Rise. Recover. Thrive.: How I Got Strong, Got Sober, and Built a Movement of Hope

As seen on the Today show and The Kelly Clarkson Show In his “memoir with a mission,” Scott Strode shares his extraordinary journey from addiction to founding The Phoenix, a national sober active community that has empowered more than half a million people to thrive in sobriety. Scott Strode drank his first beer at 11 years old. By 15, he was using cocaine. By his early 20s, he had spiraled into the bleakest nights of his addiction—alone in a dark alley, too drunk to light a crack pipe. Then came a series of life-changing outdoor adventures—including competing in Ironman triathlons and climbing in the Himalayas—leading to a decade of profound personal growth. By the summer of 2006, Scott had nearly ten years of sobriety and a vision for revolutionizing addiction recovery. What inspired his dramatic self-transformation? It began with a mindset shift. Instead of defining himself first by his addiction, he began embracing his inherent strength and potential. He also employed practical principles like his 5:00 a.m. rule: instead of staying out partying until 5:00 a.m., he worked to surround himself with people who regularly got up at 5:00 a.m. to share in meaningful adventures, exercise, and get stronger. These practices and principles formed the heart of The Phoenix’s empowerment approach to recovery and led Scott to lasting sobriety, marriage, fatherhood, and a long-term purpose. More than a memoir, Rise. Recover. Thrive. is a pathway to hope for millions of people—and their loved ones—who are struggling with addiction. A portion of the proceeds from sales of this book will go to support The Phoenix.
