Susan and Dave Kenney nailed it! Their Brain First approach is a refreshing update for the addiction, recovery community."
Dr. Daniel Hochman

"Susan and Dave provide a much-needed update to the antiquated field of addiction treatment. They understand the most crucial aspect of addiction: that it is a symptom of underlying suffering."

"Dave & Susan really know what they are talking about. This is life-changing for me and many others who come to me for support.."
It’s about people. It’s about hope. It’s about believing in the greatness within everyone. It’s about looking beyond the challenges, the pain, and the struggle—and seeing the opportunity for something more.
When you think of recovery, most people imagine addiction—alcohol or drugs, right? But the struggles people face go far beyond that. As a recovery coach, you’re helping them find their way back to themselves, their dreams, and their potential.
What about the mother prescribed opioids after surgery, only to become addicted, watching her life and family unravel? Or the father who tells himself that this time, he’ll delete the gambling app for good—but can’t? What about the young adult stuck in a cycle of self-destructive behavior, aimlessly drifting through life? Or the person caught in a drama-loop of rescuing others, while their own health and happiness quietly slip away?
These are the faces, the lives, the people silently crying out for help. They’re all around us—people who feel trapped in patterns they don’t know how to break.
And that’s where you come in.
And here’s what’s truly amazing: Recovery coaching isn’t just for those with formal credentials. We’ve trained doctors, therapists, and counselors. But we’ve also trained parents, grandparents, veterans, fitness coaches, health coaches, spiritual leaders, and people who’ve walked their own path of addiction and recovery. People from every walk of life have become Recovery Coach Warriors.
Imagine the power of what you’ll do.
As a recovery coach, you won’t be shaming or blaming. You’ll be offering hope. You’ll show people that they aren’t powerless—that they have the strength to rise, to change, to live their most epic comeback story.
And the most amazing part? Oftentimes the first transformation happens in you, the coach.
