Allan Kehler: From Darkness to Light - A Journey of Resilience

For so many of us, from where we were to where we are- and I'm not saying life is easy because I find it really really hard, but the difference is we have a set of tools now.
Imagine growing up in a tight-knit Mennonite community where alcohol was absent, but trauma was not. Allan Kehler's childhood was marred by sexual abuse, a shadow that followed him into adulthood, leading to battles with mental health and addiction. In this compelling episode of 'Hard Knox Talks: Sober Stories. Real Talk.', Allan opens up about his tumultuous journey and the pivotal moments that helped him reclaim his life.
Through his twenties, Allan faced one challenge after another, grappling with mental health issues and addiction. He found himself on 12 different kinds of medication, trying to find stability in a chaotic world. But Allan's story is not just about struggle; it's about triumph. Today, he's an international keynote speaker, best-selling author, and a passionate advocate for mental health.
Allan shares the tools and connections that helped him overcome his darkest days, emphasizing the importance of hope and community in recovery. His message is clear: trauma affects us all, but we don't have to face it alone. We were born to survive, and together, we can find the strength to heal. Tune in to hear Allan's inspiring story and learn how resilience and connection can light the way out of the darkest times.
