Chapter 3 Stigma began as an answer to one question: What would you tell someone who is struggling with addiction right now? It is the original recovery podcast from Kyle Layne, author of the forthcoming memoir Chasing Control. Through honest conversations about addiction, faith, family, loss, sobriety, and repair, the show explores what it means to stop hiding, tell the truth, and become trustworthy again. The work continues through More Than Capable, where recovery becomes a broader practice of faith, discipline, community, and rebuilding a life that can hold the truth.

It had to become something I was willing to choose for myself. </p><p>The full conversation is now available on <a href="https://open.spotify.com/show/0P1UsM6pQvYwgjAKpFqKoI?si=accc854056c24bfa" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><strong>More Than Capable</strong></a>, where ever you listen to podcasts, where Alyssa and I reflect on marriage, trust, Chapter 8 of Alcoholics Anonymous, three years sober, and what recovery has required from both of us.</p><p><strong>Listen to the full episode on More Than Capable on your listening platform of choice.</strong></p><p><a href="morethancapable.life" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"><strong>Follow More Than Capable on Substack</strong></a></p>

Its purpose was always clarity, accessibility, and hope. Short, honest episodes meant to meet someone in the depths of despair and remind them they weren’t alone.</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Over time, however, the conversation expanded beyond addiction itself. Recovery didn’t end the work — it revealed it.</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Together, Alyssa and I reflect on:</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Why growth sometimes requires letting go of what once served you</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">The hidden work of recovery that begins after sobriety</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">How identity, self-belief, and discipline are rebuilt in small, unglamorous steps</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">The tension between accepting who you are and knowing there’s more ahead</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">And why community — not motivation — is what carries people forward</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Chapter 3 Stigma will remain available as a resource for those in early recovery and for loved ones seeking understanding. There will be a small number of final episodes released here to thoughtfully close this chapter, with a focus on relationships, family, and life after recovery begins.</p><p data-rte-preserve-empty="true" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">This isn’t an ending.
