Josh Snyder: Finding Hope in Desperation

There was something that happened in that moment that was beyond my comprehension, beyond my power to even understand, and that there was a solution to my problem.
Imagine feeling completely lost, yet discovering a sense of hope and purpose. That's exactly what Josh Snyder talks about in this episode of 'Recovery On-Air'. With eight years of sobriety under his belt, Josh sits down with Greg to discuss the often-overlooked 'beauty of desperation'. He shares how hitting rock bottom led him to a life dedicated to helping others.
From his various roles at Crossroads to his personal experiences navigating a recovery community filled with drug addicts, Josh offers a raw and honest perspective on what it means to stay sober as an alcoholic. He touches on the challenges of avoiding a 'better than' mentality and the importance of staying grounded. The conversation also dives into the crucial role of community and sponsorship in recovery.
As Josh puts it, there was a moment that felt beyond his understanding, but it opened up a path to solutions he never imagined. If you're looking for a story that blends struggle with hope, and personal growth with community support, this episode is a must-listen.
