Rebuilding from Rock Bottom: Addiction Recovery, Mindset & Healing with Trent Carter

In this deeply impactful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we explore the truth about addiction and what real recovery looks like with Trent Carter—founder of Renew Health, nurse practitioner, entrepreneur, and author of The Recovery Tool Belt. From his early days in trauma ICU to building one of New Mexico's most respected recovery clinics, Trent breaks down how recovery is not just about detox or willpower—it’s about mindset, tools, support, and self-leadership.

We talk about what the healthcare system often misses, how families can better support loved ones in addiction, and what it truly takes to break free from relapses and fear. If you’ve ever struggled, supported someone through addiction, or want to understand the path to lasting change, this episode is a must-listen.

ABOUT THE GUEST

Trent Carter is the founder of Renew Health, a leading addiction recovery center based in New Mexico. He is a nurse practitioner, podcast host, and author of The Recovery Tool Belt. From a small-town Texas upbringing to nationwide impact, Trent brings a powerful, practical, and compassionate approach to addiction recovery and holistic healing.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

• Mindset is foundational: Whether it’s recovery, entrepreneurship, or healing a relationship—your mindset sets the tone for everything. Trent emphasizes that lasting transformation begins with a clear, positive, and resilient mindset.

• Addiction recovery isn’t one-size-fits-all: You must meet people where they are. Individualized strategies—not cookie-cutter programs—lead to better outcomes.

• Barriers to healing are real but surmountable: Fear of detox, stigma, past failures, or lack of resources often keep people from seeking help. Renew Health tackles this with flexible, safe detox programs and real-world strategies.

• Action trumps intention: Thinking about recovery is a start, but real change happens through consistent action, especially on the hard days.

• Healing is not just clinical—it’s holistic: Hobbies, habits, routines, and purpose-driven living play a major role in maintaining sobriety and self-worth.

• There are tools for everyone: Whether you're a loved one, clinician, or someone in recovery, The Recovery Tool Belt is designed for practical, real-world use with strategies, resources, and frameworks to support sustainable change.
