About Ryan Barbara
I am a resilient individual on a journey of recovery from addiction, fueled by a deep passion for mental health, self-development, and helping others. Life has taught me the value of perseverance and growth, and I’m committed to sharing these lessons with the world.
My interests are as diverse as my experiences. I find solace in the gym, where the pursuit of fitness and well-being resonates deeply with me. Books are my constant companions, offering endless opportunities to expand my horizons. I’m also an avid consumer of podcasts, as they provide a unique window into the thoughts and stories of people from all walks of life.
Advocating for mental health is close to my heart. I believe that open conversations about mental well-being can break down stigmas and create a more empathetic world. Through my advocacy work, I strive to make a positive impact on the lives of those who may be struggling.
Beyond my passion for mental health, I’m captivated by the world of online business. The potential to create, innovate, and connect in the digital realm excites me. I see it as another avenue to empower individuals and make a meaningful difference.
In all aspects of my life, whether it’s promoting mental health, pursuing fitness goals in the gym, or delving into a good book, my purpose remains the same: to uplift and inspire others on their own journeys of self-discovery and personal growth.
Here's Ryan's most recent post on Malta Daily in Maltese, marking his five-year milestone of sobriety. He continues his mission to advocate for addiction awareness and mental health support. Malta Daily, recognized as one of the top social portals in Malta, hosted this significant celebration.
Ryan appeared as a guest on the renowned Jon Mallia Podcast in Malta, bravely sharing his personal journey and battles with addiction. His aim was to raise awareness about this issue. Following the podcast release, Ryan was contacted by numerous individuals who found inspiration in his story and were motivated to seek help for their own struggles with addiction.
Ryan teamed up with Lovin Malta, a highly reputable social portal in Malta, to commemorate his four years of clean and sober living. Building on the success of his previous public acknowledgment two years earlier, he once more took the opportunity to advocate for addiction awareness. Notably, Ryan has now begun working at the same rehab center where he underwent his own recovery journey. This firsthand experience empowers him to speak from a more profound and insightful perspective, drawing from his personal encounters with addiction and rehabilitation.
Ryan joined forces with "The People of Malta," a platform dedicated to sharing individuals' stories. This collaboration marked his initial public sharing of his journey after two years of sobriety from drugs and alcohol. The response from the audience was incredibly positive, resonating deeply with many. In fact, his story served as an inspiration for others, leading some to take the courageous step of entering rehab after finding motivation through Ryan's experience.
