I hope that it's lighting a path for others that still might be suffering and in addiction and to see that we do turn it around and we become incredible human beings, giving back and in ways that are just beautiful, just beautiful.
Imagine leading a double life where on the outside, everything looks perfect, but inside, you're fighting a secret battle. That's exactly what former pro baseball player Corey Harrington faced. In this eye-opening episode of the Soberoso podcast, host Dora Gosselin chats with Corey about his decade-long struggle with opioid addiction, which started from prescribed medication for a shoulder injury. Despite his successful sports career, Corey was silently grappling with addiction, unable to confide in anyone close to him.
He opens up about the moment he couldn't face himself in the mirror anymore, a glaring sign that things had spiraled out of control. Corey reveals how he finally found the courage to tell his wife and brother about his addiction, leading him to seek the help he desperately needed. Through hard conversations and unwavering support, he embarked on a journey of recovery. Corey's story isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about reclaiming his life and finding a new purpose.
He talks about the daily promises he makes to himself to stay accountable and how sobriety has enabled him to give back to his community. This episode is a testament to the strength it takes to admit you need help and the transformative power of recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Corey's journey offers hope and encouragement.
