Pat's Path to Peace: From Chaos to Contentment

I don't want to change the way I feel with alcohol or drugs and that choice, that ability to choose- not even think about that, it's not even a choice I'm having to make now- is what gives me access to living a contented and a contented life that has many moments of happiness.
Picture a life in turmoil, where weekends are lost to binge drinking and attempts at controlled drinking only add to the chaos. That's where Pat found himself before he began his journey to sobriety. In this compelling episode of the Boiled Owl AA Recovery Podcast, hosts Don and Sam sit down with Pat, who opens up about his tumultuous relationship with alcohol and his eventual path to self-acceptance.

Pat also shares the unexpected joy he found in being of service to others, which has enriched his life in ways he never imagined.
This episode is a treasure trove of hope and inspiration for anyone struggling with addiction or looking to deepen their understanding of recovery. Tune in to hear how Pat overcame fear and self-doubt, finding contentment and happiness along the way.
