My program is like gone into overdrive in a way that I couldn't have expected. I know my life now I could have never dreamed of having, and there are cash and prizes, but there's a lot of spiritual cash and prizes, and those are the ones that are most important to me.
Jason’s story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit. Growing up in a family with a history of alcoholism, Jason was no stranger to the dangers of drinking. Yet, like many, those early warnings didn’t deter him. College life saw his drinking escalate to a daily routine, and drugs were managed with strict personal rules.
His first DUI came on his 21st birthday, and a second nearly cost him his life when he wrapped his car around a telephone pole. It was during one of those bleak 'next mornings' that Jason hit his spiritual bottom, staring at himself in the mirror and realizing something had to change. Through lockdowns and the challenging journey of sobriety, Jason discovered aspects of himself he never knew.
He embraced the program of Alcoholics Anonymous, finding solace and growth in its community. Today, Jason is not just a sober individual but a confident husband, father, and an active AA member who sponsors others and continues to work the steps. His story is one of acceptance, perseverance, and transformation. He speaks candidly about the role of meditation in his recovery and the unique challenges of parenting during a pandemic while maintaining sobriety.
