In this episode of 'gAy A: A Queer Sober Podcast', host Steve Martin-Bennet sits down with Craig, who shares his remarkable journey from addiction to a fulfilling sober life. Craig opens up about the pivotal moment at his stepsister's graduation party that set him on the path to addiction, and how he eventually found his way to sobriety.
He talks about the vital role of a supportive community and how overcoming codependency was crucial in his recovery process. Craig also highlights the benefits of engaging in social activities designed for people in recovery, like yoga classes, which helped him rediscover a sense of belonging. Through his story, Craig emphasizes that sobriety is not about misery but transformation, urging others to embrace their own unique journeys.
