How do people find strength in their journey to sobriety? In this episode of Real Recovery, Micah shares his extraordinary story of transformation and redemption. Born in South Korea and adopted by a loving family, Micah struggled with feelings of rejection and belonging from a young age. These feelings led him down a dark path of substance abuse, beginning with cigarettes at nine and escalating to methamphetamines by fourteen.

His life spiralled into chaos, marked by multiple arrests and prison time. However, Micah's story is not just about his struggles; it's about the remarkable turnaround he experienced through faith.
