Podcasts about Rock Bottom

Alcohol addiction doesn't always look like rock bottom.In this episode of the Sober Motivation Podcast, John shares his story after more than 20 years of drinking and drug use — and the painful realizations that came when he finally got sober.From the outside, his life looked normal. No arrests. No dramatic collapse.But inside, alcohol was shaping decisions, regrets, and memories he would carry for decades.This conversation explores grief, shame, regret, and the realization that some of the biggest consequences of alcohol aren't the ones people see.They're the ones we carry internally.Today John is over seven months sober and sharing his story to help others realize they don't need to hit rock bottom to question their drinking.John on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withorwithoutbacon/Sober Motivation Community: https://sobermotivation.mn.co/Support the Podcast: https://buymeacoffee.com/sobermotivationContact me anytime: brad@sobermotivation.com Hosted on Acast.

What role does spirituality play in recovery, and is it possible to stay sober for decades without it? Today, I sit down with Nigel to explore alcoholism, ego, fear, and the deeper search for meaning that often lies beneath addiction.At 38, Nigel had everything most people would call success - a family, a good job, a comfortable life. But inside, he was empty. Alcohol had been part of his life since he was twelve, and by his late thirties, it had taken away everything it once gave him.What followed was a complete shift in how he saw himself, addiction, and the world around him. He came to believe that the voice in his head - his ego - was at the root of his drinking, and that freedom came from learning to live beyond it.Nigel has been sober for over 30 years, but his recovery was never just about stopping drinking. For him, it became a profound shift in how he experiences life, identity, and connection. He describes alcoholism as an extreme form of ego, rooted in separation, self-hatred, and what he calls “suicide by instalments.” Looking back, Nigel recognises that much of his drinking arose from an early sense that life had no intrinsic meaning, a feeling he began noticing even as a child.In this conversation, Nigel takes us beyond conventional recovery talk. He explains how ego and alcoholism are intertwined, why active drinking is a slow form of self-destruction, and how the mind can construct bleak narratives to justify addictive behaviour. He explores the difference between illusion and reality, revealing why joy is always present even beneath fear. Viewing recovery through a spiritual lens, Nigel shows how seeing ourselves as connected to God - or a higher source - can reshape how we live, how we relate to others, and how we understand ourselves. He introduces a non-dual perspective, highlighting our inherent divinity, equality, and connection to all, and he challenges common fears around death, suggesting that embracing the eternal present can bring lasting peace.Whether or not you share his spiritual perspective, this episode offers a profound and thought-provoking look at what it takes to recover, find meaning, and stay sober long-term. It's an episode that will make you rethink fear, joy, and the true nature of connection.Today you will learn of what happens when you stop chasing happiness out there… and start looking for it within.

In this episode, I had a pre-conversation with Moe Choice about how he hit rock bottom, twice, and then bouncing back. We talked about overcoming adversities, pain and suffering that we face based on society standards, and what other's think or say about us. We also talked about how we put everyone before ourselves, lowering ourselves, letting go of our dreams just to focus on everyone else's wants and needs. How no matter what we go through, we have to make sure that what choice, decision, action and behavior are what is best for your health and wellness internally and externally, finances, and the things that you have. #health #wellness What he learned from that and is now teaching others as far as how to overcome adversity. We talked about the education system as far as why we are not taught critical thinking, common sense, common judgement, decision making, dealing with trauma, adversities, pain rejection, suffering, and abuse. The walking contradictions when it comes to society standards, health and wellness, marriage, success, and what is required to be happy. It was a great conversation, and I am looking forwarded to doing the actual conversation soon.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/a-happier-you-leads-to-a-healthier-you--5161886/support.

Growing up in Manhattan, Michael turned to drugs and alcohol at a young age while trying to cope with childhood trauma and instability at home.

After hitting rock bottom and being fired by a restaurant owner he saw as a father figure, he finally made the life-changing decision to ask for help.With the guidance of his mentor Marcus, Michael adopted a disciplined plan centered on faith, AA, Muay Thai training, healthy habits, and personal accountability principles he still follows today.

Addiction tells one of its most convincing lies long before recovery even begins: that the problem will never leave you. In this next thought, Oliver Mason challenges the fear that sobriety means a lifetime of daily battle. If you've ever wondered whether recovery actually gets easier - or whether the voice in your head ever quietens - this conversation cuts straight through myth, shame and misconception to reveal what really happens when someone commits to change.This explores the moment many people get stuck: recognising there is a problem but believing it will never go away. Oliver reframes addiction not as an unbeatable enemy but as something that loses power when recovery is properly supported. From therapy and structured programmes to peer fellowship communities we examine why connection - not willpower - changes outcomes.Using vivid storytelling, Oliver dismantles the fantasy many people secretly hope for: that addiction can simply be eliminated overnight, metaphorically dragged down an alleyway and thrown into the River Thames forever. Instead, he explains how long-term recovery works in reality. The obsession doesn't vanish dramatically; it becomes distant, contained and manageable. For those early in sobriety who feel overwhelmed, this perspective offers reassurance that the intensity of the early days does not last forever.Listen or watch THE FULL EPISODESpotify - https://bit.ly/3RmMvu8YouTube - https://bit.ly/3NuVwzUApple - https://apple.co/3PajZvQAbout the “THOUGHT” series -Every other Monday at 5 PM, I'll bring you a quick ‘thought'—a powerful moment from previous episodes designed to kickstart your week with insight, motivation, and connection.

Showing Up to AA Completely Drunk with Ryan Kennedy | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this powerful episode, Ryan Kennedy opens up about his raw journey from the depths of addiction to 16 months of hard-earned sobriety. From hitting true rock bottom—complete with a brutal fall down concrete stairs after a seizure, hiding wine bags under his bed during relapses, terrifying cocaine-induced psychosis where he believed his family was hiding in the house for a week, and the heartbreaking loss of his sister to a fentanyl overdose—to finding hope through rehab, AA meetings, daily acts of service like driving his 90-year-old AA buddy, and even launching his own podcast "Rock Bottom with Ryan," this conversation is packed with honest, relatable stories of struggle, relapse realities ("every relapse is worse than the last"), hallucinations (Drake's "Started From the Bottom" looping endlessly on a 30-day bender), and ultimate redemption. Ryan shares how a nun from his childhood school prayed over him in the hospital, how his mom got sober alongside him and now they chair meetings together, and why rehab ultimately saved his life. If you're battling addiction, supporting a loved one, or just need inspiration that rock bottom can lead to real change, this episode is a must-watch.

In this episode of the Under the Hood Podcast by Chariots for Hope, Mike Lubin sits down with Dr. Mark Cade to share a raw and powerful story of success, emptiness, brokenness, and ultimate redemption through Jesus Christ.From a small-town upbringing in South Dakota to becoming a successful anesthesiologist, Mark appeared to have everything the world defines as success: a thriving career, financial stability, and a family. But beneath the surface, he struggled with deep emptiness, addiction, and a life chasing fulfillment that never came.After hitting rock bottom and spending time incarcerated, a simple act, receiving a Bible from a chaplain, began a journey that would completely transform his life. A phone call with a former mentor led to a life-changing moment of surrender to Christ that reshaped his identity, purpose, and future.

Boomer and Gio react to Team USA's gold medal glow showing up in Washington, with Jack Hughes expected back on the ice tonight and the Devils crowd ready to explode. Then the conversation swerves to Eileen Gu, endorsements, and the whole dual citizenship debate. From there it's NFL Combine season: Aaron Glenn talks year-two growth, Joe Schoen claims he's “crushing” film, Harbaugh gives the full alignment speech, and the league keeps trying to convince itself it has quarterback answers. Plus, the Colts admit the pressure is real with Anthony Richardson. And back in New York, the Knicks get embarrassed in Cleveland, KAT disappears in the second half, Wally brings the heat, and everyone's left asking what's actually going on. Sprinkle in Dan Hurley's “adjustments are overrated” rant, St. John's chasing win No. 14, MLB's ABS challenge chaos, and yes, a bizarre fossil headline that somehow makes the show.

Derek Rishmawy and Alastair Roberts take up the problem of Christian doomerism in an age of AI development, geopolitical instability, and algorithmic anxiety — diagnosing why our moment feels uniquely threatening, then building a theology and practice of realistic hope from the Sermon on the Mount, the Psalms, eschatology, and the concrete habits (prayer, scripture, crocheting) that keep despair at bay. — Get your copy of Mere Orthodoxy's ebook, Spiritual Formation for the Family, by going to http://mereorthodoxy.com/family Mere Fidelity is a podcast from Mere Orthodoxy and is listener-supported.

In the "Forged by Fire" series, we follow David through the ultimate crucible: the transition from a hunted fugitive in the wilderness of 1 Samuel to the established King of Israel in 2 Samuel. These messages explore how God uses seasons of intense pressure, betrayal, and waiting to refine the character of His people. From the caves of Engedi to the heights of the Davidic Covenant in 2nd Samuel 7, we see that God's primary work isn't just changing our circumstances, but shaping our hearts. Join us as we learn how the "fire" of life's trials is designed not to consume us, but to forge a faith that lasts.

In this episode of Harder Than Life, Kelly Siegel sits down with addiction expert Amber Hollingsworth to explore the real roots of addiction, enabling, and family systems.

What happens when someone hits absolute rock bottom… and then God interrupts the story?Pastor and spiritual coach Brian Hall joins Billy Hallowell and Jen Lilley to share an unbelievable testimony: addiction, bankruptcy, cancer, overdose, a heart attack — and the night he says he snorted 21 lines of cocaine, cried out to God, and instantly sobered up in a moment he calls his first miracle.From there, the journey only gets wilder: Brian says he went from brand-new believer to ministry almost overnight, later leading a major nonprofit and church… until a dream from God told him to walk away. After resisting, he describes a series of jaw-dropping wake-up calls.Today, Brian says God has him ministering to high-profile leaders, celebrities, athletes, and powerful decision-makers — and he opens up about what he's witnessed behind the scenes: despair, spiritual warfare, and the hunger for something real.This episode is raw, intense, hope-filled — and a reminder that Jesus still changes lives.** Your front-row seat to the #miraculous and mysterious continues in our newsletter.

Harrison Ward, also known as Fell Foodie, drank more than 20 pints a day, smoked like a chimney, battled clinical depression in silence and reached a moment where he believed there were only two ways out. Today I sit down with the man behind the outdoor cooking phenomenon to unpack addiction, withdrawal, mental health and the decision that saved his life. Harrison shares the reality behind addiction, drinking culture and the hidden loneliness of high-masking depression. From working in pubs while drinking heavily to climbing a mountains during withdrawal, this is a raw exploration of what happens when escape stops working and honesty begins.Together they explore why alcohol can feel like medicine before it becomes a prison, how depression can quietly shape behaviour from teenage years onwards, and why many people suffer in silence long before anyone notices. Harrison speaks openly about peer pressure, shame, identity and the fear of speaking honestly about mental health, especially growing up in environments where vulnerability felt impossible.Harrison explains how sobriety allowed him to rediscover purpose through food, nature and creativity, cooking restaurant-quality meals on remote mountainsides and sharing hope with thousands online. Oliver and Harrison also discuss cravings, withdrawal, rebuilding self-worth, going public about sobriety and the practical options available for anyone struggling with alcohol or depression today. If you or someone you love is struggling, this conversation offers honesty without judgement and hope without clichés.Now, over 9 years sober, Harrison has fused his love of food with the healing power of the outdoors. He's hiking the fells of Cumbria and cooking restaurant quality meals on a simple camp stove in the mountains, and sharing his story to show others that recovery is possible.He's been featured on the BBC with Mary Berry, Channel 5's ‘Winter on the Farm', Countryfile Magazine, Men's Fitness, and more. He's a bestselling author, a keynote speaker, and a brand ambassador.

In this powerful episode, we sit down with Bushwick, Brooklyn artist Danny Cortes who recreates iconic New York City scenes, from neighborhood ice spots and subway platforms to street signs and corner culture, blending art, hip hop, nostalgia, and community into hyper detailed miniature worlds. His work has reached global stages, including sales at Sotheby’s for $3,000, $6,000, and even $7,000. But his story is deeper than the art. Divorced, jobless, on probation, and back living with his mother during the pandemic, Danny found himself at rock bottom. It was there, in that small Brooklyn apartment, that he tapped into his true calling, miniature art. With encouragement from his mother and the love of a woman who helped him see his worth, he began rebuilding his life one piece at a time Danny proves that even when you feel like you have nothing left, one small step can change everything. For him, it was one miniature at a time. This conversation is about redemption, culture, Brooklyn resilience, and believing in yourself when no one else does.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At 12, he was cutting metal in northern Italy. By 21, he was teaching DMG’s own technicians how to use their machines. At 47, he owns the whole company he first walked into just to set up a machine. Federico Veneziano is the owner of BoldX Industries and an old friend of mine. His story requires two episodes. This is part one: the serendipity, the winding path through shops and countries and setbacks. Part two, we will get into what he’s building now. But first, this is how he got here.

Interview Highlights Teaching the Experts Federico grew up about 60 miles northwest of Milan in a small town called Omegna. He started working in a machine shop at 12 years old. By his early twenties, he had developed deep expertise on Siemens controls, particularly the 840D. When DMG sent technicians to train him on a new machine, they were still new on the control themselves. He ended up helping them. That information got back to DMG headquarters, and they offered him a job. He traveled the world servicing CNC machines. Eventually he proposed an ambitious plan: working three years in the U.S., two years in Germany, three years in China. They agreed. He arrived in the US on August 4, 2004. His English wasn’t great, nobody had booked him a hotel, and he didn’t have a credit card. The first day was rough but he figured it out. The Job That Changed Everything One of Federico's first projects was at American Micro in Batavia, Ohio. The company had been founded in 1957 by a Swiss immigrant. He spent a year there setting up a GMC 35, then Gildemeister's CNC multi-spindle, for a fuel connector job that required gun drilling on a multi-spindle. It had never been done before. The project required developing new spindles and tooling just to make the part work. During that year, he built relationships with the team. When things went wrong with DMG around Christmas 2005, he walked away. He had no plan. It was ten days before the holiday. Then American Micro called. He joined as a process engineer and spent the next two decades working through every department: quality, supply chain, sales, engineering. He became close with the owners, particularly René, one of the founding family’s sons. He bought in as a minority owner, eventually reaching about 14%. He kept that ownership quiet for years. Most people at the company didn’t even know. From Rock Bottom to Owner Then everything hit at once. René passed away. Federico’s father passed within a couple of months. Personal problems piled on. By his own words, it was rock bottom. American Micro was second-generation family owned with no clear succession plan. Federico had tried to buy the company twice before. This time, he decided it was now or never. How does someone go from 14% to sole owner of a company doing $20-25 million in revenue? Federico says it was an amicable transaction where he leveraged multiple things he’d built over the years. He doesn’t go into every detail. But somehow the deal got done. In part two, we’ll get into what he’s building now. BoldX Industries has 125 employees, and Federico says they’re forecasting significant growth. He’s also got a book trilogy coming out. But that’s the next chapter. This one is about how he got here. Question: What twist of fate brought you to your current career?

Welcome to a deeply moving love story of redemption, faith, and partnership in this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light with Dylan Gemelli and his wife, Queenie. A God-first couple united by humility, devotion, and teamwork, they join me for an honest conversation about healing the past, choosing integrity, and building a marriage rooted in truth… and humor.  Dylan shares his journey from prison, addiction, and self-destruction to faith, service, and purpose, and how meeting Queenie during the lowest chapter of his life became a turning point. Queenie reflects on seeing his heart beyond his past, receiving his truth with compassion, and choosing love without judgment. Together, they open up about what it means to place God first in marriage, not as religion, but as daily practice. Prayer, honesty, forgiveness, and humility became the foundation that allowed trust, safety, and joy to grow. Their relationship is a living example of how two imperfect people can evolve together when pride softens, responsibility leads and hearts open.  We also explore how complementary differences strengthen a relationship, how playfulness and laughter coexist with devotion, and how a healthy partnership fuels purpose, leadership, and service in the world. We also talk about: -Redemption, responsibility, and owning your past without shame -Choosing honesty early and letting truth build trust -God-first marriage as daily practice, not performance -Forgiveness, humility, and resolving conflict quickly -Complementary differences as gifts for growth -Play, laughter, and joy as spiritual practices -How love and partnership fuel purpose and leadership This episode is a reminder that your past does not disqualify you, ever. And that faith can be lived through love, and that when two people choose truth, humility, and God first, something deeply beautiful becomes possible.  Be sure to watch Dylan's Podcast, #1 in health and fitness and alternative health, The Dylan Gemelli Podcast, where I will also be featured as a Guest this year!  https://dylangemelli.com/ ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!
