Preston King's Path: From Addiction to Advocacy

So really trusting the process and leaning into it, it's scary. So, absolutely, there's hope in that, just like trust in the process, that if you lean into that and feel those emotions- I mean even just hours, you know, don't, don't use Today, tomorrow, readdress it.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn a life around from the depths of addiction? Preston King shares his incredible journey on this episode of the Illuminate Recovery Podcast, hosted by Curt Neider and Shelley Mangum. Preston opens up about his struggles with addiction and the harsh reality of getting lost in the jail system. He talks candidly about how being held accountable by the drug court system became a turning point in his life.
Realizing that half-hearted efforts yield half-hearted results, Preston committed fully to his recovery, celebrating mini-successes like securing an apartment, getting a job, and learning vital life lessons along the way. Preston's story is one of grit and gratitude. He discusses the emotional rollercoaster of sobriety and how leaning into his emotions, even when it was terrifying, helped him grow stronger.
His work with Underdogg Marketing is a testament to his dedication to helping others in recovery find job opportunities and rebuild their lives. This episode is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, and with perseverance and trust in the process, anyone can make a meaningful impact on their own life and the lives of others.
If you're looking for a story that combines raw honesty with hope and practical advice, Preston King's journey is one you won't want to miss.
