Darren Hobbs: From Addiction to Advocacy

I have put my family in a position to shield these dudes, these little bitty, sweet children, from investing their time in me, because they're scared. I'm not going to be there, I'm going to hurt them, you know.
Imagine growing up with fear and anxiety as constant companions. That's how Darren Hobbs' story begins. Struggling to find peace, he turned to alcohol and drugs, eventually spiraling into a cocaine addiction. This path led him to rock bottom, impacting his relationships and career in devastating ways. But Darren's story doesn't end there.
In this episode of 'Rooted Recovery Stories', he opens up about his journey from addiction to recovery, shedding light on the power of community and connection in the healing process. Now a recovery advocate at the Nashville Recovery Center, Darren dedicates his life to helping others find the hope and healing he discovered. His message is simple yet powerful: 'If I can do it, anybody can.' Tune in to hear Darren's compelling story of transformation and resilience.
