In this episode of the Sober Motivation Podcast, Brad, celebrating his 38th birthday, shares a profound conversation with Jordan Metzel. Despite growing up in an alcohol-free environment, Jordan encountered alcohol in her late teens, leading to a tumultuous journey through her twenties characterized by binge drinking and addiction. Her story is one of resilience and transformation, as she navigated the challenges of alcoholism and emerged victorious in her pursuit of sobriety.
Jordan's journey to sobriety was catalyzed by several transformative moments, including the birth of her children and guidance from a sober coach.

Now, nearly two years sober, Jordan reflects on how sobriety has revitalized her life, strengthened her marriage, and enhanced her business ventures.

He encourages listeners who are struggling, assuring them that a path to sobriety is possible, even when it seems out of reach. Jordan's story highlights the importance of community support in the recovery process.
She praises the Sober Motivation community for its role in her journey, offering a space where individuals can share their stories and find encouragement. This support system has been instrumental in helping Jordan rebuild her life and regain confidence in her abilities, including pursuing creative endeavors like writing a book. The episode concludes with a reflection on the profound changes sobriety brings, not only in personal well-being but also in decision-making and life choices.
Brad's conversation with Jordan serves as a beacon of hope and motivation for anyone battling addiction, demonstrating that transformation is achievable with the right support and mindset.
