    Episode Eight - Embrace the Chaos

    Between guests, Honour Script takes a break from the interviewer role to reflect and dig deeper on recent topics. A mix of education, insight, and unfiltered opinion. On this episode, I pick up on the themes of queer identity in addiction and recovery from episodes 5-7, and share my journey of coming to understand and embrace my trans identity - a journey that ran parallel to my addiction, recovery, and exit from the twelve step community.

    Episode Six - We Become the Healers - with Katie Marshall

    On this episode, I sit down with Katie Marshall, the chair of Be: Trans Support and Community. We chat about her life experience as a transgender woman, overcoming addiction and a suicide attempt to become a visible and inspiring figure in her community, and the importance of the work of the healers in our community - the people who listen, who understand, and who raise the voices of those who most need to be heard. The journey of accepting our own gender identity can be a powerful transition - not just from assigned gender to our true selves, but from pain and isolation into the power of community and self acceptance.

    Episode Five - Chemical Connections - with Mikael Devereux

    Episode Four - Chosen Family, Choosing Family

    Between guests, Honour Script takes a break from the interviewer role to reflect and dig deeper on recent topics. A mix of education, insight, and unfiltered opinion. On this episode, I look closer at queer community and chosen family, and the role of recovery capital in the journey from addiction to a full and joyful life. I discuss what sponsorship really means in 12 step recovery - the good, the bad, and the codependent. And finally, I share my personal faith journey, from my Christian upbringing, through atheism, to developing a personal relationship with a new - or, very old - god that I never expected to meet, and discuss forgiveness and healing from trauma.

    Episode Three - In the Madness, in the World - with Susan Thorne

    Susan Thorne is a Christian, an ex-Jehovah's Witness, and published author. In her book, 'Held by the Watchtower - Set Free by Christ,' she shared her story with the world more than two decades ago, and now she's here to share it with me - her youngest child, and not quite the baby from the story anymore! On this episode we chat about her experience of indoctrination, doubt, and the freedom she found by developing a personal relationship with God - unchained from dogma and control. I reflect on the parallels in my own life, and the ways that our sometimes conflicting faiths have helped us understand each other better.

    AKA Mandilee is a musician and recovery advocate, and a former sponsee of mine from our twelve step days. She joins me for a conversation about her music, our creative projects, and changing experiences of recovery and personal growth.
