Rarely have we seen a person fail who has thoroughly followed our path.
Ken H’s journey to sobriety is a heartfelt tale of resilience and community. In this episode of 'Sober Speak', host John M chats with Ken about his path through Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). Ken opens up about the pivotal role of the 12 steps, sponsorship, and chairmanship in his recovery. His story isn't just about quitting alcohol; it's about finding a new way to live.
Ken candidly discusses the challenges he faced, including the impact of alcoholism on his family and career, and how he found hope and joy in sobriety. One of the standout themes in Ken's story is the importance of having a sponsor. He stresses that finding someone who has walked the path before you can make all the difference. Ken also highlights chairmanship in meetings, underscoring the need for a welcoming and supportive environment for newcomers.
Balancing sobriety with life’s other demands is another key point Ken touches on. Whether it’s relationships, career, or personal responsibilities, staying true to AA’s principles while juggling these aspects can be tough. Ken shares his strategies for maintaining this balance and staying connected to the fellowship. Ken also delves into his experience with depression during his sobriety journey.
He talks about the tools and self-care practices that have helped him manage this condition, reminding listeners that reaching out for help is crucial. Ken’s story is a testament to the transformative power of AA and the importance of sharing one’s experiences.
