Putting Family First: A Vision for Recovery with Mike Loverde

How can morning practices and daily intentions not only shape personal growth but also drive business success? We explore this question, and more, in a deeply insightful conversation with our special guest, Mike, the Founder, CEO, and Clinical Director of Family First Intervention. We kick off our conversation with a discussion on the transformative power of mindfully setting daily intentions and building morning practices.

In the second segment, we plunge into Mike's journey from addiction to running a leading intervention business, illuminating the path from personal trauma to empowering others. Mike delves into the genesis of Family First Intervention, sharing insights on how the organization grew from a solo operation to a dedicated team of over 30 professionals committed to tackling substance abuse and mental disorders. The discussion shifts gears as we uncover the significant but often overlooked role families play in addiction recovery. We dig deep into how Mike's unique approach to intervention, which places equal emphasis on the well-being of the substance user and their family, has led to more successful recovery outcomes.

As we wrap up the episode, Mike unveils his ambitious 10-year vision for the family recovery coaching program - a vision that's firmly grounded in empathy, unselfishness, and most importantly, putting family first. He also reflects on his legacy and shares invaluable advice on setting goals, compelling us to focus on doing one thing right, rather than being overwhelmed by trying to do everything. Whether you're grappling with addiction, know someone who is, or simply looking for inspiration to turn adversity into action, this episode is a must-listen.
