Imagine walking a mile in the shoes of a man who's had a turbulent journey through addiction and recovery. That's the experience we bring to you today. Join us as we sit down with our guest, Alan, a man who transitioned from a simple life in Minneapolis to a complicated one in Brooklyn, New York. You'll hear about his childhood, the culture shock of college life, and the introduction to alcohol that would become a life-altering addiction.

Alan's path was far from smooth. He shares about the dual life he lived, the hidden alcoholism, and how his fear and jealousy led him to extremes. His life spiraled out of control, affecting his relationships and leading to a painful divorce. Alan's story takes a turn when a friend introduces him to a 12-step program. You'll learn about the unpredictable surprises he encountered along the way, like his brother's humorous approach to recovery and the unexpected spiritual experiences that changed his perspective.

But the journey doesn't end there. Alan's story of recovery, of rebuilding relationships, and facing the fears that once held him captive is nothing short of inspiring. He speaks of the importance of a supportive network, the courage to confront his feelings head-on, and the profound relief he found on the other side of addiction. A tale of transformation, redemption, and the human spirit, this episode is one you won't want to miss.
