In this episode, Ryan Hedrick opens up about what it really means to trade one addiction for another. From drugs to social media, he explores how addiction is still addiction, even when it shows up in different forms and at different levels.

Ryan shares honest examples from his own recovery journey and sits down with a friend who has been clean for more than six years to talk about how social media has impacted his sobriety. You will also hear from a young woman in Florida and an author who specializes in helping caregivers navigate a loved one’s addiction and recovery.

If someone you love is in recovery, this is an episode you will not want to miss. It is a real conversation about how addiction can continue to evolve, even while recovery is in progress.
