William Cope Moyers was a crack addict and an alcoholic who turned his world around, wrote a memoir and became a public face of Hazelden Betty Ford rehab center, until he made a trip to the dentist and was prescribed pain killers. His new book, Broken Open: What Painkillers Taught Me About Life and Recovery, details his fight back to sobriety.

Deaths, hospitalizations, and emergency room visits due to medication or drug overdose, have become a growing public health concern. Getting sober and staying in recovery is a challenge for many. William Cope Moyers understands both sides of the problem. William was an addict and alcoholic who turned his life around and has now worked for over 28 years at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation. He discusses his addiction journey and why there is more to recovery than simply staying sober. William is the vice president of public affairs and community relations at the Hazelden Betty Ford. He was a journalist for CNN, and is the son of journalist and former White House Press Secretary, Bill Moyers, and journalist, Judith Moyers. William has appeared on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Good Morning America, and National Public Radio. His work has been featured in the New York Times, the Washington Post, and Newsweek. He has written four books, including Broken: My Story of Addiction and Redemption. His new book is, Broken Open: What Painkillers taught Me About Life and Recovery.   Follow CYACYL: Website: www.cyacyl.com Digital: www.cyacyl.com/digital Upcoming shows: www.cyacyl.com/shows Facebook: www.facebook.com/changeyourattitudechangeyourlife Music: www.purple-planet.com

William Moyers was one of the lucky ones. Sober for decades after years of addiction to alcohol and crack cocaine, he became a model of success and redemption. He started working at the Hazelden Betty Ford, and in 2006, he published a vulnerable memoir, “Broken,” about his journey out of addiction. But then he was prescribed pain killers after some dental work. And he found himself addicted again. Only this time, he had a public persona. People looked to him for hope. And he found opioids a much harder substance to break free from. What happened next is captured in his new memoir, “Broken Open: What Painkillers Taught Me about Life and Recovery.” Moyers said it changed his focus from sobriety to recovery, and it caused him to rethink how addicts can get there. This week, he joins host Kerri Miller in the studio for an conversation about what true recovery looks like. “It's really messy,” he says. “It's particularly messy for those of us who are public advocates for organizations like Hazelden Betty Ford who are putting their stories out there to inspire others to get well. My story has helped thousands and thousands of people, and I'm glad for it. But there's more to it, which is why I have to tell this story.” Guest: William C. Moyers is the vice president of public affairs and community relations at the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. In today's episode, we're delighted to have Melissa Fors Shackelford with us to explore inclusive marketing, its profound impact on healthcare outcomes, and the ways in which media and marketing strategies can reduce stigma and promote inclusivity. Melissa Fors Shackelford, the Senior Vice President of Marketing at Let's Get Checked, brings her wealth of experience to this conversation, shedding light on how inclusive marketing strategies can drive significant positive changes within the healthcare sector. Her insights are backed by numerous examples, from tackling the stigma around obesity through prime-time specials to promoting respectful representation in healthcare campaigns. We discuss the critical role of inclusive language and imagery in shaping public perceptions and enhancing healthcare access, discuss the importance of asking for help and balancing short-term and long-term brand investments, and celebrate women leaders in healthcare who are paving the way for a more inclusive and supportive industry. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it. Key Takeaways: Impact of Media on Health Perception: Melissa Fors Shackelford illustrates how media can alter public discourse around health issues, referencing Oprah's prime-time special on obesity. Such initiatives, she argues, significantly impact viewership and can help in normalizing discussions around stigmatized health conditions. Revenue Implications of Inclusive Marketing: Inclusive marketing isn't just ethically right; it also makes sound business sense. Melissa emphasizes that campaigns targeting diverse audiences often see substantial commercial benefits. In healthcare, reaching diverse populations and using inclusive messaging can result in better health outcomes and increased trust in healthcare providers. Value of Networking and Leadership: Drawing from her experiences, Melissa highlights the importance of supporting women in healthcare through communities like the Women's Health Leadership Trust. She underscores how networking and mentorship can elevate female leaders and promote a more inclusive and collaborative industry environment. Addressing Stigma through Language and Imagery: The language and imagery used in healthcare marketing campaigns can either perpetuate or diminish stigma. Melissa shares how an inclusive marketing audit at Hazelden Betty Ford uncovered a need for more diverse representation, and how addressing this gap can reshape public perceptions and foster a more supportive environment for individuals seeking care. Innovative Campaigns for Challenging Stereotypes: We learn about campaigns that successfully challenge stereotypes, such as the "That's my senior moment" campaign showcasing active seniors and the American Lung Association's effort to reduce smoking stigma. These campaigns show that innovative and respectful marketing can lead to better health outcomes and greater acceptance of diverse health conditions. Join us in this enlightening episode as we explore how inclusive marketing can break barriers, reduce stigma, and ultimately lead to more equitable healthcare for all. Be sure to subscribe to the Health Marketing Collective for more insights on leadership and excellence in healthcare.

Join us this week for an episode packed with professional insights, personal experiences, and inspiring leadership lessons. As the Hazelden Betty Ford Foundation's chief business growth officer, Bob Poznanovich is responsible for bridging the gap between product development, marketing and sales to help the nonprofit reach more people with its lifesaving substance use and mental health care and resources. Prior to joining Hazelden Betty Ford, Poznanovich co-founded and served as the CEO of AiR Healthcare—a behavioral health organization that provides solutions to individuals, families and employers dealing with behavioral health issues. Before that, he spent over 20 years as a senior business development executive in the technology industry. He is co-author of the Hazelden Publishing title, It Is Not Okay to be a Cannibal: How to Stop Addiction from Eating Your Family Alive.  Quotes: "I've done a lot of work not only perfecting the sales perspective, but also the buying perspective"  "Not many people talk about selling as a buyer, as opposed to selling as a salesman… there is there is a psychological buying process that people go through when they're making a decision."  "I think if you look at that way to being innovative in the area of growth, of selling to more, which is looking at products and services that we don't have. So part of this vision was that we've got to create x number of millions of dollars in growth over the next year for products and services that don't exist while we're also selling and maximizing the capacity of what we currently have and then looking for ways to get more value so we could sell for more." "And when you go to customer one, he goes, I got this problem. Go to customer two, I say, I got this problem. I could say to customer two, what about customer one's example, right? Do you have that problem, too, right? Now, when I go to see a third guy, I got three problems tee up, right, his plus the previous two. And I could start this dialogue where I get smarter in every sales call I get to see that the patterns and opportunities exist." "I think in any sales job, no matter what you're selling, your biggest competitor is always willingness to change." "We need to invest in more personalization of healthcare. So the tools that allow us to personalize care, to personalize the initiative, to deliver care personalized, to use real feedback from wearables, I think, is the next area, I think, to get past some of this denial."

Can mind-altering drugs make you feel better? Many people are wondering. The Minnesota Department of Health started the Psychedelic Medicine Task Force out of the most recent legislative session to look into how hallucinogenic drugs, commonly known as MDMA, magic mushrooms and LSD, are talked about in legislative legal, medical and policy decisions. Other states, including Texas, Massachusetts and New York have even created centers to look at how mind-altering drugs, under controlled settings, can affect mental health and substance use disorders. MPR News host Angela Davis talks with guests who have studied the use of psychedelics.Listeners also called to ask questions to the experts about psychedelics and they shared their own experiences using drugs like magic mushrooms, LSD or MDMA and their mental health.Guests Sandeep Nayak is an assistant professor and a medical doctor.

In this episode, Bob discussed how originally substance misuse was not an area that he worked with, but after it kept showing up with his clients he decided he needed and pursued more training. He discussed how he was part of the Family Recovery Project at the Mental Research Institute with Drs. Stephanie Brown and Virginia Lewis, a study aimed at what happens in couple and family systems after beginning recovery. Bob's research, a qualitative study on long-term couple recovery, led to him creating a model called the “Couple Recovery Development Approach (CRDA), a theory for explaining how couples can successfully navigate the challenges found in the transition from active addiction to active recovery. Bob talked about the impact of the trauma of addiction, and the trauma of recovery relating that the first year in recovery was challenging, and that relapse rates are high in that first year. He explained how with couples he externalizes addiction and explores how it has invaded their relationship, in a way so that they can both talk about the impact of this unwanted intruder. He discussed how clinicians often believe it's important not to work on the couple relationship in the beginning of recovery, because each partner is supposed to focus on their individual recovery, but he pointed out that couples impacted by addiction have the highest divorce rate of any other comorbidities, and there actually isn't any empirical studies to support that approach; in fact research does support the concept that healthy relationships are found to be the biggest predictor of long-term sobriety. It turns out that couples work is one of the most effective ways to identify addiction and move people into recovery. Rather than the common belief that addiction is contraindicated for couples therapy, We addressed the issues of codependency. While it can be helpful in defining issues for the non-using partner, it's limited. Bob said he feels it is important to add the concept of secondhand harm, and post-traumatic-stress-disorder to normalize partner's experiences and not pathologize them with the singular term “codependency”. He described his intervention called H.E.A.R.T. (Healing Emotions from Addiction Recovery and Trauma), which helps partners to process the trauma from addiction, without blame or defensiveness. Robert Navarra, Psy.D, LMFT, MAC is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, Certified Gottman Therapist and Master Trainer, and holds National Certification as a Master Addiction Counselor. He has trained counselors and therapists nationally and internationally. Dr. Navarra has co-authored several book chapters with Drs. John and Julie Gottman, and co-authored articles on Gottman Therapy for The Encyclopedia of Couple and Family Therapy with Dr. John Gottman. Based on his research at Mental Research Institute in Palo Alto California, Bob created “Roadmap for the Journey: A Path for Couple Recovery”, a two-day workshop for couples in recovery from an addictive disorder. “Roadmap for the Journey” has been a featured workshop at Hazelden Betty Ford and has been given at treatment programs as well as in small, semi-private workshop settings. Bob and John Gottman are currently researching the impact of Roadmap for the Journey in helping couples integrate recovery into their relationship, a missing element in most treatment programs. In collaboration with the Gottman Institute, Bob has also created a one-day training workshop for counselors and therapists, called “Couples and Addiction Recovery.” He also teaches graduate classes on addictive disorders at Santa Clara University.

I had the great pleasure of having Kevin Doyle on the show! In this episode, we got into many great conversations about how Kevin originally got into the field of mental health and addiction. We then talk about the process of entering graduate school programs and what students can expect from programs. We also got into discussions regarding certain classes that could be very beneficial for students that should be added to programs as well as possibly changing the prerequisites in getting into a masters level counseling program. Many questions came up regarding "whether is it necessary to have a bachelor's degree prior to entering a counseling graduate program. Would other work-related experience be sufficient to enter the masters level counseling program over having a bachelor's degree? The difficult topic of gatekeeping was discussed as to the process for the student as well as the graduate school professors. Then finally we get into discussions on the current behavioral health field workforce issues we are currently having. We talk about why there are workforce issues as well as how can we as a profession improve upon these issues so the future generation of mental health and addiction professionals.

Addiction, in general terms, is everywhere around us. Alcohol, drugs, social media....and most of us know someone who is struggling. Addiction in any form can destroy lives and that is why I am always fascinated by those who learned to overcome and create amazing things despite the hardship. Today I bring you a conversation with Guy Reeb, incredibly talented entrepreneur, who used his alcohol and drug addiction journey to help others. Guy came to Minnesota to attend treatment at Hazelden Betty Ford. After completing treatment, he moved into a sober living housing which was a game changer for him. He then decided to open Aspire Sober Living, his own sober housing facilities and it is now his mission to provide clean, safe, and welcoming sober living environments to help others maintain recovery from substance abuse. We talk about his own addiction, recovery, how we can help others, mental health and sobriety stigma, resilience and entrepreneurship. Incredible conversation!!!!!  Learn more about Guy and his work at www.aspiresoberliving.com ______________________________________________ My name is Jasna Burza & I am a Life and Business Strategist and Motivational Speaker based in Minneapolis Minnesota.

Thursday on Political Rewind: A story of addiction and recovery. William Cope Moyers is the son of journalist and presidential advisor Bill Moyers, and has memories from childhood of Air Force One and the White House. In the early '90s, Moyers followed his father's path into a promising career at CNN in Atlanta. However, his life began to spiral out of control thanks to a substance addiction to alcohol, crack cocaine and more. In recounting his struggles, Moyer says he hit rock bottom in downtown Atlanta 25 years ago. But Moyers has sought to help others struggling with addiction by telling the story of his road to recovery over the decades. His candid discussion of substance abuse disorder spurred frank dialogue on the stigmatized topic of addiction. Addiction and recovery has been changed by the pandemic. Changes to day-to-day life since the onset of COVID-19 are exacerbating America's addiction problems, Moyer's said. "As we know, too often, people die when they can't get help," Moyers said. "And in the midst of this pandemic, people have been isolated. People have been under stress." New data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released this week show a surge in deaths from overdoses in the past year — 100,000 Americans. In Georgia, more than 1,900 people died of drug-related causes in 2020, according to CDC data released in August. That is a 38.8% increase over data from the previous year. Panelist: William Cope Moyers – Vice President of Public Affairs and Community Relations with Hazelden Betty Ford If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, the following resources are available to help. 24/7 treatment referral and information can be found through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration at 1-800-662-4357 or SAMHSA.gov.

They were so focused on their addict's program. I understand this struggle, and I hope this podcast helps you consider how beneficial having a sponsor would be moving forward.Sandy Swenson says it best:"The hardest thing I have ever done is to acknowledge that I can't control my son's addiction recovery. But maybe the most important thing I've ever done is to let recovery begin with me".Let your recovery begin with you! I am here to help.
