Curtis's Path from Partying to Sobriety: The Sober Bike Ride Adventure

No one is doing sobriety the same, and that is why I have this podcast: because I can bring someone on and they're not going to have the same story as me, because we're all doing it differently.
Crystal Morrell kicks off the second season of 'Sober Onions' with an engaging chat with Curtis Wasylow, a man who transformed his life from heavy partying to committed sobriety. Curtis, originally from just outside Vancouver, BC, Canada, had a seemingly perfect life—successful businesses, a charming personality, and a constant smile. But beneath the surface, he was grappling with serious addiction issues that began when he was just 13 years old.
In this episode, Curtis opens up about how his early start with alcohol and drugs led to severe consequences by his mid-20s. He faced legal troubles, financial ruin, and mental health struggles, including skyrocketing anxiety and stress. A car accident that nearly claimed his life was the wake-up call he needed. On May 23rd, 2021, Curtis publicly acknowledged his addiction and took the first steps towards recovery.
One of the most compelling parts of Curtis's story is his sober bike ride journey from Washington to California. This adventure wasn't just a physical challenge but a crucial part of his recovery process, helping him find clarity and focus. Curtis and Crystal also discuss the upcoming Sober App, designed to help people track their sobriety and connect with vital resources.
Crystal emphasizes that sobriety is a unique journey for everyone, saying, 'No one is doing sobriety the same, and that is why I have this podcast: because I can bring someone on and they're not going to have the same story as me, because we're all doing it differently'. This episode is a testament to the power of community and the different paths one can take towards a sober life.
Tune in to hear Curtis's inspiring journey and gain insights into the importance of community and resources in recovery. Whether you're on your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable perspectives and encouragement.
