Jordan C's Nine-Year Sobriety Journey: A Tale of Faith, Forgiveness, and Finding Purpose

I mean you might think that you're smart at, but I wasn't smart at. When you're in four and five, you're doing the work and you're digesting some big chunks of truth about yourself.
What does it take to stay sober for nine years? Jordan C shares his incredible journey in this episode of 'Sober Shares'. His story is a raw and honest look at the highs and lows of addiction recovery. From losing jobs and relationships to finding a new sense of purpose, Jordan's experiences are both heart-wrenching and inspiring. One of the standout moments in his tale is his work with steps four and five of the AA program.
These steps helped him confront the truth about his addiction and begin the process of healing. He emphasizes the crucial role of having a sponsor and the unwavering support of the AA community in his recovery. Religion and spirituality also play a pivotal role in Jordan's story. Reconnecting with his childhood faith and discovering a higher power that resonated with him provided a foundation for his sobriety.
He speaks candidly about the power of making amends and seeking forgiveness, not just from others but from himself. The paradoxes within the AA program—like surrendering to win and finding strength through service—are also explored in depth. Jordan's journey illustrates how these seemingly contradictory ideas are essential to recovery. His story is a testament to the transformative power of sobriety and serves as a beacon of hope for anyone struggling with addiction.
Tune in to hear how Jordan turned his life around and found meaning through service, faith, and community.
