From Addiction to Impact: Scott Strode on Recovery, Resilience & The Phoenix

At just 11 years old, Scott Strode had his first drink—and it marked the beginning of a battle with addiction that would last into adulthood. But through climbing, community, and rediscovering his self-worth, Scott found a new path forward—one that would eventually help hundreds of thousands do the same.

In this powerful episode, host David From sits down with Scott Strode, founder of The Phoenix and author of Rise, Recover, Thrive, to talk about his journey from addiction to purpose. Scott shares the pain of a difficult childhood, the moment he hit rock bottom, and how an ice climbing class changed the course of his life. That transformation sparked a movement—The Phoenix—which now provides a sober, active community for nearly a million people across the country.

Learn how physical challenge, peer support, and personal dignity are fueling recovery in communities nationwide—and how you can be part of the solution.
