Miguel's Journey: From Addiction to Fitness and Sobriety

Sobriety has been a gift that I can share with those around me who know the old version of me. I'd be lying if I said I don't think about drinking because I think about it every day, I don't miss it anymore, and that's amazing.
Imagine hitting rock bottom, then finding a way to climb back up, not just to survive but to thrive. That's the heart of Miguel Reyes' story in this episode of 'Staying Fit ODAAT'. Miguel takes listeners through his tumultuous past, growing up with an alcoholic father and falling into the same destructive patterns in his early twenties. His life spiraled into legal troubles and job loss, culminating in a car accident that served as his wake-up call.
A chance encounter with an old-timer at a church meeting became the catalyst for his transformation. Miguel's journey isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about discovering the power of fitness and community in recovery. Running and participating in races gave him new goals and a sense of achievement that replaced his need for alcohol. But more than that, it provided him with a new purpose: to share his story and help others on their path to sobriety.
This episode is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the incredible impact of fitness in recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction, supporting someone who is, or just looking for inspiration, Miguel's story offers hope and motivation. Tune in to hear how he turned his life around, one day at a time.
