Get set to traverse the enchanting landscapes of Costa Rica, as we sail through a captivating conversation with Justin, our first international guest. Justin, a veteran who found solace and a unique recovery path in this tropical paradise, takes us on a journey marked by resilience, discovery, and personal growth. From navigating through the contrasting cultures on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts, to uncovering the potential of community care in a foreign land, Justin's experiences paint a vivid picture of his life in Costa Rica.
As a North Star in the recovery landscape, the veteran's treatment center run by a former Vietnam Green Beret holds a special place in Justin's story. He shares the striking dichotomy between the US VA services and the holistic community care network in Costa Rica. Beyond therapies and treatments, Justin's story is enriched by unforgettable friendships, heartening encounters, and the power of acceptance.
Ever fancied a peek into the routine of a 90-day training program in the serene backdrop of Costa Rica? Justin offers a detailed narrative, emphasizing the vital role of healthy living as an integral facet of the recovery process. Our interaction takes a breezy turn as Justin tackles rapid-fire questions, divulging his perceptions about work, leisure, and strength. We wrap up our chat gleaming with plans to extend support to fellow veterans through the Reach program, and a delightful tale of Justin's latest addition - a baby sloth! Tune in for an episode brimming with inspiration, personal insights, and the irresistible charm of Costa Rica.
