Recovery Ecosystem Podcast
by Dr. Andre Johnson

As an initiative of the Detroit Recovery Project, the Recovery Ecosystem Podcast brings forward stories and insights you don’t always hear in formal treatment settings. It’s real, it’s personal, and it opens the door to conversations that matter. If you’re in recovery, supporting someone you love, or just curious about how people rebuild their lives, you’ll find something here that sticks with you. Listen in, take what resonates, and keep going.
