Kent P. shares his incredible journey of sobriety on this episode of the Keep Coming Back Podcast. He recounts his first AA meeting, sparked by a moment of grace, and how a simple gesture from a fellow member kept him coming back for nearly 15 years. Kent dives into his early experiences with alcohol, starting at the tender age of 12, and how it quickly became a central part of his life.
By the time he reached college, his drinking was out of control, leading to multiple expulsions and a realisation that he was an alcoholic. Despite this, it took years for Kent to fully embrace sobriety. He speaks candidly about the struggles and triumphs of his journey, from the early days of denial to the peace of mind he now enjoys.
Kent credits his recovery to the steps, service, and fellowship of AA, emphasising the importance of making the program a priority in his life.

Kent's story is filled with relatable moments and valuable lessons for anyone on their own path to sobriety.
He highlights the power of community, the importance of patience, and the transformative impact of consistent effort in AA. His message is clear: keep coming back, because the rewards are worth it.
