Nathan's Road to Recovery: From Social Drinker to Sober Advocate

I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes.
Nathan's story is one of transformation and hope. What began as casual social drinking spiraled into a full-blown addiction, leading to multiple DUIs and even job loss. In this episode of 'Sixteenth Street Speakers', Nathan opens up about the moment he realized he had hit rock bottom: a car crash that served as his wake-up call. His journey into Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) marked the start of his path to sobriety.
Nathan talks candidly about the crucial role his sponsor played in those tough early days, guiding him through the process of quitting not just alcohol but also other substances like Adderall. He emphasizes that true recovery comes from within, sharing his mantra, 'I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as on what needs to be changed in me and in my attitudes'.
Nathan's story is a beacon for anyone grappling with addiction, proving that it's never too late to turn your life around. If you're searching for inspiration or guidance on your own journey to sobriety, Nathan's candid and heartfelt account is a must-listen.
