When you are recovering from drug and alcohol addiction, your journey matters. Chad Johnson, the son of former football coach Jimmy Johnson, knows this firsthand. He fought a 20-year battle with substance abuse before turning his life around and dedicating himself to helping others.

The Darkest Days
For most people, growing up in an upscale neighborhood in Dallas and being a successful stockbroker would be a great life. What, then, would induce someone to abandon that job, desert family members, and take up quarters in the musty interior of a parked car in Tampa? The answer: substance abuse.
“The first and last thing on my mind each day was where I’d get my next drink or anything that would change the way I feel,” said Chad Johnson, now 48 and living comfortably in St. Petersburg. “Nothing else mattered.”
A New Beginning: Tranquil Shores
Today, Johnson runs Tranquil Shores addiction recovery center near St. Petersburg, which specializes in an individualized approach to recovery.

“About a decade ago I set out to start a treatment facility that could address all aspects of someone’s substance abuse and mental health issues,” said Johnson, who applied his experience in finance to build a solid business base. From that beginning, Tranquil Shores has grown into a 24-bed facility with numerous employees.

Life After Recovery
Life is so much better after recovery. I'm in better spirits. I can conquer almost anything on my own. Recovery is about the beginning of a new life and not about dwelling on what you might have done in the past. The people cared about me and the people took me under their wing. We found at Tranquil Shores people who were totally dedicated to treating and healing the whole person, physically, emotionally and spiritually. I had this act going like I was this great student and daughter and I was absolutely dying inside.
