The Calix Society and Addiction Recovery

Episode • Jul 28 • 55m

This week on Talking Catholic, we explore a deeply personal and universal topic: addiction.

Whether it’s alcohol, drugs, food, media, pornography, or other compulsions, addiction touches countless lives — often disrupting health, relationships, and spiritual well-being.

Joining co-hosts Mike Walsh and Jen Mauro are two guests with firsthand experience in the healing journey: Jen Drees, a Calix Society facilitator at Church of the Incarnation in Mantua, and Jo Anne Farrell, Addictions Healing Services coordinator for Catholic Charities of South Jersey. Together, they discuss the upcoming faith-based Zoom retreat on August 2 — open to anyone impacted by addiction. Register here »

The episode also introduces listeners to the Calix Society (www.calixsociety.org), a Catholic recovery organization that helps individuals maintain sobriety through faith and a 12-step program.

Listen in for a compassionate, hope-filled conversation about recovery, spiritual support, and the path toward healing.
