Summary

In this episode of the Sober Motivation Podcast, I sit down with Eric, who shares his powerful story of overcoming alcohol addiction. Eric discusses his upbringing, the impact of his mother's unexpected passing, and how his drinking spiralled out of control. Despite multiple setbacks and two DWIs, Eric's journey took a turning point when his family intervened, leading to a life-changing experience in rehab. Now three years sober, Eric talks about the support systems that have helped him— including AA and Celebrate Recovery—and how the birth of his son has become his new motivation for staying sober.
