We actually are the characters in our own stories.
What do you do when addiction runs deep in your family, and you find yourself caught in its web? Rob Hannley knows this story all too well. Growing up with a father who had gambling issues, a sister addicted to heroin, and a brother struggling with substance abuse, Rob was no stranger to the devastating effects of addiction. Yet, despite his early exposure, he managed to carve out a successful career as a businessman and entrepreneur.
It wasn't until the spring of 1994 that he decided alcohol no longer had a place in his life and embraced sobriety. In this episode of 'Sober Nation FM', hosted by Jonathan Sylvester, Rob shares his journey from the chaos of addiction to the clarity of sobriety. He talks about the pivotal moment when he realized he needed to make a change and how that decision led him to start Recovery Today Magazine in 2012.
This free online publication has become a beacon of hope, featuring recovery stories from well-known celebrities like Russell Brand, Darryl Strawberry, and Jamie Lee Curtis. Rob's story isn't just about his own recovery; it's about the transformative power of storytelling. He emphasizes how sharing these stories brings hope to those who need it most. Rob believes that when you help someone save their life, it resonates deeply, creating ripples of positive change.
Throughout the conversation, Rob and Jonathan explore the impact of addiction on relationships and the importance of empathy in the recovery process. They delve into the significance of building healthy habits and routines, like making your bed in the morning, to bring structure and discipline into one's life. Rob also highlights the crucial role of community support, urging listeners to reach out when they need help.
