Mike Jolley (SOAR) joins Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley to talk about being introduced to alcohol at the age of 5 after drinking his father's beer, how he became entrenched in the party scene in his later teenage years, and how his addiction to alcohol flourished as he started to get older in life.

Then we talk about how Mike's personal life began to deteriorate due to his alcohol abuse, how he found himself lying on the floor committing suicide after failing to overcome his addiction, and his choice to pursue a higher power to help him combat his addictive behaviors.

Mike also shares his approach to ultimately living a life of recovery, the joy he finds in helping others overcome their own addictive behaviors to live a sober lifestyle, and how fitness has become a staple in recovery.
