How Sobriety Transformed My Life After Addiction | Therapist Shares Recovery & Trauma Healing Tools

Rise Above with Kevin Lanning

Ryan Soave joins me on Rise Above to share his powerful story of 17 years in sobriety and the lessons he’s learned as a therapist helping others heal from addiction, trauma, and the human condition.

We dive into:

The fear and courage of sharing your story publicly

Why mental health and addiction exist on a spectrum

The importance of learning to sit with uncomfortable feelings

How childhood experiences shape adult behaviors

Strategies to break patterns, slow down, and live with purpose

Ryan also opens up about his own journey—how sobriety transformed his life, the challenges he still faces, and the tools he uses daily to grow as a father, husband, and leader.

If you or someone you love is struggling, Ryan’s insights will remind you that healing is possible and that every emotion—even pain—can be a gateway to growth.
