    Welcome to episode 16 of 'The Reaching Out Show' dear listeners, and this week Nick is tackling a subject we're all intimate with - procrastination. There's a little bit of it in all of use, and a lot of it in those of us who have been through addiction and into recovery. It gives us higher levels of stress and annoyance, and yet still we bury our heads in the sand? Why? Listen to this episode now to hear some great suggestions on how we can deal with it in an effective, adult way.

    Welcome to episode 15 of The Reaching Out Show. Continuing the theme for 2022 of motivating ourselves to grow during this year, today Nick looks at embracing positivity, and working out who the "real me" is in Recovery. In active addiction, our identity was often portrayed through our job, or our role in some element of society or another. But really, that was all part of the façade. So, how do we work out who we really are? Tune in now to hear more!!
