When we can do what we love to do, when we do what we love, it's never a day of work in your life.
What does true freedom look like? For Charles Mitchell, it wasn't the moment he walked out of prison, but the moment he surrendered to sobriety while still behind bars. In this heartfelt episode of 'Emerge. Evolve. Lead.', host Maureen Ross Gemme sits down with Charles to explore his incredible journey from addiction and incarceration to becoming a beacon of hope and leadership for others in recovery.
Charles opens up about his turbulent past, marked by a traumatic childhood and years of substance abuse that led him in and out of prison. But it was during one of these stints that he experienced a profound change, choosing to embrace sobriety on July 3, 2006. Now, Charles dedicates his life to helping newly sober individuals find jobs through a program he runs at the Middlesex Chamber of Commerce in Middletown, CT.
He shares how mentorship and support have been crucial in his recovery and leadership development. Spirituality also plays a significant role in his journey, providing him with the strength and guidance needed to stay on track. Through his story, Charles emphasizes the power of sharing one's experiences to inspire and uplift others. If you're looking for a tale of resilience and transformation, this episode offers plenty of both.
