Nick had tried sobriety before but struggled to be honest with himself and others. Changing that would change everything.

Nick joins the show; he has been sober for 10 years and shares his journey from substance abuse to sobriety. Nick describes his childhood marked by his parents' separation, their struggle with substance abuse, and his own progression into alcoholism and drug use. He ventures into various attempts at sobriety that he was unable to maintain. Nick hit many bottoms, including losing everything, and after being charged with a felony, he had a choice to make. Along the path, Nick tried many methods of achieving sobriety, but there was always one thing holding him back from the change he desired so much. This is Nick’s story on the Sober Motivation podcast.
