Cory's Path: From Prison Walls to a Life Reclaimed
What I'm hoping that comes from my story is to help provide hope that people that have made bad decisions in their life, or wrong decisions or whatever, can come to the realization that it's not over.
Picture this: a young boy grappling with self-esteem issues, a turbulent family life marred by substance abuse, and relentless bullying at school. That's Cory's early life in a nutshell. Fast forward a few years, and his struggles with addiction led him to multiple incarcerations. But Cory's story doesn't end behind bars; it's where his journey to recovery truly begins.
In this episode of 'i am somebody', Cory opens up about his transformative experience of finding sobriety while in prison and the hurdles he faced upon re-entering society. He passionately talks about the vital role of peer support and accountability in maintaining sobriety, and how honesty became his cornerstone for overcoming addiction. Cory's narrative is a powerful reminder that no matter how deep the struggle, there's always a way out.
Tune in to hear how he turned his life around and now uses his story to inspire others facing similar battles.
