Jim's Path to Sobriety: The Power of Support and Self-Awareness

So finally, my friends kept inviting me out and I kept telling: no, I'm good, I'm good. And they're like: well, just don't drink as much. But when you drive, like next time you drive, I don't know if y'all have a lot of billboards in your town. You do not realize how many of them are surrounding about alcohol.
Ever wondered how a solid support system can change your life? In this episode of 'The Sober Unicorn', Jim, a recovering alcoholic, opens up about his journey to sobriety. Growing up surrounded by alcohol, Jim faced not only addiction but also a private struggle with pornography. Through therapy and 12-step programs, he found a way to heal and embrace his queer identity in a healthier manner.
Jim highlights the importance of having a reliable inner circle, whether you're just starting your sobriety journey or are well into it. He also talks about the financial perks of living sober and the crucial role of making amends with oneself. Mindfulness and self-awareness come up as key elements in his recovery process. Jim's story is a testament to the power of community and personal growth.
Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and remember, as Jim says, 'You're not alone'.
