Tommy Figs: From Brooklyn Streets to Lasting Sobriety
“Everything that was good in my life was because I went to those meetings and because I got sober and because I changed my life.”
Ever wondered what it takes to turn a life of chaos into one of recovery? In this episode of 'The Way Out', co-host Jason returns with an engaging conversation featuring Tommy Figlioli, known to many as Tommy Figs. Tommy's story is a gripping tale of growing up in Brooklyn, New York, where he navigated a tumultuous life marked by addiction and the absence of a positive male role model.
His journey through the 'bumpy road' to recovery is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. Tommy opens up about his early struggles, from seeking acceptance in the wrong places to hitting rock bottom. His raw honesty about nearly succumbing to despair and his eventual surrender to recovery is a powerful testament to the human spirit. Tommy also shares what drove him to pen his memoir, 'That's What Junkies Do', offering a candid look at his hardest challenges while living clean.
This episode is packed with heart and hope, making it a must-listen for anyone touched by addiction.
