Life's dynamism often throws curveballs that test even the most grounded among us, but when you're tethered to the anchor of addiction recovery, those tests take on deeper significance. Joined by Steven T Ginsburg from Restore Detox Centers, we unpack the multifaceted journey of staying sober—whether we're riding the high of a good day or grappling with the urge to fall back into old patterns during life's harsher moments. We share our own experiences and the profound realization that facing life head-on, without the haze of substances, only magnifies the richness of our human experience.

Navigating the turbulent waters of life's inevitable losses while holding firmly to sobriety can feel like an odyssey in its own right. In a candid reflection, I reveal the pain of losing my mother and how sobriety served as a lighthouse amidst the storm, guiding me to present strength for my family. We also contemplate how adversity often carves paths to unexpected destinations, discussing how my personal pivot from a real estate career to honoring spiritual commitments led to the genesis of this very podcast—a platform where hope and resilience echo, touching lives and encouraging those on their own path to recovery. With Steve by my side, we extend an invitation to our listeners to join us in this continual conversation, finding solace in community and spirituality amidst the ebb and flow of life's journey.
