The Recovery Guy Podcast Robert Pardon - The Recovery Guy

Sharing our experience, strength and hope is how we all learn to live the sober way of life. Robert shares his story from a hopeless alcoholic to a recovered person.







Sharing our experience, strength, and hope is the path to recovery

Al-Anon and AA join together to create a complete story of wellness







Alcoholism is a family disease. More often than not, It is necessary for both the co-dependent and the addict to seek a path to wellness. Using the tools from two different, yet similar, plans of recovery both parties begin a recovery journey. Couples or families that don’t choose this path will not survive or be happy.

Throughout my life, I heard many things regarding my potential. The word BUT was used as part of my description when I was mentioned. People would often say how wonderful they thought I could be, BUT….. There was always an exclusion of my potential. There was always a conjunction between how I wanted to be seen and how I was seen. This lasted until I first came into recovery when I was 32. It was then that I learned to Drop the But. My journey has been to be as I hoped to be seen, without the word BUT playing a role in that description. I hope you enjoy today’s podcast. Be blessed

I must TRANSFORM for a permanent change to take place







The difference between those who get sober and those who live a life of sobriety is Transformation. When we look at the emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical one is no more important than the other. Having said a well-rounded Transformation is REQUIRED for lifelong recovery. Today’s conversation with Alex covers exactly that.

Fitness is required for lifelong recovery







In the beginning, all most of us can do is hang onto our recovery chair. After we are sober for a while, we begin to see the neglected areas of our life. For most of us, the physical side of our health went ignored. A well-rounded sober journey requires me to become fit in all aspects of my life. This conversation with Leandro is what this podcast is about.

Finding our power is essential to fitness







As you have heard me say, there are four elements or dimensions to our personal recovery. Those four dimensions are, emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical. Today we are so fortunate to have my dear friend and fitness instructor in the studio, Vera. We will discuss the facets of fitness, what it is like for a person entering a fitness journey and why it is something to continue moving forward. We will also discuss the empowerment it brings on an emotional, spiritual, and mental level while satisfying physical fitness needs. I hope you enjoy this podcast.
