From Criminal Impersonation to Addiction Recovery Champion | John’s Remarkable Turnaround

  • Résumé

  • Recovery Matters Podcast Episode 160 | John shares his personal story of growing up in an upper-middle-class family with a high-functioning alcoholic father. Despite a good upbringing, John's young adulthood spiraled into addiction, particularly with alcohol and later cocaine. He recounts his first experiences with these substances and the pivotal moments that led to his criminal activities. John was eventually sentenced to 12 years in prison, an event that he views as life-saving. During his incarceration, John experienced a spiritual awakening and committed to changing his life. He became heavily involved in addiction services and recovery programming. Upon his release, he found support at CCAR, where he now gives back as a recovery coach and volunteer. John emphasizes the importance of suggestions over advice and advocates for multiple pathways to recovery.
