If you're not going to change in this program, you're not going to stay sober.
Gary's journey through 40 years of sobriety is nothing short of remarkable. In this episode of the 'Keep Coming Back Podcast', hosted by Tara, Gary opens up about his experiences with alcoholism and the transformative power of Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). From the early days of struggling to control his drinking to the life-changing moment when he decided to do whatever it took to stay sober, Gary's story is a powerful testament to the resilience of the human spirit.
He shares candid insights into the importance of willingness in recovery, emphasizing that without a genuine desire to change, sobriety remains out of reach. Gary also highlights the pivotal role of sponsorship in AA, recounting how his sponsor's encouragement helped him stay on track. He talks about the importance of surrounding oneself with supportive individuals and avoiding those who might hinder recovery.
One particularly moving aspect of Gary's story is his decision to break anonymity on several occasions, sharing his journey with those he believed could benefit from hearing it. This episode delves into the ongoing work of self-improvement and the quality of sobriety, reminding us that recovery is not just about abstaining from alcohol but also about building meaningful relationships and continually striving for personal growth.
Gary's story is a beacon of hope and inspiration for anyone seeking a life free from addiction.
