In this heartfelt episode, we sit down with Chris to explore the harrowing yet inspiring journey that led him to sobriety. For much of his life, Chris cycled in and out of jails and institutions, caught in the relentless grip of addiction. Just over seven years ago, he reached a point of total surrender—an act that would change his life forever.
Today, Chris is a proud husband and father to a beautiful daughter, living a life he once thought impossible. He takes us through the darkest chapters of his past, detailing the pain and consequences of his addiction, and shares the pivotal moment that finally pushed him to seek help.
Chris now dedicates his life to serving others, working with addicts daily to guide them toward recovery. He explains why helping others is not just part of his journey but a key to maintaining his own sobriety. This conversation dives deep into the realities of addiction, the power of surrender, and the hope that recovery offers—even for those who feel like all is lost.
