Corey Winfield: The Power of Stories and Staying Honest in Recovery

Well, I'll just accept it, because I'll never, I'm never going to get it. Finally, like I said, thank god, you know, I prayed that I would figure it out One Day. Yeah, you know, and I'm glad that I went through all the hell that I did, because I can help people Today.
