Jason Carter: Turning Trauma into Triumph with Humor and Honesty

I don't know if you've heard this saying. You know, I've never really felt comfortable with the term recovery. I mean I'm in discovery, yeah, because I mean at The End Of The Day, you're, you're, you're rewiring every part of your life.
Ever thought about how humor can be a lifeline in the darkest of times? Jason Carter’s story might just change your perspective. In this episode of 'Knockin' Doorz Down', host Jason LaChance chats with Jason Carter, the author of 'To Hell I Ride', a book that hilariously yet heartbreakingly chronicles his journey from alcoholism to self-discovery. From the outside, Jason seemed to have it all—a wonderful wife, amazing kids, and a big house near a country club.
But inside, he was battling unresolved trauma and alcoholism, even contemplating suicide. Imagine feeling like a 'musky sock floating in the soup'—that’s how Jason describes his unchecked drinking. A session with a psychologist led him to hit the road from Texas to Telluride, searching for clarity. Along the way, he faced numerous challenges that pushed him closer to rock bottom. Yet, this journey also marked the beginning of his path to extreme self-awareness.
Jason's brutally honest account reveals how alcohol crept into his life and the toll it took. His story isn’t just about hitting rock bottom; it's about finding the courage to confront personal demons and rebuild. Through humor and candid reflections, Jason shows how laughter can be a powerful tool in recovery. He prefers to call his journey 'discovery' rather than 'recovery', emphasizing the ongoing process of learning and growing.
This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking for inspiration, hope, and a good laugh on their own path to self-discovery.
