Getting sober requires a rewiring of the brain, and instead of reaching for a drink, we have to learn how to reach for support.
Imagine growing up with the weight of your parent's addiction on your shoulders. In this episode of 'One For The Road', Sobriety Coach David Wilson, also known as SoberDave, sits down with Josh Connolly to unravel his compelling story of resilience. Josh opens up about his turbulent childhood as the son of an alcoholic and the subsequent battles he faced with alcohol and drugs.
He doesn't shy away from the dark moments, including the time he contemplated ending his life just nine months into sobriety. But this isn't just a tale of despair. Josh shares how a powerful experience with his children became a turning point, steering him towards a brighter future. Now, as a resilience coach and co-host of the '115 Miles' podcast, Josh talks about the importance of emotional support and community in overcoming addiction.
His candid conversation with David highlights the profound impact of childhood trauma on mental health and addiction, while also offering hope and practical insights for those on their own sobriety journey. Whether you're struggling with addiction or supporting someone who is, Josh's story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the transformative power of resilience.
