When you see the light come on for a newcomer, there's honestly there's no more exhilarating feeling in the world than to see that happen, to see somebody get it.
Imagine battling the demons of addiction and depression while trying to maintain a successful career. That's the story of Jim McCord, a real estate coach with 16 years of sobriety, who shares his inspiring journey on this episode of 'Stigmatized'. Jim's path wasn't easy; it was marked by countless blackouts, deep-seated shame, and a near brush with suicide. Yet, through grit and community support, he found his way out of the darkness.
Professionally, Jim has been a real estate agent for over 25 years and authored the best-selling book 'A Revolution in Real Estate'. But behind his professional success was a man grappling with alcoholism and depression, nearly losing everything. Arrested for a DUI, Jim hit rock bottom and realized he needed help. His recovery journey was filled with moments of doubt and fear, but also with the joy of helping others find their own paths to sobriety.
Jim's story is a powerful testament to the human spirit's resilience and the critical role of community support in overcoming life's toughest challenges. Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and now inspires others to do the same.
