Tom, drawing from his own experiences, shares why helping others isn't just a nice thing to do—it's a lifeline for those in recovery.
Whether it's giving someone a lift to a meeting, greeting newcomers, or setting up chairs, these acts of service build more than just community spirit. They create a sense of purpose and accountability that can be pivotal for long-term sobriety.

So, if you’re in recovery or supporting someone who is, this episode is a must-listen. It’s packed with insights that show how giving back can actually be one of the best ways to help yourself.
