Tom B. AA speaker

Tom B. takes the stage in this episode of Recovery Radio Network, sharing his gripping journey from the depths of alcoholism to a life transformed by AA. With humour and raw honesty, Tom recounts his experiences from the early days of sobriety, filled with self-doubt and fear, to finding a sense of belonging and hope through the support of fellow AA members.

His vivid storytelling brings to life the struggles and triumphs of recovery, painting a picture that many can relate to. He describes the initial disbelief that recovery could work for him, a sentiment many newcomers feel, and how over time, he realised that underneath, we are all much alike. Tom’s anecdotes range from humorous moments to deeply emotional reflections, like the time he couldn't believe people were complaining about cold chicken when he didn't even have food in the fridge.

He speaks candidly about the importance of community and how simple acts of kindness from others in AA helped him stay sober. His message is clear: bring your body to the meetings, and your mind will follow. This episode is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible and that no one is alone in their journey.
