Nobody comes in happy, joyous, and free. And literally, you know, before I got sober, that's playing for tips.
What happens when an artist and musician finds himself on the path to sobriety? In this episode of the Daily Reflection Podcast, Huston W. shares his unique journey from addiction to recovery. Known for his creativity and musical talents, Huston opens up about how these aspects of his life have been crucial in his healing process.
He even treats listeners to a song he wrote about the brand of liquor he used to drink before getting sober, offering a poignant look into his past struggles and present triumphs. Huston also dives into the importance of Tradition Three from Alcoholics Anonymous, which states, 'The only requirement for A.A. membership is a desire to stop drinking'. Initially, he thought this tradition was just for newcomers, but over time, he realized its deeper significance.
Through stories of people he's met in A.A.—like Charlotte, the atheist who taught him about ethics, or Winslow, who is gay and led by example—Huston illustrates how embracing diversity within the recovery community has enriched his own spiritual development. Listeners will find Huston's reflections both relatable and inspiring. His story underscores the value of forming connections and offering service to others as vital components of recovery.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Huston's words and music provide a beacon of hope and a reminder that no one is alone on this journey.
