Bob Allen: 33 Years of Sobriety and the Power of Community

You know, um, and you know, that's my story there. That was not mine, right, I was the party guy. And, uh, at that time I didn't care because I was drunk and I just go party more right.
What does it take to stay sober for over three decades? In this episode of 'The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast', host Arlina Allen sits down with her husband, Bob Allen, who recently marked 33 years of continuous sobriety. Their conversation is more than just a recounting of Bob's journey; it's a deep dive into the challenges, triumphs, and the role community plays in long-term recovery.
Bob opens up about his early days as a 'party guy' and the pivotal moments that led him to embrace sobriety. He shares candidly about the highs and lows, including the heartache of losing his mother and how it reignited his commitment to happiness and sobriety. The episode also touches on alternative paths to recovery, like the use of ayahuasca, offering a broad perspective on what it means to stay sober.
Throughout their chat, Bob and Arlina highlight the invaluable support they've received from their community, proving that no one has to go through this journey alone. This episode is a heartfelt testament to the enduring power of love, growth, and community in the quest for a sober life.
