Episode 10: Andy Henderson
04/16/23 • 94 min
On today’s episode I’m joined by Andy Henderson, who has the most infectious enthusiasm for recovery I’ve ever encountered in time working a program. Join us as Andy walks us through how God rescued him for a cycle of perpetual self-destructive behavior exacerbated by the guilt and trauma of watching his best friend get shot right in front of him, and how accepting help from his higher power allowed him to finally find a way out of his hopelessness.

Episode 9: Austen Funke
On today's episode I'll be joined by Austen Funke as he takes us through his incredible story of how drugs and alcohol drove him to do everything he could to throw his life away before God salvaged it. From full-blown alcoholism in High school to a high-speed chase through Iowa to narrowly missing death from an overdose multiple times, join us as Austen recalls how God walked with him through it all and eventually pulled him out with a simple question: "are you done yet?". Be warned, this is a long one but I hope you stick it out because it is well worth it.

TRP Topics: Fear and Expectation w/ Kyle Sears
Today's episode will be dual-purposed. First we'll get to meet Kyle Sears, my life-long best friend and someone I work recovery with side by side. He'll give us a brief look into his recovery journey and we'll share how our friendship began and has evolved as we both engaged with recovery.
The second purpose is as the second installment of our TRP Topics series, where Kyle and I discuss the negative effects of an unhealthy engagement with other people's expectations of us- both perceived and real. We'll talk about how he's been able to find a way to balance his empathy and service with other people with a grounded sense of what he can and cannot do as a person.
