What happens when a heartfelt friendship of 18 years becomes the catalyst for incredible change in the lives of many? Join us as we take you on a journey with Steve Keene, from his roots in Lincoln, Nebraska, to his remarkable work in the healthcare industry and, more importantly, his transformative efforts in addiction recovery. Hear about our memorable taxi ride in London and how these shared experiences led to the founding of the Pelican Intervention Fund. Since 2013, this charity has raised over $800,000 and helped 160 clients struggling with opiate and alcohol addiction through 12-step, faith-based, long-term residential sober living programs.
We'll break down the 12-step recovery process, its origins, and its profound principles. Discover the individualized nature of "rock bottom," and listen to personal stories that illustrate the varied paths people take towards realizing they need help. We'll explore what makes a great candidate for treatment and the unique challenges faced by different age groups, including those on medically assisted treatment. Through our discussion, you'll gain a deeper understanding of the complexities of addiction and recovery.
In the concluding segments, we shine a light on the Pelican Intervention Fund’s deep impact and the power of community support. Learn about the fund's symbolic name and hear inspiring stories of recovery and growth. This episode is not just a testament to the power of service but a call to action for all of us. Let’s reflect on the significance of giving back, spreading hope, and making a positive impact in our own communities. Join us, and together, let’s continue the journey of mutual improvement.
