Hey friend — this is Kevin's story: messy, real, and quietly powerful. He’s a lawyer who’s walked in and out of AA rooms over the years, crashed cars, lost jobs and marriages, and finally found sobriety more than once. He’s honest about relapses, the compulsion that still whispers at the edges, and how the program and a caring sponsor nudged him back toward a life he actually wants.

Kevin talks about the little things that reveal character — anger over tape while wrapping gifts, the humiliation of blackouts, and the surprising strength of saying, “I'm powerless.” He shares how serving others, staying connected to meetings, and leaning on his wife and sponsor helped him rebuild when he drifted away. He doesn’t pretend he’s perfect — he’s trying, one day at a time.

If you’re curious about AA, searching for encouragement after a relapse, or just want a candid conversation about recovery’s ups and downs, Kevin’s talk feels like a friend telling you straight — honest, a little funny, and full of heart.
