Ricky's Road to Sobriety: Smart Recovery and CBT Insights

I don't blame the pandemic and I don't blame the service industry, for you know the path that my life took, but I don't think that either of them helped either.
Ever wondered how different tools can aid in the journey to sobriety? In this episode of 'The Sober Unicorn', host Holden S sits down with Ricky, an alcoholic who found his way to sobriety through Smart Recovery and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). Ricky shares the ups and downs of his path, from the challenges posed by the pandemic and working in the service industry to the supportive fellowship he discovered in recovery.
Ricky also opens up about the unique hurdles he faced as an atheist trying to find a higher power, a common theme in many recovery programs. His story highlights the importance of authentic friendships formed during recovery, which have become some of the most meaningful relationships in his life. But it's not all serious talk. Ricky gives listeners a sneak peek into his newly released podcast, 'Rick or Treat', which dives into everything horror.
It's a fascinating blend of sobriety and spookiness that adds a unique twist to his recovery story. Whether you're navigating your own journey to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Ricky's story offers valuable insights and a touch of humor. Tune in for an episode that's both inspiring and entertaining, reminding us all that recovery is possible with the right tools and support.
