Methadone AddictJoey Price is an individual who grew up in Port Neches, TX, with a focus on family, friendships, and sports. He demonstrated leadership skills early on, serving as class president for three years and being crowned the class awards king in his high school, PNG. Joey particularly excelled in soccer and went on to become a collegiate kicker for Sam Houston State University. During his time at Sam Houston, Joey experimented with alcohol and hard drugs. Unfortunately, a back injury he suffered in high school resurfaced during his senior year, leading to regular use of painkillers. This eventually led him down a path of white-collar addiction while working for JP Morgan and BNY Mellon in Houston. His addiction struggles culminated in being laid off due to the 2008 financial crash, leading to a methadone addiction that went up to 240mg. Seeking help, Joey made the decision to travel to California for treatment at Covenant Hills after an intervention from his family. The first year of his recovery was a tumultuous journey, but he eventually surrendered his will and embarked on a path of service to others. He immersed himself in Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), worked the steps, and found solace in seeking a higher power. Joey's journey in recovery led him to play a significant role in running Sanctuary House Recovery as CEO. Over the course of ten years, he transitioned to business development and currently serves as an executive director at Story Wellness and senior outreach coordinator with Covenant Hills. Sobriety has allowed him to build a family, with his wife Rachel and children Wesleigh, Willow, and Walker. Today, Joey Price is actively involved in the addiction community as a service professional, an AA member, and a dedicated father.ere
Sober at 23 from FentanylGabe was heavily addicted to substances, most specifically fentanyl. He faced many challenges in his life during his addiction, including being a solid father for his daughter. He entered rehab with some reluctance per his mother's request and did not take his recovery seriously.
This marked the start of a journey of going in and out of treatment centers, and after a few episodes, linking up with the wrong people, going to treatment for the wrong reasons, or placing people into centers to selfishly line their pockets. Gabe was majorly caught in the body-brokering game, plus overdosing quite frequently. He was hospitalized on a few occasions and was even narcanned, which probably saved his life. The good news is Gabe survived not only almost losing his life to addiction but also breaking away from the clutches of one of the largest known body brokers on the West Coast.
Gabe is now a solid father to his daughter, a son to his mother, a grandson to his grandparents, a good member of society, and most importantly, a man of recovery who wholeheartedly helps people in active addiction get their lives back.
Come hear about Gabe’s remarkable journey and transformation on Peji’s Recovery Corner.

The Spiritual Revolution To Addiction RecoveryMichaelis Jacoby was born and raised in Los Angeles California. As a teenager and into his early 20’s, Michaelis battled with addiction, depression and ADHD. Please call or text me any time if I can help you or a loved one get help. (949)751-7761
Several brushes with the law pushed him into a court committed 12 step experience. Michaelis was introduced to this philosophy July 1, 1999 and has remained sober ever since.
Michaelis received the gift of a sober lifestyle and has dedicated his life to helping others achieve the same success. Michaelis has spent twenty of his twenty-four years of sobriety working in the treatment and sober living community. During this time, Michaelis facilitated countless group sessions, family group sessions and one on one sessions with clients. He has worked with clients suffering from the entire spectrum of mental illness.Once sober, Michaelis struggled with several of his own process addictions. He explored other fellowships to treat these maladaptive belief and coping mechanisms. Unfortunately, Michaelis did not find the relief he was looking for. This led him to trying to end his life twice in his first nine years of sobriety.
In 2009, Michaelis was introduced to a life changing selfless practice. Although this process did not immediately free him of these maladaptive coping mechanisms, he received the relief he was looking for. Michaelis has implemented this practice daily with consistency and volume for the last 15 years of his sobriety. The results have been miraculous. He is free.
Through this process, Michaelis realized that once alcohol and drugs were removed from his life, he was suffering from the struggles of the human condition. He learned that these maladaptive belief and behavior systems were not distinct to addicts. Every human being suffers from some level of depression, anxiety, anger, jealousy and the like. Michaelis understood that these struggles were rooted in self-centeredness.
Although Michaelis continued to teach this path to addicts around the world, he wanted to do more. He wanted to make this path available to people outside of the 12-step fellowships.
Michaelis has published a book called, "The Spiritual Revolution: a precise path to personal peace." This book is not only an easy introduction to healing principles, it is also a practice. The practice is rooted in selflessness and intimate connection with the people we come in contact with. The book does not heal its readers solely on the premise of self-knowledge. The book heals through altruistic action.
Michaelis hopes that through the intended utilization of this book, everyone can participate in the path to world peace

Nickole's triumph over addiction!!!Nickole grew up in a single parent home with her mom and brother. A family friend started molesting her at age 8 to 12 years. Nickole started drinking periodically at age 11 and it progressively got worse. She then started free basing cocaine after school with some older friends then continued with some meth in between. She claims she was still "functioning" addict working and going to school. By the age of 20 she was using vicodin from doctors after a medical procedure. Met her kids father and was pregnant using and she managed to quit prior to giving birth. Her son was taken to the newborn ICU and you would think she was waiting to hold her baby but as soon as she had him she made her way down to her car with an IV in her arm and got her dope out of the car and went back upstairs to slam. Running the streets on skidrow doing things she said she'd never do. She finally went to prison and got clean. She graduated with honors from the streets to the seats. She is a miracle because her God made a way for her to help another person!

My Mess Is My Message W/ Sean O GradyNeed Help? Text Me here ⬇ https://msha.ke/interventionist/

If you measure your success and growth in comparison to others you will miss your own achievements and trajectory. Compare and despair is a unhealthy place to be and in this fast-paced, ever-changing world of media and content curation it can be easy to get "lost in the sauce". This was Sean's mindset for far too long, he is now able to embrace every experience as part of the journey good and bad. Enjoy the process. "My mess is my message."
It is easy to fall into victim hood, or have imposter syndrome lacking confidence in oneself. Our brain's can be our own worst enemies. He has struggled with those demons for far too long, as well as the "compare and despair" mindset and "the grass is always greener" which never allows one to be present, enjoy the process, see the growth organically, or be grateful for what you have.
Feeling like he started life behind the 8-Ball, born into a family with a history of alcohol abuse and being overweight from a young age ingrained in him to always feel like "an other", or someone different from his peers. This got worse and perpetuated into an unhealthy relationship with himself, others, and society as a whole. Food was his first addiction, love and validation from the opposite sex, and eventually finding drugs and alcohol to appease his lack of love for himself. A habitual marijuana smoker, drinker, and sampler of other illicit substances this was a crash course in debauchery that took him on a 2.5 decade journey into oblivion that he was fortunate enough to grind to a halt in June 2017 when he got his 3rd DUI and sought the assistance of the recovery system in Orange County, CA. He needed an escape from himself, his geography, the ghosts of his past and present, and start fresh in the area he hoped to finally start making career strides in if he maintained his sobriety.
Living and working in Los Angeles it can be easy to fall into these tropes and traps. Everyone here has 8 separate hustles that pay. Everyone here is working with or has worked with someone you idolize. Stardom. Fame. Glamour. The high-life all seem one Instagram post or TikTok viral video away from catapulting your life into the 4th dimension. Few want to put in the actual reps or time to get there and that's what sets him apart. Growing up outside of Washington, D.C. Sean was blessed with a stellar work ethic, a determined mindset, and an exuberant personality that enables me to stand out amongst his peers and the general public. After cutting his teeth in the music, culture, and arts scene along the East Coast he moved out to California to clean his life up, get sober, and test his mettle professionally because he wanted to give 100% of himself to see if he had what it takes to make it in LA. 6 years later, sober and thriving in one of the most competitive and cut throat industries in existence he's persevered on and continued to adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the LA creative community.

Although formally trained in both the “Break Free” method by Brad Lamm and the “CRAFT” method by Dr. Robert Meyers, Joe primarily engages in CRAFT which aligns perfectly with what he has believed for a long time…that Recovery is not just for the person struggling with Substance Use Disorder but for the entire family!
Joe has worked in healthcare for nearly 33 years. He started off as a Respiratory Therapist specializing in Emergency room and Intensive Care treatment. After 10 years in the acute care setting, Joe became a Medical Marketing professional selling a number of different medical services and products for 18 years, owning his own medical equipment company for 7 of those years. Four years ago Joe decided to transition into the SUD/Mental Health space of healthcare. A decision born from Joe's sincere desire to help people just like him. Joe recovered from his own battle with drugs and alcohol just over nine years ago.
Since transitioning into SUD/Mental health treatment, Joe has worked as an Outreach Coordinator, Treatment Advocate and most recently as an Interventionist. While working in outreach Joe realized he had a natural ability to connect, not only with his fellow addicts, but also their families and loved ones. Joe states that “When the family is educated on addiction and their loved ones behavior, they become enlightened and empowered. This is when together we can create an impactful and life changing experience and get their afflicted loved one to agree to treatment and a new life!”
Joe professionally trained as an interventionist and launched his new intervention practice, Transcend Interventions in 2021.

Beating Addiction & Chasing Your DreamsWesley Geer is a professional guitar player, songwriter, recording artist, and producer, who signed his first record deal to Jive Records with the band he founded, (Hed) P.E. Wes toured the world for nearly a decade, and the band sold over 1 million records worldwide. What many didn’t know at the time was while he was masterminding, and leading his band to the member’s first-ever record deal, Wes was a full-blown drug addict, using alcohol, methamphetamines and other drugs, daily, for years.

As a progressive disease, no matter the efforts to quell his addiction and control it, things continually got worse. After nearly a decade of touring the world, with the biggest names in rock, Wes’ life was imploding, and he finally left in 2003, for a ‘lifestyle change’ that ultimately ended him up in rehab in 2004.
In rehab, he learned tools for recovery and latched onto the stories of others that had overcome their addictions, stories of people being so far down in a deadly hole, but somehow not only got sober but achieved great things.
The following years found Wes as an instructor at Fusion Academy & Learning Center, an alternative school where he taught music to 6th through 12th graders who had struggled in more traditional academic settings. These same troubled students often succeeded in Fusion’s adaptive one-on-one learning environment. Geer’s love of teaching blossomed during his time. His classes served as the earliest prototype for R2R; he and one student at a time would write and play songs together. Geer said he quickly noticed “the engagement and the buy-in” the students had in these sessions was much greater than a typical ‘lesson’ as the student’s energy was transformed with hope and self-esteem while songwriting and playing music together.
In 2010, Wes decided he wanted to get back into music and started praying and meditating on what that would look like. Not long after, and only because he was sober, Geer was offered the gig as a guitarist with the legendary rock band Korn. He traveled the world, performing in more than 40 countries with the multi-platinum stars, as well as appeared numerous live televised and studio recording sessions.
Geer was then moved to give back, wanting to create something that could help people who struggled the same way he had. He then founded Rock to Recovery (R2R), a non-profit organization created on 12/12/12 with the purpose of providing those in various types of treatment and recovery programs the cathartic, uplifting, healing experience of connectivity through playing music.
It’s a therapy Geer himself turned to after years of abusing drugs and alcohol. During his stay in rehab, he admits that music was his “most intimate friend” during his darkest days, allowing him to cope with the rollercoaster of emotions that consumed his early days in treatment.

Fake smile, bad skin, soulless and blank eyes, most of all spiritually bankrupt. Please call or text me any time if I can help you or a loved one get help. (949)751-7761
Now, 5 years sober and a smile that she can’t fake because she has her life back thanks to the program of Alcoholics Anonymous. Negin’s story doesn’t include jails or being in a coma but it includes one of anguish, pain and isolation which for her was rock bottom. Today, she overcomes the challenges in life not by using and drinking, but using the tools she has learned in AA to rise above.

During her five-year tenure at an LGTBQ specific treatment center, she focused on creating and improving policies and procedures. As Director of Operations, one of her proudest achievements was hiring a diverse staff that thrived and creating a safe space for those seeking recovery.
In April of 2021 Christina returned to the Friendly House as the Admissions and Business Development Manager. In January of 2022, she became the 4th Executive Director of the Friendly House. “To have gone through the house and to now be running the house is a full circle moment for me. I’m humbled and excited for this opportunity to elevate an already amazing program,” said Christina.

The Spiritual Revolution To Addiction RecoveryMichaelis Jacoby was born and raised in Los Angeles California. As a teenager and into his early 20’s, Michaelis battled with addiction, depression and ADHD. Please call or text me any time if I can help you or a loved one get help. (949)751-7761
Several brushes with the law pushed him into a court committed 12 step experience. Michaelis was introduced to this philosophy July 1, 1999 and has remained sober ever since.
Michaelis received the gift of a sober lifestyle and has dedicated his life to helping others achieve the same success. Michaelis has spent twenty of his twenty-four years of sobriety working in the treatment and sober living community. During this time, Michaelis facilitated countless group sessions, family group sessions and one on one sessions with clients. He has worked with clients suffering from the entire spectrum of mental illness. Once sober, Michaelis struggled with several of his own process addictions. He explored other fellowships to treat these maladaptive belief and coping mechanisms. Unfortunately, Michaelis did not find the relief he was looking for. This led him to trying to end his life twice in his first nine years of sobriety.
In 2009, Michaelis was introduced to a life changing selfless practice. Although this process did not immediately free him of these maladaptive coping mechanisms, he received the relief he was looking for. Michaelis has implemented this practice daily with consistency and volume for the last 15 years of his sobriety. The results have been miraculous. He is free.
Through this process, Michaelis realized that once alcohol and drugs were removed from his life, he was suffering from the struggles of the human condition. He learned that these maladaptive belief and behavior systems were not distinct to addicts. Every human being suffers from some level of depression, anxiety, anger, jealousy and the like. Michaelis understood that these struggles were rooted in self-centeredness.
Although Michaelis continued to teach this path to addicts around the world, he wanted to do more. He wanted to make this path available to people outside of the 12-step fellowships.
Michaelis has published a book called, "The Spiritual Revolution: a precise path to personal peace." This book is not only an easy introduction to healing principles, it is also a practice. The practice is rooted in selflessness and intimate connection with the people we come in contact with. The book does not heal its readers solely on the premise of self-knowledge. The book heals through altruistic action.
Michaelis hopes that through the intended utilization of this book, everyone can participate in the path to world peace

Nickole's triumph over addiction!!!Nickole grew up in a single parent home with her mom and brother. A family friend started molesting her at age 8 to 12 years. Nickole started drinking periodically at age 11 and it progressively got worse. She then started free basing cocaine after school with some older friends then continued with some meth in between. She claims she was still "functioning" addict working and going to school. By the age of 20 she was using vicodin from doctors after a medical procedure. Met her kids father and was pregnant using and she managed to quit prior to giving birth. Her son was taken to the newborn ICU and you would think she was waiting to hold her baby but as soon as she had him she made her way down to her car with an IV in her arm and got her dope out of the car and went back upstairs to slam. Running the streets on skidrow doing things she said she'd never do. She finally went to prison and got clean. She graduated with honors from the streets to the seats. She is a miracle because her God made a way for her to help another person!

My Mess Is My Message W/ Sean O GradyNeed Help? Text Me here ⬇ https://msha.ke/interventionist/Let's connect on social! https://www.tiktok.com/@pejinterventions https://www.instagram.com/drug_interv... https://www.facebook.com/PejizCorner/
If you measure your success and growth in comparison to others you will miss your own achievements and trajectory. Compare and despair is a unhealthy place to be and in this fast-paced, ever-changing world of media and content curation it can be easy to get "lost in the sauce". This was Sean's mindset for far too long, he is now able to embrace every experience as part of the journey good and bad. Enjoy the process. "My mess is my message." It is easy to fall into victim hood, or have imposter syndrome lacking confidence in oneself. Our brain's can be our own worst enemies. He has struggled with those demons for far too long, as well as the "compare and despair" mindset and "the grass is always greener" which never allows one to be present, enjoy the process, see the growth organically, or be grateful for what you have.
Feeling like he started life behind the 8-Ball, born into a family with a history of alcohol abuse and being overweight from a young age ingrained in him to always feel like "an other", or someone different from his peers. This got worse and perpetuated into an unhealthy relationship with himself, others, and society as a whole. Food was his first addiction, love and validation from the opposite sex, and eventually finding drugs and alcohol to appease his lack of love for himself. A habitual marijuana smoker, drinker, and sampler of other illicit substances this was a crash course in debauchery that took him on a 2.5 decade journey into oblivion that he was fortunate enough to grind to a halt in June 2017 when he got his 3rd DUI and sought the assistance of the recovery system in Orange County, CA. He needed an escape from himself, his geography, the ghosts of his past and present, and start fresh in the area he hoped to finally start making career strides in if he maintained his sobriety.
Living and working in Los Angeles it can be easy to fall into these tropes and traps. Everyone here has 8 separate hustles that pay. Everyone here is working with or has worked with someone you idolize. Stardom. Fame. Glamour. The high-life all seem one Instagram post or TikTok viral video away from catapulting your life into the 4th dimension. Few want to put in the actual reps or time to get there and that's what sets him apart. Growing up outside of Washington, D.C. Sean was blessed with a stellar work ethic, a determined mindset, and an exuberant personality that enables me to stand out amongst his peers and the general public. After cutting his teeth in the music, culture, and arts scene along the East Coast he moved out to California to clean his life up, get sober, and test his mettle professionally because he wanted to give 100% of himself to see if he had what it takes to make it in LA. 6 years later, sober and thriving in one of the most competitive and cut throat industries in existence he's persevered on and continued to adapt to the ever-changing landscape of the LA creative community.

Although formally trained in both the “Break Free” method by Brad Lamm and the “CRAFT” method by Dr. Robert Meyers, Joe primarily engages in CRAFT which aligns perfectly with what he has believed for a long time…that Recovery is not just for the person struggling with Substance Use Disorder but for the entire family!
Joe has worked in healthcare for nearly 33 years. He started off as a Respiratory Therapist specializing in Emergency room and Intensive Care treatment. After 10 years in the acute care setting, Joe became a Medical Marketing professional selling a number of different medical services and products for 18 years, owning his own medical equipment company for 7 of those years. Four years ago Joe decided to transition into the SUD/Mental Health space of healthcare. A decision born from Joe's sincere desire to help people just like him. Joe recovered from his own battle with drugs and alcohol just over nine years ago.
Since transitioning into SUD/Mental health treatment, Joe has worked as an Outreach Coordinator, Treatment Advocate and most recently as an Interventionist. While working in outreach Joe realized he had a natural ability to connect, not only with his fellow addicts, but also their families and loved ones. Joe states that “When the family is educated on addiction and their loved ones behavior, they become enlightened and empowered. This is when together we can create an impactful and life changing experience and get their afflicted loved one to agree to treatment and a new life!”
Joe professionally trained as an interventionist and launched his new intervention practice, Transcend Interventions in 2021.

Beating Addiction & Chasing Your DreamsWesley Geer is a professional guitar player, songwriter, recording artist, and producer, who signed his first record deal to Jive Records with the band he founded, (Hed) P.E. Wes toured the world for nearly a decade, and the band sold over 1 million records worldwide. What many didn’t know at the time was while he was masterminding, and leading his band to the member’s first-ever record deal, Wes was a full-blown drug addict, using alcohol, methamphetamines and other drugs, daily, for years.

As a progressive disease, no matter the efforts to quell his addiction and control it, things continually got worse. After nearly a decade of touring the world, with the biggest names in rock, Wes’ life was imploding, and he finally left in 2003, for a ‘lifestyle change’ that ultimately ended him up in rehab in 2004.
In rehab, he learned tools for recovery and latched onto the stories of others that had overcome their addictions, stories of people being so far down in a deadly hole, but somehow not only got sober but achieved great things.
The following years found Wes as an instructor at Fusion Academy & Learning Center, an alternative school where he taught music to 6th through 12th graders who had struggled in more traditional academic settings. These same troubled students often succeeded in Fusion’s adaptive one-on-one learning environment. Geer’s love of teaching blossomed during his time. His classes served as the earliest prototype for R2R; he and one student at a time would write and play songs together. Geer said he quickly noticed “the engagement and the buy-in” the students had in these sessions was much greater than a typical ‘lesson’ as the student’s energy was transformed with hope and self-esteem while songwriting and playing music together.
In 2010, Wes decided he wanted to get back into music and started praying and meditating on what that would look like. Not long after, and only because he was sober, Geer was offered the gig as a guitarist with the legendary rock band Korn. He traveled the world, performing in more than 40 countries with the multi-platinum stars, as well as appeared numerous live televised and studio recording sessions.
Geer was then moved to give back, wanting to create something that could help people who struggled the same way he had. He then founded Rock to Recovery (R2R), a non-profit organization created on 12/12/12 with the purpose of providing those in various types of treatment and recovery programs the cathartic, uplifting, healing experience of connectivity through playing music.
It’s a therapy Geer himself turned to after years of abusing drugs and alcohol. During his stay in rehab, he admits that music was his “most intimate friend” during his darkest days, allowing him to cope with the rollercoaster of emotions that consumed his early days in treatment.

Like for many normal curious teens exploring and experimenting, John F.K’s drinking and drugging career began when he binged during his first drunk; his abnormal reaction to liquor was normalized amidst raucous 80’s party culture. The teenage binge drinking led to alcohol poisoning seemed un-exceptional and unworrysome and his addiction went undetected by those who may have recognized it. John explains his experience taking drugs and drinking as something sublime, by altering his consciousness he felt like he would be able to understand the deeper mystery of life. Addiction is less about the substance itself and more about what is underneath the addiction, so instead of cutting back on booze John switched to marijuana becoming a connoisseur, a grower and a dealer, essentially an addict obsessed. Mixing in the party drugs of the 90s such as Ecstasy and other Hallucinogens, living a life focused on drugs and not on good choices led to mental crises, dropping out of college, homelessness, psychiatric hospitalization. John got sober in 1995 at the age of 22 and as a result of the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous and other spiritual practice, today he’s a fine specimen of manhood as one could ever wish to meet being able to face his life sober successfully, transcend the lows, hold strong through the highs, and make demonstrations of the power of his spiritual practice. And he’s still a party animal. John’s philosophy is he who has the most fun wins, and now it’s just about figuring out what fun actually is.

She has truly been transformed and uses her experiences and passion every day to pour into the lives of others. She has turned her pain into purpose and is honored and thankful that she has lived to talk about it. Danielle currently lives in Long Beach, CA.

Trauma Recovery Philosophies & The Truth W/ Booboo Garcia My guest this week is Booboo Garcia! We discuss the philosophy of trauma recovery. This is an epic conversation about trauma you don't want to miss! Watch the video interview here: https://youtu.be/QSLlHfU4MoE

When he finally reached out for help he was a broken shell of a man. Once he entered the world of recovery this illiterate man learned to read and study many schools of thought and spirit. He’s not only a man of recovery but one of the deepest souls I’ve ever met and encountered.

Kylan started her recovery journey 5 1/2 years ago in a treatment center for her alcoholism and eating disorders, where she was introduced to yoga as an experiential therapy. She developed a daily yoga practice to supplement therapy and 12 step meetings for sobriety maintenance and personal growth. She believes that using mindful movement as part of a recovery routine accelerates the development of self awareness, self respect and appreciation and reduces likelihood of developing substitute addictions like nicotine dependence, disordered eating and body obsession. She facilitates groups and classes in and out of the recovery community helping others to connect to their inner joy, compassion and wisdom.

Earl Hightower Talks About Addiction Recoverys If you need help overcoming addiction, please call me! (949)751-7761 Connect with me on TikTok and On YouTube to watch recovery videos and live streams!
For over 35 years, Earl Hightower has worked on the front lines of addiction and recovery. The unique perspective that only behavioral health intervention work can offer caused Earl to recognize that the greatest gap in addiction services is during the first 60 days following residential treatment. In other words, people are not making it across The Bridge From Treatment To Recovery©. They are relapsing, post-treatment, before they have had a chance to firmly connect themselves to their recovery communities. As a result, Earl’s focus for Hightower Associates’ family of companies has been to develop systems and strategies that support our clients in their goal of achieving a lasting connection to recovery.
