Chris Eklund on Sobriety, Politics, and Life Without a Higher Power
“I used to think to myself: wow, like, really like I do, and she would try and reason with me and explain to me why she felt that way. Well, you're going against who I am, and if trump and the Christian right, you know, would have their way with it, I would be persecuted for being who I am.”
What happens when you mix recovery, politics, and a dash of atheism? You get a riveting conversation between Del Bacon and Chris Eklund. In this episode of 'The Recovery Atheist', Chris Eklund opens up about his move to a new city where he didn't know a soul, and how that experience pushed him towards sobriety. Chris dives into the challenges he faced, including the fear of the unknown, and how he overcame them without leaning on a higher power.
It's not just about personal battles though; Chris also touches on the importance of voter turnout and how every vote can shape the future. The discussion doesn't shy away from the nitty-gritty of politics and current events, all viewed through an atheist's lens. Wrapping up, Del and Chris explore the power of podcasting as a tool for sharing personal journeys and sparking meaningful conversations.
Whether you're navigating recovery, interested in politics, or just curious about life without a higher power, this episode offers something for everyone.
