Today, it isn't about drinking or drugging man, it's just if I'm not doing the right things or using the resources, the tools that are available to me through this program, I can really suffer miserably, you know, and it, it happens sometimes, you know, and I get knocked off, you know, and I'm not alone, I know this, you know, we're not alone.
Ever wondered how someone with years of sobriety keeps it together? In this episode of 'NAP Time', Alex G. sits down with Bowie, a seasoned voice in the recovery community, to chat about the tools and resources that have helped him stay sober. They kick things off by talking about the 'gift of desperation'—that pivotal moment when you realize something's got to change.
Bowie's journey is full of practical tips and heartfelt stories, making this a must-listen for anyone navigating their own path to sobriety. Bowie emphasizes the importance of doing a thorough personal inventory and understanding one's higher power. He shares how these practices have not only kept him sober but also enriched his life in unexpected ways. The conversation takes a heartfelt turn as Bowie talks about the value of being of service to others, without expecting anything in return.
His relationships in recovery, he notes, have been a cornerstone of his continued sobriety. One standout moment is when Bowie talks about attending meetings no matter where he is—whether on vacation or visiting family. It's a reminder that recovery doesn't take a break.
As Bowie puts it, 'Today, it isn't about drinking or drugging man, it's just if I'm not doing the right things or using the resources, the tools that are available to me through this program, I can really suffer miserably'. With the holiday season on the horizon, Alex and Bowie also touch on the challenges of staying sober while dealing with family dynamics. Their candid discussion offers valuable insights and encouragement for anyone facing similar struggles.
Tune in to hear Bowie's wisdom and join the conversation about what it truly means to live a life in recovery.
