Life is about helping others, and I've got to help as many people as I possibly can.
Imagine hitting rock bottom and then finding the strength to climb back up. In this episode of 'Sharing Recovery', hosts Suzanne Kelly and Jack Kropp sit down with a guest who has lived through the darkest days of alcoholism and emerged stronger. The guest opens up about his early struggles, including how his mother's drinking influenced his own destructive habits in college.
He candidly discusses the pressures of running a business and how he used alcohol as a crutch to cope with stress, leading to a daily battle with heavy drinking. But this story isn't just about hitting rock bottom—it's about the journey back up. The guest shares his turning point, the moment he decided to wake up each day and choose not to drink.
He emphasizes the importance of 'cleaning house' and being honest with oneself, a process that helped him find a new purpose in life: helping others on their recovery journeys. This episode dives deep into the value of community and support in recovery. The guest's story is a powerful reminder that no matter how far you've fallen, it's never too late to turn your life around.
Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers a blend of raw honesty and hopeful inspiration. Tune in to 'Sharing Recovery' and hear how one man transformed his life from chaos to purpose.
