Jersey Ed's Journey: From Bowling Alleys to Spirituality in Recovery

I don't have anybody telling me what a god is, I don't. So if you're telling me that I'm sinning and I'm broken and I have to go confess something to somebody, another human being, I get it. You know, I'm not the richest person, I'm not the happiest person, I'm not the fittest person in the world, but I'm somewhere in between.
Ever wondered how someone turns their life around from the depths of addiction? In this episode of 'Friends in Recovery', Jersey Ed opens up about his personal battle with addiction and his inspiring path to recovery. Starting with vivid childhood memories of time spent in a bowling alley that doubled as a bar, Ed's story is both raw and relatable.
He doesn't shy away from discussing the dark times, including strained relationships and the struggle to find his footing in life. But what truly stands out is his exploration of spirituality as a cornerstone of his recovery. Ed talks about the profound impact that connecting with a higher power has had on his journey, while also acknowledging that recovery is not a one-size-fits-all process. Different paths work for different people, and he encourages listeners to find their own way.
The episode is a heartfelt testament to the power of community support, with Ed sharing how the Friends in Recovery community has been a lifeline for him. His message is clear: no matter how tough it gets, don't give up. If you're looking for hope and practical advice on your own recovery journey, this episode is a must-listen.
