Embracing Sobriety: Life Beyond Addiction with Tom and Ben

There are situations in my life which I cannot control, which I am powerless over, that I just kind of have to accept.
Ever thought about what life could look like without alcohol or drugs? In this episode of Real Recovery Talk, hosts Tom Conrad and Ben tackle the big question of how to adjust to a 'normal' life after addiction. Drawing from their own experiences as AA graduates, they share the challenges and triumphs of walking the path to sobriety. Tom emphasizes the importance of the 12-step program in building a spiritual foundation that has been crucial to his own recovery.
But he also acknowledges that there are many routes to sobriety, encouraging listeners to find a program that resonates with them. Whether it's the 12 steps or another method, the goal remains the same: a happier, healthier life free from addiction. Tom and Ben discuss the promises outlined in AA's section 83, like finding new freedom and happiness, which can mean different things for different people.
They also dive into overcoming fear, self-pity, and the role of loved ones in the recovery process. Sobriety isn't easy, but as Tom and Ben show, it's definitely worth it. Tune in for an episode filled with practical advice, heartfelt stories, and a dose of hope.
