My life Today is beyond anything I could have imagined. Anyone can find recovery and you don't have to hit rock bottom to get there.
Imagine getting two DUIs before even finishing high school. Bret Hoffman did, and his life spiraled into chaos as he bounced between states, leaving a trail of hurt in his wake. But Bret's story isn't just about the lows; it's about the incredible highs that come with recovery. In this episode of Recovery Survey, Bret opens up about his journey to sobriety, which began at just 23 years old.
Now, with nearly eight years of sobriety under his belt, Bret's message is clear: you don't have to hit rock bottom to turn your life around. After a major geographical move and a pivotal hospital stay, Bret found himself at a crossroads. He chose to enter a sober house and embrace the structured life offered by a-step programs and fellowships. This decision marked the beginning of his transformation.
Bret discusses how he rebuilt relationships and overcame the toxic mentality of 'if you had my life, you'd drink and drug too'. He carries the memories and pain of his past as a guiding force, helping him navigate his new life. Today, Bret's life is beyond anything he could have imagined during his darkest days. His story is a testament to the power of recovery and the importance of finding a design for living that works.
Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Bret's journey offers hope and inspiration. Tune in to hear his powerful story and discover that recovery is within reach for everyone.
