89 Blake Cohen - Finding your own authentic self in recovery: “On the search for my own identity”
from Neff Inspiration · host Neff Inspiration
In Blake's words: As was the case for me, so many people who are affected by substance use disorders feel lost in their disease. The disease became my identity so finding sobriety meant I was stripped of that and had to start over. This is the greatest gift recovery offers us. We are given the opportunity to start over and finally become the person that is aligned with our core values. Recovery gave me my identity and taught me that I can be accepted for exactly who I am. Blake Cohen is a Certified Addictions Professional through the Florida Certification Board, a Certified Life Coach, has a Bachelor’s degree in psychology from Florida Atlantic University, and is currently earning his Master's Degree in Leadership from Nova Southeastern University. Fueled by passion, education, and his professional, personal & family experiences with addiction, Blake aims to assist those that have been directly, or indirectly, affected by Substance Use Disorders towards a path of understanding and healing. He is also the best-selling author of the book, “I love you, More: Short Stories of Addiction, Recovery, and Loss from the Family’s Perspective” that can be found on Amazon. Blake's 3 top tips: 1.
