Martin Parker's Journey: From Rock Bottom to Inspiring Others

A lot of it is, stop blaming other people for your problems.
Picture this: you’re in a car, upside down in a ditch, and you can’t remember how you got there. That was the wake-up call for Martin Parker, a single father diagnosed with Parkinson's at just 32. In this episode of 'Recovery Survey', Martin opens up about his battle with addiction and how that fateful day in 2015 became the turning point he desperately needed.
Struggling with heavy drinking to cope with his illness, Martin decided it was time to change his life for the better. He didn't just get sober; he launched the 'Keep It Steady' movement to help others facing similar battles. Martin shares how he hid his drinking from his daughter and the importance of building self-credibility. He also talks about finding hope through public speaking and why blaming others won't solve your problems.
Tune in to hear Martin’s incredible story of resilience and determination. His journey is a testament to the power of self-belief and the human spirit.
