We’re incredibly grateful to the team at Jaywalker Lodge for the warm welcome and inspiring tour of their program in beautiful Carbondale, Colorado.

Mike Lloyd from Sober Escorts, Inc. had the pleasure of spending time with the team, exploring their facilities, and even heading out for a hike through the stunning mountain landscape. A huge thank you to KC Gooding, Rachel Miller, and Geoff Shea for your time, hospitality, and dedication to creating a truly transformative experience for young men in recovery.

Jaywalker’s clinical programming, extended care, and integration of outdoor adventure, community connection, and family involvement left a lasting impression. It’s clear that this is a place of heart, healing, and purpose.

Thank you for all you do — we’re honored to stay connected and look forward to future collaboration.

Today we celebrate 21 years of sobriety for Rick Parrish — a true warrior, leader, and the driving force behind the work we do.

Rick’s journey is rooted in honesty, integrity, empathy, and compassion — the very principles that guide our mission at Sober Escorts, Inc.. He’s more than just a founder; he’s a teacher, a mentor, and often mistaken for a rockstar (though we know he's both). 🎸 😁

What sets Rick apart is his belief in connection over perfection — that we don’t have to know all the answers, and it’s okay to ask for help. His commitment to keeping care affordable, building meaningful professional relationships, and putting clients and families first is unwavering.

Rick reminds us daily that recovery is possible, and that “We Care - We’ve Been There.”

Congratulations, Rick 👏 — your leadership continues to inspire us all. Here's to 21 years and the lives you’ve touched along the way.

✨ “Helped me recharge my batteries.”
✨ “Great catching up.”

It’s moments like these — connection, camaraderie, and community — that remind us why we do what we do.

🎉 Huge congratulations to Mike Lloyd on 14 years of continuous sobriety!

And almost 12 of those years have been spent right here with us at Sober Escorts, Inc. — something we’re endlessly grateful for. 🙌

In truth, we didn’t bring Mike on until he had a little time under his belt… but once we did, we threw him straight into the deep end without ever checking if he could swim. 🏊‍♂️ Chaos, crisis, and complexity—he handled it all with steady professionalism, humility, and humor. You were exactly who we had been hoping for.

Twelve years later, we’re even more thrilled to have you as part of our team—and our family. 💙

Your dedication is unmatched. Every person you’ve trained, every professional you’ve worked alongside, every family you’ve helped, and every client you’ve supported feels the impact of your presence. You lead with quiet strength, true compassion, and an ability to bring levity exactly when it’s needed most. 😄

Even through the toughest times, including moments of loss and sorrow, you’ve walked with grace and authenticity. And just when we think we’re having a serious moment, you drop a ridiculous joke and remind us we’re all human. 💫

Mike, you’ve built the life you dreamed of—and earned every bit of it. We see you, we appreciate you, and we’re so proud to be on this journey with you.

Congratulations on 14 incredible years. Here's to many more. ❤️

We care. We’ve been there.
