Episode 45- Dylan Lundgren: Community was the bridge from isolation to connection

Dylan, TEDx speaker and addiction recovery advocate, has made it his mission to work with individuals and organizations to increase engagement in the addiction recovery process and improve long-term outcomes. In recovery since 2004, he reflects on his mental health challenges as an adolescent, when depression and suicidal ideation consumed his early teenage years. Later, what began as a night of drinking in college to numb his emotional pain, eventually ended after many years with a stint in the county jail where he decided to begin his much-needed sobriety journey. Today, by reflecting on purpose and value, he empowers individuals to embrace recovery and access ways to live a fun, healthy, authentic lifestyle while pursuing their dreams and goals: moving from dealing with life to enjoying life! Most importantly, he believes the power of community is essential in addressing addiction and related challenges. Connect with Dylan at dylanlundgren.com.
