In this episode of No Permission Necessary, Molly Bierman and Jill Griffin talk with Brad Sorte, a behavioral health CEO and former clinical social worker, about the realities of addiction treatment and mental health leadership.
Brad shares his journey from clinician to executive and opens up about his own experience with burnout—checking himself into a hospital and stepping away from his CEO role to pursue more innovative approaches to care.
They dive into the challenges facing the industry today: rigid treatment models, stigma, accessibility, and the importance of curiosity and compassion in both leadership and recovery.
Brad’s unique lens as a clinician and business leader offers a refreshing, deeply human perspective on how we can transform behavioral health for the better.
