Honesty is the biggest life-changing thing I've done with myself in sobriety and, uh, the biggest decision I can advise to anybody who hasn't been honest with yourself yet, because it's that dishonesty with yourself.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to turn a life around from the brink of collapse? In this episode of 'Creative Sobriety', Kristen Bear chats with Mike M, known on Instagram as @faithfullysober. Mike, now 36 and living in Fort Worth, Texas, opens up about his intense battle with alcohol addiction that nearly destroyed his marriage and health. His story is one of hitting rock bottom before finding the strength to rebuild his life.
Mike's journey through rehab wasn't straightforward; it took a second attempt for sobriety to truly take hold. Along the way, he faced childhood trauma, a fear of vulnerability, and challenging family dynamics. But in recovery, Mike discovered faith, which became a cornerstone of his healing process. He rekindled his marriage and now finds joy in helping others navigate their own paths to sobriety. Mike's candidness about his struggles and triumphs offers hope and insight to anyone dealing with similar issues.
He emphasizes the importance of honesty, saying, 'Honesty is the biggest life-changing thing I've done with myself in sobriety'. Tune in to hear how Mike's faith and commitment to truth have transformed his life, and how social media plays a role in his ongoing recovery. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and practical advice on the road to sobriety.
