E82: It Took Sobriety for Ryan M to Participate in Life

Send us a Text Message. Ryan M has made recovery a huge part of his life.  He didn't get sober, he got involved.  Ryan has been part of the service culture of AA from his entire time getting sober (March 2013).  Coming into the program in his early 30's, he was attracted to the younger people in his 12 step group and got involved the the Young People in AA organizations.  If you go to a service group in Ryan's area, chances are you will run into him.

It was not always like that.  During his drinking career, Ryan isolated.  He started out being part of the crowd and as his drinking got worse, he got older and his friends moved on, his only companions were TV shows and movies.  Ryan lived vicariously through the shows he watched, never really engaging with life.  

At Ryan's lowest, he was arrested at his parent's home, while picking up dog poop.  And like many of us who put down the bottle, he was able to change into something beyond his wildest dreams.

Join us for this inspiring story of recovery and service from our friend Ryan M.
