We are all in Recovery from something and the vast majority of us need an Intervention in some area of our lives. By getting Support from friends, family, and professionals, we can grow through any of life’s challenges. But we need to remain teachable and find new forms of Education that will help us learn how to take on old problems in new ways.
RISE Radio will address and offer solutions to issues that are in the national spotlight, or need to be, such as addiction and recovery, college health issues, leadership, self-esteem and current events. The purpose is to empower you, your friends, family and co-workers, to make better and more informed choices and to learn from the experience of others how to overcome the barriers that interfere with your personal and professional growth.
