A Creative Spark in The Recovery Room
For over 40 years, I’ve felt that part of my life’s purpose is to “creatively communicate a message of healing and hope.”
That creativity has shown up in many forms—speaking, writing, singing, storytelling, acting, even graphic design. I’ve always been looking for new ways to weave art and communication together.
Since relaunching the Recovery Room podcast in July, I’ve been experimenting with fresh ways to bring those creative threads into each episode: on-the-street interviews, original songs, and audio sketches. The sketches, especially, have been a joy to write and produce—and I’m determined to keep getting better at them!
For instance, in the new episode “Some Bad Advice” (released yesterday), I included two short sketches:
- Two women in a coffee shop discussing a friend’s choice.
- A bedtime conversation between a husband, his wife… and the husband’s inner voice.
Beyond the sheer fun of creating these moments, my real hope is that they help listeners like you engage, reflect, and maybe even smile. And if they encourage or challenge you along the way—well, that’s the best reward of all.
Gratefully,
Tim Tedder
