Resources for someone starting their recovery journey and those who are family members of someone starting on the path to recovery.Three years ago, I co-wrote a book meant for exactly this reason. It is a raw, honest, and true account that serves both sides of the coin.Drowning in Addiction: Sink or SwimBy: Scott Leeper, Michael Arnold (Maassel), Andrea CarrPURCHASE HERE ON AMAZONDo you have questions for me?

Michael Arnold is an alcoholic and drug addict in recovery, and she is loud and proud about it. Her rock bottom was when her heart stopped in an ambulance after suffering a seizure when she detoxed too fast. She almost died. That explains why she is so enthusiastic about her life in recovery. I am excited to have her on the podcast to talk about all of this, and her new book, Drowning in Addiction: Sink or Swim.

Scott co-wrote Drowning in Addiction: Sink or Swim. He talks with Corey & Rob about the book and shares a personal story about his life.

A few years ago, Scott Leeper had to make the tough decision of taking his father off of life support and watched him die. From that moment, his life started to spiral out of control. From an affair to being kicked out of the Marines to going into financial ruin, his life had taken a turn down a dark and lonely path. But from those circumstances, Scott has learned the power of vulnerability and embracing that element of masculinity. He realized vulnerability was necessary to move forward and discover what was really going on inside of him. As a masculine, that can be tough. But Scott realized that being vulnerable allowed him to become the best version of himself, not only for him personally, but for those he loves as well.Today, Scott is a certified mindset and health coach, public speaker and the author of the new book"Drowning in Addiction: Sink or Swim," available on March 27th. He's taken his story and used it as a way to help teach men that it's okay to be vulnerable and that in vulnerability, you'll find the strength you’ve been searching for.Find Scott on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/pg/mindmusclestrengthFollow Craig on Instagram and Facebook @CraigPerryCoaching
