Peter O. Estevez: From Early Struggles to Lasting Sobriety

I had to shift my mindset to believe that I don't even think about the drink.
Peter O. Estevez's journey is a compelling tale of resilience and transformation. Growing up in poverty as one of thirteen children, Peter found himself turning to alcohol at an early age. Imagine being just 12 years old, sitting in your mom's closet with a six-pack of beer. Despite these early struggles, Peter climbed the ladder of success in real estate, becoming a millionaire by the age of 25. But his achievements were constantly overshadowed by his battle with alcohol.
He had the money, the house, and the cars, but happiness remained elusive. The turning point came after a series of embarrassing incidents in front of his business partners and some much-needed encouragement from his therapist. Peter decided it was time to put his sobriety first. Now, with over 20 years of sobriety under his belt, he shares his story on 'Sober Nation FM'.
In this episode, Peter talks about the intersection of recovery and entrepreneurship, the importance of trying different approaches in recovery, and how personal development has been key to his lasting sobriety. Listeners will find Peter's story both relatable and inspiring, especially those who have experienced similar struggles or know someone who has. The episode also touches on how the COVID-19 pandemic has impacted the sober community, making it a timely listen for anyone navigating these challenging times.
Whether you're on your own path to recovery or supporting someone who is, Peter's insights offer valuable lessons and hope.
