The Power of Showing Up
In this powerful episode of Dopenly Honest, Zavian sits down with Andre Quincy, a man whose life and recovery have impacted countless people in our community.
With a clean date of February 17, 1998, Andre shares his journey from a young man just trying to fit in, to the depths of addiction, and finally to a life rebuilt through honesty, surrender, and service. Andre speaks openly about how addiction took control of his thinking, his relationships, and his sense of self, and how working a program one day at a time gave him a way back.
This conversation is about more than “putting the drugs down.” Andre talks about what it really means to recover: working the steps, showing up for family, serving others, staying consistent, and learning how to live life on life’s terms. From taking meetings into the jail, to rebuilding trust, to staying clean through loss. Andre’s story is a living example that long-term recovery is possible.
Whether you’re new to recovery, have years clean, or are still on the fence, this episode is full of honesty, wisdom, and hope for anyone who is still-suffering. Because as Andre reminds us: as long as there’s hope, there’s a chance.
