Adventure is not optional. It is a spiritual calling. Doug Nielsen reminds us that without adventure, life shrinks into survival mode. Adventure can be physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual, but it must stretch you and bring your heart alive. When you pair that with pursuing the relationships that matter most, something begins to wake up inside you.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Doug invites listeners to rediscover adventure, connection, and the identity they were created to live from.

Doug Nielsen asks a simple but confronting question. Are you living fully alive, or just surviving? He shares how addiction, distraction, and pain slowly pull us away from the image God created us to live in. The good news is this. At any moment, we can return to the heart of who we really are. Recovery is not about fixing yourself. It is about coming home to your true identity.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Doug and Jason explore what it means to reclaim agency, faith, and purpose when numb is no longer working.

Jason Coombs shares a truth he never takes lightly. There are many reasons he should not be alive. Overdoses, accidents, and choices that could have ended everything. Yet somehow he is still here. He does not pretend to know why. What he does know is that his life now belongs to sharing hope and reminding others that full change of heart is possible.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Jason reflects on survival, purpose, and why recovery is about more than just staying sober.

This Executive Order (January 29, 2026) frames addiction as a chronic, treatable disease and calls out how many people still never get care.

It cites 48.4 million Americans living with addiction, and points to 40.7 million adults in 2024 who didn’t get treatment, with 95.6% not even realizing they needed it.

The initiative is designed to coordinate the federal response across healthcare, criminal justice, workforce, education, housing, and social services instead of keeping everything in silos.

It also directs agencies to better align programs and grants toward prevention, treatment, and long-term recovery support, and to work with states, tribes, local leaders, community groups, and faith-based organizations.

As someone in long-term recovery, and as a founder in behavioral health, that coordination piece matters.

Because access to care is not just a treatment bed.

It’s stable housing, a job pathway, family support, and recovery community that lasts past discharge.

Praise God for a little hope after a long uncertain period for recovery support in this country.

And thank you to Bobby Kennedy and Kathryn Burgum for stepping into this with both authority and lived experience.” Jason Coombs Founder

Real love is not perfect. It is honest. Duane Crabtree shares how his marriage became strong not by hiding brokenness, but by naming it. From the very beginning, he and his wife chose vulnerability, trust, and emotional intimacy over performance. That foundation changed everything.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Duane reflects on how openness and honesty created a marriage that could hold both beauty and mess.

Jason Coombs shares why Warrior Heart Bootcamp was exactly what he needed at a time when he felt spiritually flat and worn down. It is not therapy and it is not a traditional retreat. It is an experience designed to help men reconnect with their hearts, their faith, and their purpose. Jason had no idea when he attended that life was about to ask even more of him.

In this episode of Get Unhooked, Jason reflects on how this work prepared him for the season that followed, including walking with his wife through her cancer diagnosis.

Many men learn how to pose long before they learn how to heal. The mask helps us survive, but it eventually keeps us stuck. Duane Crabtree shares how redemption begins when we stop hiding, allow ourselves to feel the wounds underneath, and bring that brokenness into the light. That is where wholeness starts.

In this episode of Get Unhooked with Jason Coombs, Jason and Duane explore how removing the pose opens the door to healing, identity, and deeper connection with God and others.
