For most people recovery comes with some sort of spiritual element. In this case that element seems to be supernatural.
Imagine going from playing bass at Abbey Road Studios alongside legends like Elton John and David Bowie to living on the streets of Manchester. That’s the incredible journey of Robb Kelly, who shares his gripping story on this episode of 'The Drunkalogues'. Hosted by Nick Morton, a comedian and recovering addict, this episode dives into the highs and lows of Kelly's life.
Starting with a childhood marred by stage fright, Kelly turned to alcohol as a coping mechanism, which eventually spiraled into a handle-a-day habit. This destructive path led to a violent outburst that cost him his marriage and home, landing him on the streets. But Kelly's story doesn’t end there. His recovery journey is nothing short of miraculous, involving what he describes as supernatural elements.
Now, he’s the founder of The Robb Kelly Recovery Group, helping others navigate their own paths to sobriety. In a candid conversation with Nick Morton, Kelly discusses the vital role of support systems and the spiritual aspects that played a part in his recovery. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of humor, raw honesty, and hope.
Tune in for an unforgettable tale of resilience and redemption that underscores the importance of finding strength in the darkest of times.
