There's no other high there, there is no other.
Ever wondered what it takes to turn your life around after hitting rock bottom? In this episode of M2 The Rock, Michael Molthan chats with Robin Bagwell, who shares her deeply personal journey to sobriety. Growing up with both parents in recovery, Robin knew where to seek help when she reached her lowest point on April 28, 2002.
Her husband, Norm, initially thought she just had a bad habit of drinking too much wine, but Robin was determined to make a lasting change. With the unwavering support of her family and friends, she embarked on a challenging but transformative path to sobriety. Robin’s story is a testament to the power of community and perseverance. She emphasizes how crucial the support from Alcoholics Anonymous and her close-knit circle was in maintaining her sobriety.
Today, Robin is not just a survivor but also a passionate advocate for addiction recovery. She actively participates in charity events and helps women who lack financial means or external support to find their way to a sober life. During the episode, Robin and Michael also discuss an upcoming event—a book club and speaking engagement with Laura Ball at the Hyatt Regency Dallas.
This event aims to raise funds for the Recovery Resource Council, an organization dedicated to providing resources and support for those battling addiction. Robin’s journey is a powerful reminder that with the right support and determination, overcoming addiction is possible.
