David, an AA speaker from Fresno, takes the stage with a blend of humour and raw honesty in this episode of Recovery Radio Network. Sharing his journey from the depths of alcoholism to a life of sobriety, David's story is both gripping and relatable. He candidly talks about his nervousness at AA meetings despite being a seasoned public speaker, and how he found solace and strength in the fellowship of Alcoholics Anonymous.
David's anecdotes range from his early days in Los Angeles to his career as a certified public accountant, and eventually, his role as a priest advocating for farm workers' rights. His tale is peppered with moments of vulnerability, like standing on a corner in his shorts during the sailor riots or struggling with the demons that haunted him at night. Yet, it's his unwavering commitment to sobriety and the AA community that stands out.
David credits his sobriety to the support of his AA friends and the spiritual guidance he received along the way. His reflections on the importance of honesty, service, and love in recovery are both moving and motivational. By the end of the episode, you'll feel like you've gained a new friend in David, someone who understands the trials of addiction and the triumphs of recovery.
If you're looking for an authentic and heartfelt story that underscores the power of community and personal growth, this episode is a must-listen.
