Imagine being just 13 years old and facing the ultimatum of attending AA or being kicked out onto the streets. That's the reality our guest on this episode of Safe Recovery faced. Now, with over 35 years of sobriety under his belt, he shares his incredible journey from a troubled teen to a thriving adult. He opens up about the challenges and triumphs he experienced within the 12-step program, offering a unique perspective that’s both pro-AA and deeply personal.

It also explores the impact of childhood trauma on addiction and the importance of self-care in the healing process. Whether you're a fan of AA or skeptical about its methods, this conversation is sure to provide valuable insights and spark meaningful reflection.
Tune in for a heartfelt discussion that not only examines the culture of 12-step programs but also considers alternative approaches to building a supportive, sober community.
