Welcome to Episode 30 of the Next Level Voices Series on Kultivation w/ Kevie!
In this powerful and eye-opening conversation, I sit down with Trent Carter, a nurse practitioner, board certified addiction specialist, author, and founder of Renew Health, to explore recovery, mental health, and what it means to answer your true calling.
Trent shares his journey from working in trauma ICUs to building an addiction recovery and mental health practice that now serves people across the entire state of New Mexico. He opens up about trusting his intuition, taking risks, and believing in the impact he was meant to make, even when the path forward felt uncertain.
We talk about the realities of addiction, the importance of treating mental health alongside substance use, and why recovery must be approached with compassion, structure, and hope. Trent also explains what inspired him to open his first clinic, how he expanded from one location to multiple practices, and why he wrote his book, The Recovery Tool Belt, to make healing tools accessible beyond clinical settings.
If you have been navigating burnout, questioning your purpose, or feeling called to make a bigger impact in your life or career, this episode will remind you that change is possible and meaningful work begins with clarity and courage.
