Feel like you’ll never get sober? Maybe you’ve tried again and again, but nothing seems to stick. Mike knows that feeling well. Mike’s alcohol addiction eventually cost him his marriage, his business, his relationship with his kids, and nearly everything he had. He went through treatment multiple times, tried AA, and even put together years of sobriety, only to find himself drinking again. Mike knew a lot about recovery. The problem wasn’t knowing what to do. It was putting what he knew into action. In this episode, Mike shares what finally changed, why community became such an important part of his recovery, and how he rebuilt his life after years of alcohol addiction and relapse.
