    Jaron Stanton: Recovery, Faith & Finding Yourself (Audio)

    Host Christin Day sits down with Jaron Stanton for a real conversation about recovery, relapse, treatment, faith, therapy, and finding purpose beyond addiction. Jaron shares openly about his experience with alcohol, early sobriety, relapse, and finally entering treatment. He also discusses the risks of “gray-area” substances such as kratom and kava, and how something that seems harmless can become part of an addictive cycle when the goal is to numb anxiety, escape emotions, or feel different. This episode is honest, vulnerable, and hopeful. Jaron’s story is a reminder that recovery is not about being perfect. It is about being willing to ask for help, take the next right step, and build a life you do not want to escape from.

    A father should never have to bury his child (Audio)

    In Episode 164 of Recovery On-Air, host Christin Day sits down with Juan Avalos, founder of Dads Against Bluez, for an honest conversation about addiction, incarceration, fatherhood, faith, grief, and recovery. Juan shares the heartbreaking story behind Dads Against Bluez. He talks about growing up surrounded by addiction and instability, becoming addicted at a young age, spending years in and out of prison, and missing important years of his daughter Angelica’s life. He also talks about the moment he had to face a reality no parent should have to face: watching his own daughter struggle with addiction, mental-health challenges, homelessness, incarceration, and the streets. Juan shares the last time he saw Angelica alive. After her death, Juan had a choice. He could allow grief to destroy him, or he could allow God to use his pain for something greater. Alongside his family, he chose to honor Angelica by turning his loss into purpose. Today, Dads Against Bluez is working in Phoenix to raise awareness about fentanyl, support fathers, educate youth, mentor families, and help break generational cycles of addiction and incarceration. At Crossroads, we know addiction and overdose are not statistics. They are someone’s child. Someone’s parent. Someone’s partner. Someone’s friend. We see this pain every day, but we also see recovery happen every day. We have deep respect for Juan Avalos, his family, and Dads Against Bluez for choosing to serve in the trenches and on the front lines of our Phoenix community.

He meets people where they are, helps connect them to showers, meals, laundry, treatment, sober living, and other resources—and reminds them that recovery is possible. In this episode, Eric and Christin discuss forgiveness, faith, the realities of addiction, and why continued outreach matters—even when it takes years for someone to be ready.
