Brandon's Path to Sobriety: Acceptance and Beyond

Until I understood the causes and conditions of what drove me, I didn't understand what the difference between being abstinent and just not drinking and hanging in there was and actually having sobriety and that freedom that comes along with it.
What does it really mean to be sober? In this episode of The Sober Unicorn, Brandon dives deep into his personal journey to answer that question. He opens up about the crucial difference between simply abstaining from alcohol and achieving true sobriety. It's not just about putting down the bottle; it's about embracing a whole new way of life. Brandon talks candidly about the importance of acceptance—admitting he is an alcoholic was one thing, but truly accepting it was another.
He also explores the distinction between compliance and surrender, sharing how genuine surrender has transformed his recovery. The conversation takes a spiritual turn as Brandon discusses the role of faith in his journey, revealing how it has been a cornerstone of his spiritual awakening. His story is filled with raw honesty and offers a beacon of hope for anyone on their own path to sobriety.
Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Brandon's insights provide valuable lessons and inspiration.
