Gregory Cruz: A Journey from Addiction to Recovery
Nobody wakes up in life and says they want to be an addict. I feel I know I need you, but I'm still afraid it's the last chance.
What happens when sheer willpower isn't enough to stay sober? Gregory Cruz thought he had everything under control until his recovery journey, guided by faith, took him on a transformative path. In this episode of 'Take 12 Recovery Radio', host Monty Dale Meyer, affectionately known as the Monty'man, sits down with Gregory Cruz, a graduate of the Adult & Teen Challenge Recovery Program, to explore his compelling story of addiction and recovery.
Gregory opens up about the critical role of surrender and spirituality in his life. He discusses the challenges he faced when transitioning out of a structured recovery program and how accountability and daily priorities became cornerstones of his ongoing sobriety. This conversation isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding hope and strength through community and support. As always, the episode wraps up with a recovery-focused song by Bryan Duncan, adding a musical touch to Gregory's inspiring narrative.
Whether you're in recovery yourself or supporting someone who is, Gregory's story offers valuable insights and encouragement.
