In this episode of the Dumpster Fire Recovery Podcast, hosts Rick, Guy, and Angela speak with Kyle Latham, a peer recovery coach who shares his raw journey from homelessness and violent lows to long-term recovery and meaningful work in the field. Kyle describes his turning point, time at Sacred Heart, and the people and programs that helped him rebuild his life.

The conversation explores themes of codependency, expectations of self and others, multiple pathways to recovery, the role of peer support and clinical services, and the power of letting go—as inspired by Mel Robbins' "Let Them Theory." The hosts also discuss local recovery housing and collaboration between agencies to support people transitioning from treatment or incarceration.

In this episode of Dumpster Fire Recovery, hosts Guy Lynch and Rick Albers welcome Ken Jones of Odyssey House to discuss harm reduction, the Mobile Outreach Response Team (formerly the Mobile Overdose Response Team), and how community collaboration is saving lives. They cover Narcan distribution, jail outreach, residential and outpatient services, and the real stories of people rebuilding their lives.

Listeners will hear about practical recovery tools, the importance of staying alive to find long-term recovery, and how local programs and settlement-funded grants are expanding support across the community.
