Eric H: Finding Gratitude in Recovery as a Police Officer

A grateful heart will never drink and I used to have people get up to the podium and say: hey, my name is Joe, I'm a grateful alcoholic, I'm Mary, I'm grateful, and you know I am Today.
Imagine being a police officer and battling addiction at the same time. That's exactly what Eric H., a Minneapolis cop, talks about on this episode of Friends in Recovery. Hosted by Jersey Ed and the Podfather Mike Miles, this episode dives deep into Eric's journey of overcoming addiction and finding gratitude in recovery.
Eric opens up about the unique challenges he faces as an officer in recovery, the crucial role of honesty and self-reflection, and how staying healthy through exercise has been vital for him. He also shares how the AA program has influenced his journey and emphasizes the power of gratitude with his belief that 'a grateful heart will never drink'. This episode isn't just about recovery; it's about resilience, community support, and the transformative power of gratitude.
Whether you're on your own recovery path or supporting someone who is, Eric's story offers hope and practical insights.
