Bret Tatefield: From Addiction to Empowerment

If anybody, if, if I can do this, I'm telling you you can anybody, because I was as low as I could have gone in my life Two Or Three Days before I made that call and truly went after the comeback.
Ever wondered how someone can turn their life around after years of battling addiction? This episode of IAMACOMEBACK features a raw and honest conversation between host Mark Jennison and guest Bret Tatefield. Bret, who grew up in Northern Minnesota and ran hunting and fishing resorts in Ontario, shares his tumultuous journey with alcohol. Despite his success, his drinking habit was a constant hurdle, leading him to moments of deep self-loathing and regret.
Imagine calling yourself a piece of s*** multiple times a day or having to rely on a pilot to deposit your money because you couldn’t trust yourself. That was Bret’s reality. But things took a turn when he joined the Comeback Council program. With the support of peers and a newfound focus on self-development and goal-setting, Bret managed to reclaim control over his life. He improved his financial responsibility, mended family relationships, and discovered his true potential.
Mark and Bret’s chat isn’t just inspiring; it’s a testament to the power of resilience and community. If you’re looking for a story that proves anyone can overcome addiction with the right mindset and support, this episode is for you.
