I lived in this community, very small catholic community, most of us were. You know, it's always somebody that I got caught up in bad company.
Ever wondered what it's like to stay sober for four decades? Holly M from Ann Arbor has done just that, and in this episode of Sober Cast, she shares her remarkable journey. Recorded in San Diego back in December 1994, Holly reflects on her life as an orphan and the struggles she faced with alcoholism. She paints a vivid picture of her lowest moments, including drinking with her children in the mornings and feeling utterly devoid of self-worth.
But Holly's story is also one of hope and transformation. She recounts the pivotal moment when she attended her first AA meeting and decided to surrender her will and life to a higher power. Throughout her talk, Holly highlights the importance of admitting one's wrongs, a key aspect of the fifth step in AA. She also discusses the privilege of making decisions in sobriety and the dangers of loneliness in addiction.
Holly's message is clear: sharing your journey with others can be a powerful tool for recovery. Her story is not just inspiring but a beacon of hope for anyone grappling with addiction. Tune in to hear Holly's heartfelt and encouraging words, and find some guidance for your own path to sobriety.
