Ep 15. Harm Reduction VS Abstinence: Exploring the risks and benefits with Robbie Shaw

Ep 1. My Story of Recovery

Release Date: 08/07/2022

Description: In this debut episode of Behind The Smile with Ash Butterss, host Ash shares her own experience and journey into recovery.   From an early age, Ash learnt to hide her true emotions behind a big smile. She used this mask as a way of keeping herself protected and continued doing so all throughout her twenties. On the outside, Ash looked as though she was living a "normal" life but by the age of 30, addiction had taken hold and she was slowly dying on the inside.  Since checking into rehab on the 24th February 2020, Ash has remained sober and is now on a mission to remove the stigma around mental health and addiction by normalising the conversation. Join Ash each week, as she discusses topics relating to recovery and speaks to others in recovery about the time in their life when they too were hiding behind the smile.  Find me: @ashbutterss / ashbutterss.com If you or someone you know if struggling with addiction, please reach out for support. Some support options include: • A healthcare professional • Alcoholics Anonymous • Lifeline or Beyond Blue (Australia) • CheckPoint (global) If you'd like to support the show you can "Buy Me A Coffee" by following the link below: YES I'D LOVE TO SUPPORT BEHIND THE SMILE PODCAST

Ep 58. One year of Behind the Smile, with special guest Rod Butterss

Release Date: 08/06/2023

Description: It’s an extra special episode this week as we celebrate one whole year of Behind The Smile, and to mark the occasion I’ve invited back to the show, my dad Rod. Dad was the first ever guest to join me on Behind The Smile and his episode (Ep 2. From Manic to Mindful) is still one of the most popular episodes to date!! This time, we decided to hand the power over to you and have answered some of the brilliant questions you, the listeners sent in. Here are the questions we covered in this chat: What’s been the biggest lesson you’ve learned in starting the podcast and becoming an entrepreneur? What’s been the hardest thing to overcome outside of sobriety? What’s your mental health journey been like over the years, and what are your thoughts on medication in recovery? Was there a big drug taking culture at your high school? Did your friends do it too? As a parent, what advice would you give to others raising children in regard to addiction awareness? Growing up in an alcoholic home, what would you have wanted your parents to have done differently? This was a deep conversation that at times felt like a low-key family therapy session. What I love about my conversations with dad is that we speak openly and from the heart, leaving nothing unsaid. To everyone that has supported Behind The Smile over the past 12 months, I can’t thank you enough. Each of you are in my heart and together we will continue to remove the stigma around mental health, trauma and addiction. When we recover loudly, no one need suffer in silence. xoxo You can follow Ash and Behind The Smile on IG here: @ashbutterss You can find Rod using the links below: LinkeIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rodbutterss/ If you or someone you know if struggling with mental health or addiction, please reach out for support.
