The Game Plan of Life with AIIA Athletic Director, Marissa Robinson
On this week's podcast, we hear from our own Athletic Director, Marissa Robinson, who was recently a guest on the Staying Fit ODAAT podcast with Miguel Reyes (Miggs). Listen as she describes her own upbringing, how recreation played a significant role in her life, and how she was instrumental in assisting Coach Blu to step out of the darkness and into the light. Marissa shares some of her problematic behaviors and codependency issues in her past and how therapy and counseling helped her address them.
The very foundation of the recreational aspects of this team come directly from Marissa and you definitely gain more understanding as to why recreation plays such a significant role in recovery from drugs and alcohol, overcoming addictions of any kind as well as strengthening relationships from within.

Recreational Therapy
Coach Blu interviews our very own Athletic Director, Marissa Robinson who is a Certified Therapeutic Recreation Specialist. Recreation therapy utilizes different types of activities and recreation to help meet the psychological, mental, physical, and emotional needs of individuals who struggle with addiction, mental health, trauma, and more to develop skills for daily living. Marissa uses recreation as a tool for recovery. Listen to learn why recreation is so important in your own recovery. Addict to Athlete believes that an active role in sober recreational activities leads to a fuller and more rewarding life. It is time to create your life again, to give new life, and freshness by recreating. We hope to help individuals and families not only recreate but to re-create their lives.
