Addict II Athlete removes the negative stigma of addiction and mental health and creates a foundation of potential and support. Addict to Athlete is a nonprofit team of peers, friends, and family who have a desire to create a new way of life. By knowing an addict, having been affected by addiction, or being in recovery yourselves, Team Addict II Athlete is here to help. 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. Our goal is to spread the message of recovery to the addict and family of the addict who still struggles with addiction and to show that we have discovered a more excellent way to live. Moving from Addict to Athlete, dismisses the old way of thinking that recovery must remain anonymous as you become an Agent of Sobriety and a Champion of recovery.

The Major League with Savannah Robinson- Opinions Jan 22, 2024

Show notes

This week on the new Major League Podcast with 18 yo Savannah Robinson she and Coach Blu, therapist discuss opinions. Opinions should be fluid because the world is constantly evolving, and new information is continuously emerging. Adhering rigidly to a single opinion can hinder personal growth and understanding. Being open to adjusting our opinions based on new insights fosters critical thinking, empathy, and adaptability. It enables us to engage in informed discussions, consider alternative perspectives, and ultimately make more well-rounded decisions. Embracing fluidity in opinions allows for intellectual growth and a better understanding of the complex and dynamic world we live in.

One on One with Coach Blu: Spirituality and Recovery May 05, 2023

Show notes

Living a life of spirituality can be a powerful way to find purpose and meaning in life, especially for those who are recovering from addiction. Spirituality can be defined as a connection to something greater than oneself, whether that be a higher power, nature, or a sense of purpose and community.

For those in recovery, spirituality can provide a sense of hope, healing, and connection to a supportive community. It can also provide a framework for making meaningful changes in one's life and finding purpose beyond just staying sober.

One way to cultivate spirituality in addiction recovery is through practices such as meditation, prayer, or mindfulness. These practices can help individuals develop a deeper sense of self-awareness and connect with their inner selves, leading to greater clarity and insight.

Ultimately, a life of spirituality and purpose in addiction recovery is about finding meaning and fulfillment beyond just overcoming addiction. It's about cultivating a sense of connection, purpose, and hope that can sustain individuals through the challenges of life and bring greater joy and fulfillment to their lives.

Jarom has a belief and attitude that nothing is impossible. Still, even at some of the most disappointing and darkest moments in the races he's participated in, he's always found a way to come back, return and get his heart back into the game. Jarom has been an inspiration, mentor, and even coach to the Addict II Athlete team since the beginning of our journey. It's easy to recognize the passion and the love he has for the sport of ultramarathon, running, and helping others achieve goals they never thought possible.

The Minor League: It's About Respect Mar 24, 2021

Show notes

It's time to level up the respect for one another. On today's podcast, 15 yo Savannah and Therapist Coach Blu discuss respect. As a father and daughter team listen as they talk about what they see in today's social and emotional climate and what needs to change. Together they process respect as a concept that refers to the ability to value and honor another person, both his or her words and actions, even if we do not approve or share everything he or she does. They touch on accepting the other person and not trying to change them and not judging them by their attitudes, behaviors, or thoughts. It is not expecting someone to be otherwise.
