The Winding Road to Recovery | S2E4

Recovery from addiction isn’t a linear path. People with a substance use disorder can face setbacks, relapses, and stigma — but the strength to move forward comes from finding the right support and treatment. Brendan Little is the Founding Policy Director of Boston's Office of Recovery Services, and he has also been sober for the past 18 years. Host Frantzces Lys talks to Brandon about how he found stability after years of instability. We’ll also hear from Taheera Ma'at, an expert on addiction treatment and recovery, and strategies/treatment people can seek out if they need help in their own recovery.
