Sept. 30, 2025 – “Everybody knows somebody in recovery, but they don’t know it a lot of times because we don’t talk about it.”
On top of overcoming addiction– people in recovery also overcome a stigma. And Kevin McLaughlin is someone who wants to change that. “I’m a person in long term recovery, which means for me, 19 years with no drugs or alcohol…And over time, I’ve had people look at me. So, Kevin, what are you in this for? Like, you’re not even in recovery. And I say, well, I’m kind of glad that you think that about me, because I don’t I don’t project this idea of that you have of what a person and recovery is. But many people don’t know that. So I want to undo that. I want to say it’s okay to talk about it,” says McLaughlin.
And what better way to get people talking– Than over a meal.
