Quotes

"It was like a shining moment for recovery because all three members of that family that are in recovery were like, they just wanted to learn, listen, and are very open-minded."

"If your loved one is in a fire or if you come home from a party and it's one o'clock in the morning and you see that your loved one's house is on fire, you are going to call 911 for help.You're going to call for help. You're gonna do it immediately. You're not gonna wait for it to get worse. You're not going to wait under the assumption that he knows his house is on fire. As soon as you recognize that this is an addiction, you don't have to wait for it to be a five alarm blaze."

"We’re responsible for the effort, not the outcome. And that effort, those efforts made, if you can do this, now you have a skillset that we have."
