From Rabbi to Recovery: Yosef Eichenblatt’s Journey of Sobriety

I know peace, I know a new serenity and I feel like today I have the ability and a chance to be the best version of myself because I'm sober and because I work this program, and the joy is infinite.
Imagine feeling the weight of the world on your shoulders while trying to lead a community. That's exactly what happened to Rabbi Yosef Eichenblatt. He thought he had it all figured out when he moved to Jerusalem to serve as a local Rabbi. But behind the scenes, things were far from perfect. What started as casual drinking during his teen years spiraled into a dependency that overshadowed his responsibilities. Even prescriptions like Valium and Ritalin couldn't break the cycle.
It wasn't until Yosef hit rock bottom that he faced the truth about his alcohol problem. Now celebrating five years of sobriety, Yosef joins Coach Moishe on the Neshamos.org Podcast to share his incredible story. He opens up about how admitting his struggles and seeking help changed his life. Yosef emphasizes the importance of breaking the stigma around discussing personal issues, especially within tight-knit communities.
His journey is a testament to the power of vulnerability, faith, and the support of a community. Whether you're dealing with addiction or supporting someone who is, Yosef's story offers a beacon of hope and practical advice for anyone on the path to recovery.
