We're BACK, Reader!
We've spent some much-needed time recharging as a family and preparing for our upcoming new season, but you can now look forward to new podcast content arriving in your feed!
We've got something special to share with you over the next few months - something that may make a life-changing impact in your life, or the life of a friend or family member.
The RECOVER AND OVERCOME Mini-Series
Life is full of incredible challenges - some that we can't avoid, and some that our choices lead us to. These challenges include addictions, mental health struggles like depression, trauma, and critical illness. In each case, there's a battle to face and a path we must take to overcome that challenge.
So we're sharing a series of "Recover and Overcome" episodes with special guests that will reveal how they found freedom and victory over the life challenges that tried to knock them off the path to a blessed life. You'll see one of these special episodes appear every other week!
In the first episode of this series, we open the studio doors to Tony Calatayud, a cherished friend and now family member to the Alessi clan. This deeply personal and honest conversation explores how Tony made the radical decision to totally give up alcohol — after coming to terms with his drinking that quietly permeated his professional and family life for years.
Episode Highlights
- A Hidden Struggle: Tony Calatayud shares how seemingly harmless habits from his college years slowly escalated, eventually affecting his marriage, children, and sense of leadership at home
- The Impact on Family: Learn how the effects unfolded over the years and why alcoholism is rarely obvious to outsiders. Steve and Tony both share examples of how pain within the family often stays unspoken until it can't be ignored any longer.
- Faith-Fueled Recovery: Tony Calatayud discusses how God’s promises and a focus on generational destiny led him away from traditional 12-step programs into a unique path to sobriety.
