The strongest thing I can do is surrender and be okay with not being strong anymore, and that's something that I know, even for me is like: what do you mean? And that full surrender, that full willingness, is the strongest thing that we can do.
Imagine hitting rock bottom, then finding the courage to rebuild your life piece by piece. That’s exactly what Drew Laboon did, and his story is nothing short of inspiring. In this heartfelt episode of 'Hope Ahead', Drew opens up about his journey through addiction and the pivotal moments that led him to recovery. But this isn't just a tale of overcoming substance use; it's about emotional healing, too.
Drew talks candidly about surviving sexual assault and battling PTSD, showing that recovery goes far beyond just physical detox. He emphasizes the importance of surrendering control and being willing to face the underlying emotions that fuel addiction. Working now at the very place that helped him find his path, Drew shares how he's managed to stay out of his own way and embrace a life of sobriety.
His story is a powerful reminder that true strength often comes from letting go. If you're looking for a dose of hope and practical advice on navigating the stormy waters of recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
