And I hear a lot of stories over the course of each year and there are two common themes, neither one of which will fit in my story. It's true for the people who come here and who relate that to you, but it's not part of my story, and that is that I never fit in and I got to the Marine Corps I fit in.
Lyle P from Stockbridge, Georgia, shares a riveting tale of transformation and hope. Speaking at the 2014 Crested Butte Mountain Conference, Lyle opens up about his tumultuous past, including a drinking episode that captured national headlines for weeks.

Lyle dives deep into the impact of alcoholism on his family and the heavy burden of shame and guilt he carried for years.
He emphasizes the crucial role that AA meetings and workshops played in his recovery journey, providing a supportive and non-judgmental space to heal.

Lyle's reflections on spirituality and its role in restoring his emotional well-being are particularly poignant. His journey serves as a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction, illustrating that recovery is not just possible but transformative.
