Brian P's Journey: From Bank Robber to Sober Advocate

I was an alcoholic doing what the program has to do, and I've always had sponsors who were involved in service. They got a home group.
What happens when a life of crime intersects with the path to recovery? In this gripping episode of 'Sober Speak', Brian P opens up about his tumultuous journey from bank robberies to redemption. Battling severe addiction, Brian turned to bank robbery to support his habits, landing him in prison multiple times. His story takes a remarkable turn when he encounters the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA).
With the grace and support of fellow alcoholics, Brian finds sobriety and a renewed sense of purpose. Now, he dedicates his life to helping prisoners navigate their own recovery journeys, embodying the AA principle that to keep what you have, you must give it away. Brian's tale is a powerful reminder of the potential for change and the importance of community support in the recovery process.
Tune in to hear his inspiring story and learn how service work can be a cornerstone of lasting sobriety.
