In this episode, I reconnect with two guests, Dave G and Les, from the Sober Motivation Community. Dave G shares his journey to becoming 2056 days sober, detailing his struggles with alcohol and its impact on his life and family. He reflects on how sharing his story has been cathartic and has helped others. Les, who has been sober since 1981, discusses his journey from being a daily blackout drinker to finding a sense of belonging in the sobriety community. He emphasizes the importance of continuous progress and learning in maintaining long-term sobriety.
