Wade Muhlhauser: Plugged INTO Recovery | The Hopeaholics Podcast

Wade Muhlhauser: Plugged INTO Recovery | The Hopeaholics Podcast In this gripping episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, the CEO of Plugged In Recovery, Wade Muhlhauser, shares his remarkable journey from homelessness and a 20-year struggle with opioid addiction to founding a network of 14 sober living homes and a treatment center in Arizona. Wade candidly discusses his chaotic childhood in foster care, shaped by his father’s meth addiction, and his own spiral into alcoholism and OxyContin dependency, driven by a delusion that painkillers boosted his performance, inspired by artists like Lil Wayne. He reflects on multiple relapses, the transformative power of faith, and how divine timing and key relationships fueled the creation of Plugged In Recovery. Now working alongside his redeemed father, Wade’s story underscores the universal potential for recovery, the need for extended treatment stays, and his vision to spark a ripple effect in the recovery community, making this episode a powerful ode to resilience and redemption. #TheHopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarie Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record’, exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics  Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.
