I looked in the mirror after About A Week or Two Weeks, and it's the first time I had seen my eyes sparkle and clear, the whites of my eyes in Over Years, and I liked what I saw: sick and tired of being sick and tired.
George's story is a gripping tale of highs and lows, starting from his childhood in Brooklyn. Growing up as the son of bar owners, George was introduced to alcohol at a young age. Mixing cocktails and drinking was just part of the family routine. By his teenage years, George and his friends were diving into marijuana, hashish, and psychedelics, all the while thinking they were just having fun.
But the fun soon turned into a nightmare as George found himself addicted to crack cocaine and living on the streets. He lost not only his job but also the trust of his daughter. His life spiraled out of control, leading him to a point where he had to confront his addictions head-on. Through counseling and treatment, George began to rebuild his life.
His story on Steppin' Out Radio is a raw and honest account of the struggles of addiction and the long road to recovery. George's journey offers a beacon of hope for anyone facing similar battles, showing that with support and determination, it's possible to reclaim your life.
