It just shows to Goya that it is never too late to crawl out of your dark pit and find the sunshine. It works if you work it, a truism.
Ever wondered what it takes to truly start over? Michael Dixon's story is one for the books. After losing everything to alcoholism—family, friends, and financial stability—Michael found himself at the lowest point of his life. But his journey didn't end there. In this heartfelt episode of the 'Addictionaide' podcast, Michael opens up about his path to recovery and what true sobriety means to him. Spoiler: It's more than just putting down the bottle.
Michael recounts the day he was released from a physical therapy hospital, where he had been after losing his ability to walk. Instead of going home, he headed straight to an AA meeting. It was here, by what he calls the grace of God, that he found a community and the support he desperately needed. He speaks candidly about learning to accept his powerlessness over alcohol and observing life without judgment—a mindset that has been crucial in his recovery.
For anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Michael's story is a beacon of hope. It underscores the importance of community support and the realization that it's never too late to start anew. This episode isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding the strength to rebuild your life from the ground up. So if you're looking for a story that proves recovery is possible, tune in and let Michael's journey inspire you.
