Tim Brooks: From Lacrosse Prodigy to Redemption in Sobriety

Everyone wants to be happy, and my pathway has been a proven process of recovery.
What happens when a promising lacrosse career takes a dark turn into the world of drugs and crime? Meet Tim Brooks, once a top high school lacrosse recruit from an affluent suburb, whose life spiraled into chaos. In this gripping episode of 'The Payoff with Pete', Tim opens up about his shocking journey from sports stardom to becoming the second-in-command of a notorious drug ring—a downfall that landed him on Good Morning America for all the wrong reasons.
But Tim's story doesn't end there. Now seven years sober, he sits down with Pete Sousa to reflect on his past and share how he transformed his life from 'taking' in addiction to 'giving' in sobriety. Tim discusses the vital role of structure and routine in his recovery, the spiritual awakening that guided him, and the support systems that helped him rebuild his life after incarceration.
He also dives into the tough realities of re-entering society post-prison, offering valuable insights for anyone facing similar challenges. This episode isn't just about Tim's fall from grace; it's about his incredible rise to a life filled with purpose and generosity. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that highlights the power of redemption and the strength found in recovery.
