Before Alcoholics Anonymous and other Twelve Step Programs, there was virtually no solution for alcoholism and drug addiction - no matter how hard the medical community tried. With an increase in reliance upon methods like "Relapse Prevention" from the medical community, and an ever-increasing relapse and overdose rate around the world - what if the new solution to the addiction crisis was once again found in the community of those who have suffered in addiction and alcoholism? Adam Gunton is the Founder of Recovered On Purpose, a nonprofit dedicated to helping those in recovery share their stories powerfully and help addicts recover. Adam Gunton is the bestselling author of “From Chains To Saved,” founder of Recovered On Purpose, and host of The Recovered On Purpose Show. After overcoming homelessness and serious drug addiction in 2017, Adam set out to help as many people overcome similar circumstances as possible. His mission is to equip and empower addicts in recovery. He teaches them to powerfully share their stories with the world and encourage other addicts to find hope through recovery. Recovered on Purpose also doubles as a relapse prevention program by adding incredible purpose, mission and passion to their lives in recovery. It is growing rapidly and the impact this movement is making is beyond anything one person could do alone. His most exciting accomplishments to this point are all the stories his students share and tell him of the addicts who have found recovery through his program.
