Last month, In the Rooms and Seeking Integrity Treatment Centers presented an online Super Saturday Recovery Summit. The event was an overwhelming success, with three experts on recovery discussing and answering questions on topics related to both early and longer-term sobriety and healing. Approximately 500 people attended each of the three sessions. In response, we are making the recovery summit a monthly event, with our next summit set for Saturday, May 16.
Presenters at this month’s Super Saturday Recovery Summit include Dr. David Fawcett, Rachel Levy, and Lulu Cook.

He is currently writing a more general book about substance/sex behaviors, looking at the drug/sex pairing of all substances (not just meth) with all populations (not just gay men). In his Super Saturday Recovery Summit presentation, Dr. Fawcett will share his expertise on paired substance/sex addiction, discussing and answering questions about the many ways chemsex behaviors manifest.

Is there a way to watch the ones I missed?
I didn’t account for the time difference and missed the first 2!
Loved the nutrition one though! I learned so much and Lulu is an engaging speaker 🙂
Looking forward to the summit.
