Episode 64 | Small Victories | Built By The Red Stick Addiction Recovery Podcast

In this episode of the Addiction Recovery Podcast, hosts Ronnie LeDuff and Michael Oakley welcome Chris Flanagan, Director of Business Development at Victory Addiction Recovery Center, to talk about what it takes to build bridges in recovery care and community support.

Chris brings a unique background—after graduating from LSU and working in pharmaceutical, medical device, and wellness sectors, he transitioned into advocacy and recovery work. At Victory, he now leads efforts to expand outreach, partnerships, and resources so more people can access the care they need.

The conversation highlights the challenges of connecting treatment centers with the communities they serve and how business development in recovery must balance mission with sustainability. Chris also reflects on the role of family, integrity, and personal values in guiding his work, as well as the real impact Victory has had through its detox, residential, outpatient, dual-diagnosis, and veterans’ programs.

This episode is for anyone in recovery, supporting a loved one, or working in addiction treatment. It offers an honest look at the infrastructure behind recovery—and the people who make it possible.
