Addiction Recovery

‘Sweat with Pride’ promoting addiction recovery in LGBTQ community

WATCH – DON’T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF –

June 11, 2021 – “Fitness helped me recover from drugs and alcohol,” Turnipseed. “I lost a little brother and my partner to addiction.”

Quinn said Gay & Sober have helped him recover from his loss.

“I have had these demons too,” Quinn said. 

The duo said the “Sweat with Pride” fundraiser will be a fitness expo with booths and a raffle, but there will also be information on recovery support.

One thing both men said they have faced is the fear of being gay at the gym, and they want to help others feel welcome.
