Gratitude is an action, and I'm grateful, because if I do not act grateful, I will not feel grateful for long.
Imagine flying to Costa Rica to celebrate your sixth year of sobriety, only to face a travel nightmare and a lost interview recording. That's how Ken Rivord's story begins on this episode of The SHAIR Recovery Podcast. Host Omar Pinto sits down with Ken, who shares his harrowing journey through child abuse, mental illness, IV drug addiction, prison, and multiple relapses. But Ken's tale isn't just about the struggles; it's about the incredible resilience and transformation that followed.
Through sheer desperation and a willingness to change, Ken found his way to lasting recovery. He highlights the crucial roles of spirituality, connection, and professional help in his healing process. Ken's message is clear: no matter how dark life gets, there's always a path to redemption if you give yourself a chance. His words, 'gratitude is an action, and I'm grateful, because if I do not act grateful, I will not feel grateful for long', resonate deeply throughout the episode.
Tune in to hear a story that proves hope and recovery are always within reach.
