Robert O's Path: From Addiction to Advocacy

We use alcohol, we use drugs- for me it was alcohol, meth and coke- just to feel normal, to be accepted, to not have to deal with the real issues in life.
What does it take to turn a life of addiction into one of advocacy and support? In this episode of 'Sharing Our Stories', Robert O from Denver opens up about his tumultuous journey with alcohol and drugs. From his early encounters with meth and cocaine to the heartbreak of losing his brother and facing jail time, Robert's story is a raw portrayal of the struggles many face in the grip of addiction.
But it's also a story of resilience and transformation. Graduating from Stout Street Foundation and finding a new purpose at Spero Recovery House, Robert now dedicates his life to helping others on their path to recovery. His candid reflections on using substances to 'feel normal' and the pivotal role of support systems offer listeners both a sobering reality check and a beacon of hope. If you're seeking an honest, heartfelt account of overcoming addiction, this episode is a must-listen.
