Description
The 217 Recovery Podcast shares real stories of addiction, recovery, and resilience from northern Michigan and beyond. Hosted by Corey Winfield, founder of 217 Recovery.
What started in a sober living home in April 2019 has become an honest, unfiltered conversation about what it really takes to get sober and stay sober. From early recovery struggles to long-term sobriety, from relapse to redemption—these are the messy, hopeful, funny, and real stories that don't often get told.
Each episode features guests from all walks of recovery: people in early sobriety, long-timers, treatment professionals, family members, and anyone with a story that might help someone else take the next step.
Whether you're in recovery yourself, supporting someone who is, or just curious about the journey from addiction to sobriety, you'll find authentic voices sharing their experiences with substance use disorder, mental health, treatment, peer support, and building a life worth living.
