In this episode, Robert tells of his 37-year journey to recovery. Robert shares his feelings of “being an almost” until he meets King Alcohol. Despite the ups and downs of his life, Robert would find the rooms of Alcoholics Anonymous and he would never be the same.
Sharing our experience, strength and hope is how we all learn to live the sober way of life. Robert shares his story from a hopeless alcoholic to a recovered person.
Alcoholism is a family disease. More often than not, It is necessary for both the co-dependent and the addict to seek a path to wellness. Using the tools from two different, yet similar, plans of recovery both parties begin a recovery journey. Couples are families that don’t choose this path will not survive or be happy.
Throughout my life, I heard many things regarding my potential. The word BUT was used as part of my description when I was mentioned. People would often say how wonderful they thought I could be, BUT….. There was always an exclusion of my potential. There was always a conjunction between how I wanted to be seen and how I was seen. This lasted until I first came into recovery when I was 32. It was then that I learned to Drop the But. My journey has been to be as I hoped to be seen, without the word BUT playing a role in that description. I hope you enjoy today’s podcast. Be blessed
The difference between those who get sober and those who live a life of sobriety is Transformation. When we look at the emotional, mental, spiritual and the physical one is no more important than the other. Having said a well-rounded Transformation is REQUIRED for lifelong recovery. Today’s conversation with Alex covers exactly that.
In the beginning, all most of us can do is hang onto our recovery chair. After we are sober for a while, we begin to see the areas of our life that went neglected. For most of us, the physical side of our health went ignored. A well-rounded sober journey requires to I become fit in all aspects of my life. This conversation with Leandro is what this podcast is about.
As you have heard me say, there are four elements or dimensions to our personal recovery. Those four dimensions are, emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical. Today we are so fortunate to have my dear friend and fitness instructor in the studio, Vera.

We will also discuss the empowerment it brings on an emotional, spiritual, and mental level while satisfying physical fitness needs. I hope you enjoy this podcast.
One of the most important things any of us can ever understand about substance abuse addiction and behavioral destruction is the amount of selfishness and self-centeredness that is at the core of the addiction. One of the reasons so many people stay in addiction, is not because they enjoy the negativity.

Life is meant to be lived according to a set of rules. I used to conduct my life as a very selfish and self-centered person. Within that self-centeredness, I decided that I would live however I would want to live, and life would have to accommodate me. That is not how it works at all.
As a people of recovery, we have agreed to go on a journey that is filled with challenges and opportunities. There are times when these realities of life seem overwhelming and difficult to understand or accept. We have a human response to embrace what makes us feel good and reject that which feels terrible. Gandhi said “One cannot do right in one department of life while attempting to wrong in another department. Life is one indivisible whole.” The point is, there will be times when the journey is filled with goodness and at other times sadness will take hold. Either way, it is the same journey
