Bill Ward: From Wealth to Wellness Through Recovery

There's no better way in the world to get sober and stay sober than the directions that are contained in that big book of alcoholics anonymous.
Growing up as half First Nations in a predominantly white Christian school, Bill Ward faced an identity struggle that led him down a path of workaholism and marijuana use. Despite achieving financial success, Bill felt an inner emptiness that money couldn't fill. His quest for escape intensified, leading him to smoke crack, which eventually consumed his life. Bill's journey spiraled until he lost everything, hitting rock bottom before finding his way to recovery.
On 'The Addictive Pod', Bill opens up about his transformation through the twelve steps and Alcoholics Anonymous' big book. He credits these tools with saving his life and bringing him peace and happiness. Now, Bill dedicates his energy to spreading the recovery message through an online platform he's built. His story is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction, showing that it's possible to turn a life of despair into one of love and selflessness.
