In this episode of the Sharing Without Shame podcast, host Donna Marston welcomes Eric, the Senior Director of White Horse Recovery Centers. Eric shares his powerful journey from being the "town drunk" to becoming a respected figure in the recovery community. He opens up about his struggles with addiction and the profound turning point in his life that led him to sobriety. Eric recounts how a spiritual experience, sparked by a simple act of shoveling snow with a kitchen broom, marked the beginning of his transformation. This moment of clarity led him to re-engage with AA meetings and embrace a higher power, which he believes was crucial in his recovery.

Eric also discusses the incredible support he received from his community, which played a pivotal role in his sobriety. Despite the challenges of hitchhiking 32 miles a day for a $10-an-hour car wash job, the community rallied around him, ensuring he was never late for work and helping him stay on the path to recovery. Today, Eric is dedicated to giving back and helping others find their own paths to sobriety. He talks about his work at White Horse Recovery Centers and his passion for creating recovery housing in Northern New Hampshire, where individuals can rebuild their lives in a supportive environment. This episode is a testament to the power of community, resilience, and the unwavering belief that recovery is possible for everyone.
