Show Notes
Jason Howell, executive director of SoberHood, is a self-defined social entrepreneur. A simple definition of the term comes from the Schwab Foundation for Social Entrepreneurship: the social entrepreneur is one who "achieves large scale, systemic and sustainable social change through a new invention, a different approach, a more rigorous application of known technologies or strategies, or a combination of these."
If this implies a willingness to challenge orthodoxy as well as wear several different hats, Jason Howell fits the bill. In this episode of the podcast, Howell talks about his journey of recovery from substance use, and his recent successes at using recovery principles as pillars for creative, organized enterprises that make a difference in people's lives.
