In this episode of Recovery Radio Network, you'll hear an engaging and often humorous tale from a seasoned AA speaker, sharing his journey of recovery and the ups and downs along the way.

From his days as an altar boy to his achievements in military high school and beyond, the story is filled with vivid anecdotes and reflections that many will find relatable and inspiring.
