Hey everyone, it's Chris Horder here, but you might know me as Chuck LaFlange from the Ashes to Awesome podcast. We dive deep into the realities of addiction and trauma, something I know all too well. I'm celebrating a huge personal victory – a year of sobriety as of October 21, 2023!

I've got some exciting news to share: I've been given an incredible opportunity for healing therapy at the Yatra Center in beautiful Phuket, Thailand. This isn't just a chance for personal growth; it's also a strategic move to keep the podcast thriving in a more cost-effective location. My family has been amazing, covering my travel expenses, but I'm still facing a financial shortfall.

The podcast does bring in some sponsorship funds, but it's not quite enough to cover everything. The Yatra Center is kindly covering my first month's stay in Thailand, but beyond that, my financial future is a bit up in the air.

This is where I need your help. I'm reaching out to our incredible community for support. Any contribution you can make will go a long way. As a token of my gratitude, I'll give a special shoutout to you on my podcast. If addiction has touched your life, we can also share a story in honor of your loved one.

Whether it's a modest $5, a generous $25, or if you're able to contribute $100, your donation can make a significant difference in my journey.

Join me in this chapter of healing and transformation. Your support is invaluable. Thank you for being a part of this journey and for being a part of my story. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Donate HERE ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
