I gained more freedom and more freedom each day. It was kind of like this treadmill that I was on and just couldn't get off.
Imagine starting to drink in your early teens and watching your life spiral out of control for years. That's Ken R.'s story. In this episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast, Ken from Beulaville, NC, opens up about his chaotic journey with alcohol and how he eventually found peace through sobriety. Meeting his friend Luis L.
in the Navy gave him a glimpse of what a sober life could look like, but it took many more years before Ken embraced the change himself. Today, he lives a life filled with honesty and pride, thanks to the principles of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). The 12 steps offered him freedoms he never thought possible—freedom from the grip of alcohol and the freedom to live a dignified life.
He emphasizes that AA's program is all about free choice; nothing is mandated, which made it easier for him to accept and follow through. Ken also shares how sobriety has profoundly impacted his personal relationships, allowing him to be truthful and connect on a deeper level. He highlights the importance of spirituality and finding common ground with fellow alcoholics, which made him feel less isolated in his struggle.
Early sobriety wasn't easy, but Ken found solace in hobbies like surfing, which addiction had stolen from him. His story is a testament to the transformative power of recovery and serves as a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction. Tune in to hear Ken's inspiring journey from chaos to calm.
