Find something that works for you and find something that pushes you to be better.
OG Badger’s journey is nothing short of remarkable. Once entrenched in the harsh realities of addiction and prison life, he's now a beacon of hope for many. In this episode of the SOAR podcast, OG Badger opens up about his path to sobriety and how he transformed his life after incarceration.
Known for his candid and raw storytelling, he doesn’t shy away from discussing the gritty details of his past, but he also highlights the steps he took to rebuild his life. From daily recovery readings to sharing intense prison experiences, his stories aim to deter others from making the same mistakes. But it's in Part 2 where he truly shines, focusing on the recovery process that changed everything for him.
Badger talks about the pivotal role spirituality played in his journey and how embracing a Higher Power helped him accept people from all walks of life. He dives into the practical aspects too – how he secured a job, reconnected with his family, and continues to stay clean. One of the most touching parts of his story is his commitment to maintaining a $600/month bed for an addict, showcasing his dedication to giving back.
His message is clear: recovery is possible, and it’s vital to find what works for you, whether it’s through the 12 steps, spirituality, or community support. If you’re looking for inspiration and real talk about the challenges and triumphs of recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
