    Tweetable Quotes“I think the biggest thing for us is that if the client doesn’t buy in, there will be no change. If we’re punishing them or consequencing them, they’re going to do it until the consequence has been lifted. So, really the focus for us is to get them to buy into themselves - to get them to understand what I’m feeling.” (10:29) (John)“For us - the clinical approach - we think of ourselves as a high-intense therapeutic intervention. And so, it’s a deep dive into what’s going on for me, for my family, for everything in my life, and then working through that in different ways.” (12:09) (John)“That’s the hardest part for me, it just tears at me knowing the value of what can happen with [outdoor therapy], and the change that can occur, and the excitement, and then to hear people just bash it and speak negatively about it. It’s hard.” (17:32) (John)“When people think about Wilderness, they think it’s just sending their child off. And I tell parents all the time, ‘You’re not sending your child away. You’re going on the journey with them.’” (23:50) (John)Resources Mentioned

    Tweetable Quotes“I think for me, really what an intervention is is when all else has failed and they don’t hear your voice. The worst thing about addiction, and I think mental illness, is that you don’t know how bad you are. The denial part of it is what keeps so many people from getting well.” (01:21) (Candy)“When I first got into recovery, I was so grim and so serious. And I tell people, we don’t have a hot and cold faucet for feelings - the good feelings and the bad feelings. So, when we want to try to get rid of the bad feelings, we just turn off that one faucet. When we do that, we’re leaving out all the joy and when you begin to finally start to walk through the stuff you’re so frightened of, or embarrassed about, or ashamed, you recover the joy and the laughter.” (06:03) (Jeanie)“Servant leadership goes back to the spiritual person that I am. I think servant leadership just rises above.” (07:55) (Tonda)“It’s beyond me, other than my God, as to why I’m not an alcoholic, why I’m not dead, and why I’m not alive. My family was so incredibly dysfunctional.” (10:52) (Dr. Flowers)“I didn’t inherit anything from anybody. I worked for everything I did, but I manifested it. And I did it with the help of myself, my God, education, hard work, passion the people who love me, and listening to my own intuition.” (13:03) (Dr. Flowers)Resources Mentioned

    Tweetable Quotes“My parents lost a biological child to polio. And, I always thought of myself as a ‘replacement daughter.’ So, I got asked to speak at The American Adoption Conference. And that’s all that isis fractured families. ‘Why did they give me up? I can’t believe it. I can’t find them.’ It’s just one of those things where I started realizing what family was.”(02:54) (Candy)“Every level of recovery has a family involved in it, whether it’s your home group or your community. That’s why I’m sober is my mother-in-law had a black belt in Alcoholics Anonymous.”(07:14) (Candy)“I do a three-day program and I’ll tell them that it’s designed so that the first day we think.
