Adam's Journey: Rethinking the AA Model for Modern Times

One day at a time… It’s sometimes that simple.
Meet Adam, a man whose drinking career was brief but devastating. In this episode of 'Together S.O.B.E.R.', Adam opens up about his rapid descent into addiction and his inspiring rise from the ashes. With his life unraveling quickly, Adam made the brave decision to surrender and seek guidance. He clung to the mantra 'One day at a time', finding it sometimes really is that simple.
But Adam's story isn't just about hitting rock bottom; it's about discovering a fresh, modern take on the traditional AA Model. He talks about the power of finding a higher purpose and the importance of self-care and staying present. Adam's spiritual awakening wasn't an isolated event; it was a collective experience that reshaped his approach to sobriety. He doesn't shy away from discussing the ongoing challenges, like envy and fascination with drinking, that many in recovery face.
Yet, through it all, Adam remains grateful for his sobriety and the self-care practices that keep him grounded. His journey is a testament to the idea that recovery is not just about abstaining from alcohol but about embracing a new way of living. If you're looking for a story that combines raw honesty with practical wisdom, this episode is a must-listen.
