Listen "#3 Two Lanes Of Recovery"
Episode Synopsis
Recovery doesn’t look the same for everyone. For some, the healthiest path is complete abstinence—stepping away from the behaviors and activities that once consumed them. For others, it’s about intentional engagement—rebuilding a healthier relationship through boundaries, mindfulness, and clarity.In this episode of Behind The Breaks, Alyx Effron, Founder of Collectors MD, explores the two distinct lanes of recovery and how they apply to collecting, gambling, and other high-risk, dopamine-driven activities like sports betting, day trading, and fantasy sports. From the collectors who had to walk away completely, to those who still find joy in the hobby but want to stay ahead of potential pitfalls, both paths deserve recognition and respect.At its heart, recovery is about finding what keeps you safe, grounded, and in control—not following a cookie-cutter formula, and not letting outside voices dictate your lane.Whether you’re considering abstinence, practicing intentional engagement, or still figuring out where you belong, this conversation is a reminder: you are not alone.Subscribe, comment, and join the movement. And remember to collect with intention, not compulsion.Watch The Episode On YouTubeLearn More & Join The Movement:Website: collectorsmd.comSocials: hopp.bio/collectorsmdWeekly Meeting Sign-Up: bit.ly/45koiMXContact: [email protected]: @collectorsmdInstagram: @collectorsmd#CollectorsMD | #RipResponsibly | #CollectResponsibly
