Over the period of time, and I had quit smoking before I came to AA, but I did change lots of other aspects of my life and I don't think I could do it all at the same time.
Imagine hitting rock bottom 42 times before finding the strength to change. That’s Hank’s story, and it’s a powerful one. On this episode of the Boiled Owl AA Recovery Podcast, Hank shares his tumultuous journey to sobriety. Starting with his multiple attempts at what he calls 'geographical cures', Hank takes us through his struggles with addiction and his eventual surrender when the US Marshals showed up.
Finding himself in jail, he began his recovery with nothing but a photocopy of Chapter 5 from Alcoholics Anonymous' Big Book. Hank's story is a testament to resilience and the power of AA's support system. His home group, the No Name Group in Hilton Head, SC, played a crucial role in his recovery, meeting daily at 12:15 PM at the YANA Club.
Don and Sam, the hosts, create a welcoming space for Hank to open up about the highs and lows of his journey. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking hope and inspiration in their own battle with addiction. Tune in to hear how Hank turned his life around and how you can find your own path to recovery.
