Nicole H and David B: Journeys of Resilience and Connection

For me, I think it's a lot more than that. But Today I have a solution that gives me the gift of awareness to be able to see these things and be like: oh, wait a minute, like I'm living in fear, what do we do about it?
What do you get when two remarkable individuals share their paths to sobriety? You get an episode filled with raw honesty and hope. In this episode of Sober Cast, listeners are treated to the powerful stories of Nicole H and David B. Nicole, hailing from Phoenix, AZ, has been sober for nearly five years. She opens up about her struggles with addiction, hitting rock bottom, and the pivotal role AA played in her recovery.
Recorded at the 1st Anniversary of the Phoenix Friday Night Young Peoples meeting in September 2020, her story is a testament to the power of sponsorship and surrendering to a higher power. Despite some initial audio hum and occasional car noises from the outdoor setting, Nicole's message shines through loud and clear. David B, who has been sober for an impressive 27 years, shares his experiences from the Hollywood Squares meeting held in May 2020.
As an LGBTQ member of AA, David talks about facing discrimination and finding acceptance within the AA community. His reflections on the evolution of AA and the role of technology in connecting people during the COVID-19 pandemic offer valuable insights. Both Nicole and David emphasize the importance of staying connected and sharing stories in recovery. Their experiences highlight that no matter how tough the journey, recovery is possible.
This episode is a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction or supporting someone who is. Tune in to hear their compelling stories and find inspiration in their resilience.
