I've gotten to know a lot of great sober people through my journey in sobriety, especially on the other side- Nine Plus Years of sobriety, but there's only one first in life, as we all know, and this guy, Pete, was the first guy I ever knew to get sober personally, and he did it at Years Old.
What happens when a life spirals out of control at just 17, only to find a beacon of hope in rehab? Peter F's story is a testament to the power of resilience and support. In this episode of 'The Payoff with Pete', host Pete Sousa reconnects with his old friend Peter F, who made a special trip from Phoenix to share his incredible journey.
Once partners in mischief, their paths diverged dramatically—Peter F entered rehab at 17, while Pete S faced a heart problem at 18. Now, 25 years sober, Peter F opens up about how he turned his darkest moments into a guiding light for others. He discusses the pivotal role of rehab, the unwavering support from family and friends, and the camaraderie that played a crucial part in his recovery.
His reflections offer a raw and honest look at the struggles and triumphs of sobriety. If you're seeking inspiration or practical advice on overcoming addiction, Peter F's story is a must-listen. It's not just about getting sober; it's about finding a new purpose and helping others along the way.
