Hosts Guy Lynch and Angela Valdivia talk about Crossroads Recovery's new Soulback Sober Bar, the growing partnership with Port Huron Odyssey, and local recovery services including housing and intensive outpatient programs.

They discuss harm reduction, the MORT team's overdose-reduction work, Narcan distribution, coping skills and boundaries, and invite the community to get involved and support recovery efforts.

On this episode of the Dumpster Fire Recovery Podcast, host Rick and co-hosts Guy and Angela sit down with Blake Harvey to explore his path from early sobriety through relapse to sustained recovery. Blake shares honest stories about sober living, parenting, financial change, and finding his identity as a queer man in recovery.

They discuss the difference between emotional and physical bottoms, the importance of accountability and calling someone when tempted, and how recovery opened the door to school, relationships, and a new life—offering hope and practical insight for listeners navigating their own journeys.

Dumpster Fire Recovery Podcast

In this episode of the Dumpster Fire Recovery Podcast, hosts Rick, Guy, and Angela speak with Kyle Latham, a peer recovery coach who shares his raw journey from homelessness and violent lows to long-term recovery and meaningful work in the field. Kyle describes his turning point, time at Sacred Heart, and the people and programs that helped him rebuild his life.

The conversation explores themes of codependency, expectations of self and others, multiple pathways to recovery, the role of peer support and clinical services, and the power of letting go—as inspired by Mel Robbins' "Let Them Theory." The hosts also discuss local recovery housing and collaboration between agencies to support people transitioning from treatment or incarceration.
