Join us as we speak with local and national recovery advocates as they offer advice to those in recovery on ways to stay connected.
This week’s guest is Montee Ball. Montee played college football for the Wisconsin Badgers and was drafted by the Broncos in the 2nd round of the 2013 NFL draft. His NFL career sputtered out in three seasons due to issues stemming from his alcoholism and depression. Montee is on a path to continue helping others avoid his mistakes by speaking candidly about his struggles with alcoholism and mental illness.
This week’s topics are: 1) Finding healthy ways to cope with stress, anxiety and depression 2) Feeling obligated in helping others who have started their sobriety journey 3) how important it was for me in having a sense of community
