I am a grateful, recovering co-alcoholic, privileged to be a member of the worldwide fellowship of the Al-Anon family groups.
Imagine being at a convention and realizing that your entire journey of recovery has been leading to this moment. That's exactly what happened to Solis R. from Austin, Texas, when he attended the July 2017 Al-Anon Convention in Phoenix, Arizona. In this heartfelt episode, Solis opens up about his path to sobriety, shedding light on the struggles and triumphs that have shaped his life.
He talks candidly about learning to lie convincingly as a child, a skill born out of necessity but one that led him down a dark path. His resentment towards his mother was another heavy burden he carried for years, but through the support of Al-Anon, he found a way to let go and heal. Service plays a crucial role in Solis's recovery, and he shares how helping others became a cornerstone of his own healing process.
Financial struggles are also part of his story, but he speaks with gratitude about overcoming them and finding stability. One of the most poignant moments in this episode is when Solis recounts a long-awaited conversation with his mother, a moment of forgiveness that lifted a significant weight off his shoulders. This episode isn't just about one man's journey; it's a testament to the transformative power of Al-Anon and the importance of community in recovery.
Whether you're on your own path to sobriety or supporting someone who is, Solis's story offers valuable insights and hope.
