In this episode, we meet Joe. Growing up, Joe had no shortage of traumatic experiences and never talked about the feelings or thoughts associated with these events. He found a level of acceptance through drinking alcohol and consuming drugs. Going through the motions in life, Joe found himself covering up his emotions with alcohol time and time again. Sobriety was not given much attention, and drinking alcohol just felt so normal. After many ups and downs, Joe had a 10-day break from alcohol and decided to keep it going. Today, Joe celebrates 9 months of sobriety and this is Joe’s story on the sober motivation podcast. -------------- Follow Joe on IG: https://www.instagram.com/mightyjoemt/ Follow Sober Motivation on IG: https://www.instagram.com/sobermotivation/ More info on SoberLink: www.soberlink.com/recover Sober Motivation App on Apple App Store HERE Sober Motivation App on Google Play Store HERE Sober Motivation Website: https://www.sobermotivation.com Support the Podcast: https://buymeacoffee.com/sobermotivation Contact me anytime: brad@sobermotivation.com Hosted on Acast.
