Clancy Imislund: From Skid Row to Recovery Advocate
I want this show to show up at the top, not for money, not for prestige, not for power, really, only for one reason, and that's to help, to help the alcoholics that are out there lost, lonely and afraid, like I was, until I said the alcoholics prayer, the drunks prayer, and I said God help me.
What happens when a life hits rock bottom and then finds its way to the pinnacle of recovery? In this gripping episode of 'Sober Shares', Michael Q sits down with Clancy Imislund, a man who has seen the darkest depths of addiction and emerged as a beacon of hope for many. Clancy's journey began with a heartfelt promise to his son, which led him to Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and a new lease on life.
His story is one of transformation, from struggling with alcohol to becoming a sponsor for Hollywood celebrities and those living on the streets alike.
