In this episode, Joanna sits down with Neill Timmons, CEO and founder of Arch to Freedom, an extended care recovery program supporting individuals with substance use and mental health disorders. But Neill’s path to leading a program that helps others rebuild their lives was anything but straightforward. After being asked to leave multiple schools, struggling with addiction during college, and eventually facing felony drug charges, Neill found himself at a turning point that would ultimately lead him toward recovery. One of the most pivotal moments came when his father set a firm boundary that forced Neill to confront the consequences of his choices. That experience became a powerful lesson about the role of accountability, support, and tough love in recovery. Today, Neill uses his lived experience to guide the work he does with young adults and families navigating similar challenges. In this conversation, he shares how boundaries can change the trajectory of a life, why enabling often keeps people stuck, and how recovery can become the foundation for building a life of purpose and impact.Neill’s Resources:Website: Arch to FreedomInstagram: @archtofreedomFacebook: Arch to FreedomLinkedIn: Arch to FreedomLinkedIn: Neill TimmonsWebsite: PIVOTPointConnect with Joanna Lilley Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail:
