Recovery is different for everyone.
Ever felt like life keeps knocking you down? Meet Sterling Shrout, a man who knows all too well about hitting rock bottom. In this gripping episode of 'Recovery For Real', host Dave Koch sits down with Sterling to unpack his incredible journey from homelessness and addiction to becoming a successful entrepreneur and family man. Sterling's story begins in the rough terrain of poverty and trailer parks, where he first turned to drugs and alcohol as an escape.
His life spiraled further into chaos, leading to a decade-long prison sentence. But this isn't just another tale of hardship—it's one of resilience and transformation. After his release, Sterling faced the daunting task of rebuilding his life. He took on odd jobs, lived in a trailer, and struggled to stay sober. The turning point came when he discovered entrepreneurship and the 1 Life Fully Lived organization.
Through sheer determination and the support of a mentor who had also been incarcerated, Sterling carved out a path to financial freedom. In this episode, Sterling opens up about the crucial role of having a support system and the importance of giving back. He stresses that recovery is a personal journey and encourages listeners to find their own way. His story is a beacon of hope for anyone feeling trapped by their circumstances.
