Please join us and some amazing speakers to celebrate and show love to our recovery community and the families that support us.    In this episode, we went through the guests for this season and talked about some of our favorite moments. We had an absolute blast with everyone who came on the show! We not only had amazing guests, but we also partnered with the Sober Curator to become the Candian Curators.  We also announced a big project that will be launching this year that will help you go from pain to purpose and give you a system to start making a real difference in your communities.    Stay in touch by visiting our website www.seekpurposenow.com and following us on social media. We also want to invite you to our Wednesday Clubhouse Chat with Alysse at the Sober Curator called SOBER POP.

Welcome to Seek Purpose the podcast where we support and empower people in recovery who want to turn their pain into purpose. This is our Thursday Takeaway show where we dissect Monday's episode and bring you the best tips, tricks, and inspiration to support you in unleashing your purpose.  Transforming yourself is one thing but managing recovery while in a relationship takes it to a whole new level.  Did you get into a relationship in early recovery? Or did you want to? Get in touch with us we want to hear all about it.  In this episode, we are discussing the 13th step, the pros, and cons of dating in early recovery, and finding purpose in your relationship.  These are our thoughts and experiences with relationships in recovery. What are yours?

This week Ronny and Nathan came on to share what life is like navigating a relationship in early recovery. There are so many incredible takeaways in this episode for anyone that is considering starting a relationship before your 1st year sober. We had the best time with these two and will be following up on some of the topics we discussed in this episode on our very first Thursday Throwback starting this Thursday on all your favorite podcasting apps.  Ronny is a sober influencer who is taking over TikTok with recovery skits and lives that are inspiring thousands of people. He was one of the first TikTokers we went crazy for and we will definitely be following up on his journey.  Nathan is giving back in big ways by working with Oxford House Inc. doing outreach. He is passionate about giving back to the recovery community and getting as many addicts a bed and chance at recovery as possible. He is a loving partner to Ronny as well as a father to a 12-year old that he lit up when talking about after the show wrapped. A huge thank you to our guest and all of our amazing listeners that make this show possible.

This episode was such a blast! We started the show off with the HUGE announcement of Mike and Jens engagement! What a way to kick off our Valentine's Day episode. If you are not aware of who these two are please go and search for Recovery Mike on TikTok or on Instagram @recoveryarmyoutreach. They do live's together all the time and are such an inspiring and hilarious couple.  Tonight we got to hear their love story and how God had their paths aligning from as early as their childhood. Mike opened up about how Jen is his rock in the work that he is doing and how he worked hard on himself after a failed marriage and had to relearn who he was prior to reconnecting with Jen. They both have hearts of service and work tirelessly to help and support others while supporting and encouraging each other. The Recovery Army Outreach was created as a way for them to give back to communities suffering from addiction and homelessness. They provide necessities and help provide dignity and humanity to people who are on the edge of losing hope. They also have online support meetings and inspirational social media content that you need to check out.  Check out www.recoveryarmyoutreach.com to learn more about how to support this organization's mission.

This week we had planned to have Tom MacDonald on the show, but it seems God had other plans. We hope to reschedule and have him share his journey with this community soon.  Instead, we were humbled and able to experience something so special that only God himself could have lined up! This episode we had many listeners hop on and give powerful messages which you'll love and connect with! Many examples of how Podcasts, music, tiktok and social media is rapidly changing how people are connecting and finding purpose in their recovery.  We hope you enjoy this episode.
