What does it really mean to recover, not just stay sober?
In this episode of Show Up, Daryl Dittmer sits down with addiction counselor and former football coach Mike Coyne to explore the deeper work behind lasting recovery. Drawing from his own eight years in recovery and years helping families navigate addiction, Mike shares why sobriety alone is not the finish line and how real transformation happens when people begin meeting their deeper human needs.
Together they unpack the tension between science and personal responsibility, the danger of hiding behind mental health buzzwords, and why lasting change often starts with a simple but powerful ingredient: the willingness to show up and do the work.
In this conversation, they discuss:
- The difference between sobriety and true recovery
- Why motivation and personal responsibility still matter in healing
- How redefining success can transform a life after addiction
Recovery is not a label, a program, or a perfect system. It is a process of evolution. And it begins the moment you decide to show up for your life.
