  Sep 17, 202659 min

  Welcome back to this week's episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for supporting the show. After we go around the horn we honor and remember September 11th, 2001. Each of us recap where we were on that fateful day and how it impacted each of us back then and now. What we teach our kids about it and how different it is now that we are the parents trying to explain the world to the next generation. We will never forget the lives lost but we will always remember those who sacrificed and the unity it brought to our country. On the back half of the show we have more NFL discussion about week one. In the recovery segment, we tackle complacency and what can happen when a good life slowly becomes an excuse to stop doing the things that helped us build it. We talk about the stream of life; busy schedules, work, family, and travel. How easy it is to rest on years of sobriety and convince ourselves we're doing just fine. We also discuss recognizing the warning signs in how we treat other people, the importance of staying connected, working with others as our primary purpose, and why returning to the basics can matter even more as the years in recovery add up. Dan and Greg share a unique perspective on having to move to different states after multiple years of sobriety and how challenging but also exciting it can be to make a new foundation and build a new support network. “Can we get to the place where there is no place to get to." -Michel Stone Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

  Ep. 135 - Waking Up To The Real World: Memorable Moments In Early Sobriety & NFL Season Preview.

  Sep 10, 20261h 11m

  Welcome back to Trudge Report Podcast. Thank you for your support of the show. This week we go around the horn. Dan is in Connecticut where some somber family news gives way to some cherished moments and teaching opportunities. Greg gets VIP treatment at the Cleveland Guardians (don't call them Indians) game. Corey gets down and dirty in the yard and discovers a Florida cheese steak that rivals Philly. The recovery segment surrounds memorable experiences and events that each of us encountered in our early sobriety or first few years. We look back and recap those time situations and remember how vital to our early sobriety and long-term recovery they were. We go down memory lane. Not all of these occurrences were good or positive at first sight but we learned and conquered fears going through them. Looking back we realize they were just what we needed. On the back half of the show we have NFL season preview. We are all passionate about the sport and our teams. We go around and each of us give our take on a big storyline for the upcoming season and then we each have a turn talking about why our respective favorite teams are going to be awesome or are going to stink. “Letting go isn't about having the courage to release the past, it's about having the wisdom to embrace the present.” -Steve Maraboli Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

  Sep 3, 202652 min

  Hello sports fans and welcome back to another week and episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for being with us and thank you for your support. This week the dynamic duo of Greg and Shawn have the run of the place. Corey is cow tipping somewhere and Dan is dealing with some family stuff so special shout out and prayers to him and his family. The two of us go around the horn, giving some quick life updates, and Labor Day plans. Greg keeps us apprised of his still far away but coming up fast wedding next summer. We have a little MLB discussion as we approach the last month of the regular season before the playoffs. In the recovery segment we bring back the mini deep dive into different recovery programs. This week we delve into Refuge Recovery. This was the first and main offshoot of the Buddhist style recovery that we covered a few weeks ago. Refuge Recovery is a mindfulness-based addiction recovery program founded by Buddhist teacher and author Noah Levine. It serves as a non-theistic alternative to traditional 12-step programs. The history of it is packed with success, controversy, legal implications, and more. Enjoy.
