#31: This week on Rise, Recover, Live, things get playful—and a little personal.
Liz and Bryce The Third go off the cuff in a rapid-fire Q&A that’s equal parts hilarious and heartfelt. From comfort foods and guilty pleasure shows to recovery myths and mantras, no question is off-limits.
Liz drops gems on what surprised her most about sobriety, what freedom really means now, and why recovery friendships hit different. Bryce shares the rituals that keep him grounded, the quote he lives by, and the planner that’s basically his ride-or-die.
It’s the kind of unfiltered connection recovery makes possible—deep, honest, and full of unexpected laughs. Tap in and get to know your hosts like never before.
