My Why
Hey there! And welcome! I am Chase, and I am so grateful you are here.
Asking for and accepting help is so hard, but it doesn't have to be. We were never meant to do anything alone, and trying to go on a sobriety journey without support is so much harder than it has to be. This is my why.
As a Certified Addiction Recovery Coach, it is my dream to guide you on your journey, and put an end to a stigma - a very negative one.
There is so much stigma around addiction, unfortunately. What if we could start to change some of this stigma by simply having a conversation?
Recovery is possible and I am living proof.
About Me
I am a husband, father, son, and brother. Having Christ as my spiritual anchor has been extremely instrumental in all parts of my recovery. I am also a Certified Addiction Recovery Coach.
I have been in recovery for over 5 years, and previous to starting my recovery journey, I misused substances for nearly 12 years of my life. I was a functioning addict, until I wasn't.
I was first introduced to illegal substances by my older brother when I was only 14. The first time I became intoxicated was with my older sister when I was only 15. I then drank and used illegal drugs recreationally for the next 12 years, off and on, then drugs took over my life completely at the very young age of 26.
This is my story, but thankfully it did not end there.
Thanks to my wife, Erin, I was able to get healthy and sober at 37. I am now 43.
I also became a Certified Peer Support Specialist in June 2023 through SC SHARE.
I've learned some really healthy coping skills along the way and I'm here, now, to hopefully share them all with you.
I am so glad you are here. If you are getting curious on how you, too, can start living your best life, you're in the right place.
Let's have some conversations, and hopefully, with some mindfulness and patience, we can start some amazing transformations together.
