We have come together to help one another with the outcome from all angles of addiction using our Erase and Replace Philosophy. Erase negative behaviors by replacing the void left behind with health, service, support system, and recreation. We are here to carry the message of recovery and change the outlook of addiction.

Overtime: Foundation of Recovery Oct 27, 2023

Show notes

Addiction is a complex disease that affects all areas of your life. It can happen to anyone at any age, but it's often easier to ignore the problem than face it head-on.

There are many ways to get help for addiction, including seeking treatment through an outpatient facility or intensive outpatient program, or attending support groups or counseling.

Live a happy, normal life: After treatment for drug abuse and alcoholism, many people worry about their future because they aren't sure how their lives will look now that drugs or alcohol aren't part of it anymore. It's important to remember that there's no one way to live a happy life — what matters most is that you find what works for you.

Overtime: Identifying Relationships Oct 09, 2023

Everybody needs support in their lives. How do I know if I am emotionally crossing lines with a co-worker? Is there an emotional affair happening? They can be different with everyone.

Mindset Is Everything: Shadrach Feild Sep 19, 2023

Show notes

This episode is a restream from May 30, 2021 Coach Blu interviews Shad Feild, cowboy, pilot, and son of Lewis Feild. After a traumatic plane crash in August 2020, Shad didn't know if he would ever walk again. He met team Addict II Athlete when he started a HIIT class with Coach James Johnson to help him build his strength back. Coach Johnson immediately invited him skydiving with the team to help him erase and replace that experience.
Shad shares how his mindset was the pinnacle to being able to handle this trial. Shad said, "I was taught from a very young age to get back on that horse when you get bucked off! It's not always easy to conquer our fears but it's so freeing. I felt like it would be a good way to erase some of the negative brought on by the accident and replace it with something BIG, something I'd remember and have somewhat of a fresh start with my love for aviation."

You can watch the last few minutes of the plane crash here, subscribe to Shad's YouTube channel, and follow him on Instagram.
