Sometimes things don’t always work out. Whether that’s being vulnerable with someone or taking the risk on a career path. Though, what if you didn’t let that one situation that went sideways dictate your life from then on? And instead continued to take risks, using each outcome as a learning experience.
Joshua New, Executive Director for an addiction treatment center, could have stopped trying many times throughout his journey in addiction. His journey with substances started at a young age and it wasn’t until his 5th time in treatment when he decided to make a lasting change. Instead of giving treatment one last try and taking the chance to connect with new people, Joshua could have let his past experiences dictate his future. It wasn’t easy, but Joshua continued to take risks and is now celebrating 20 years sober.
On this episode of Success is Subjective, Joshua joins Joanna to share his experience going from an addict who couldn’t seem to make a change, to now working with addicts. Joshua’s story will be sure to inspire you that no matter how many times you fall, there’s room for change and to create a better future for yourself. Listen in for Joshua’s insight on how much connection and choosing to continue to take risks for himself, has impacted his life forever.
