Sober Motivation: Sharing Sobriety Stories

In this episode, Brad welcomes Brenden to share his story. Brenden recounts his childhood in Northeast Seattle, growing up in a loving, close-knit family, and the early influences of his father's sobriety. Diagnosed with ADD and ADHD, school was challenging for Brenden, but he found identity in sports. A series of concussions during high school led him to begin drinking. This episode dives into Brenden's battles with addiction, including alcohol and Xanax, which worsened over time. After hitting rock bottom, Brenden sought help, spending 90 days in rehab. Now sober for five years, he discusses the tools that helped him stay sober and the importance of community support. 👇 Join the Sober Motivation Community: https://sobermotivation.mn.co/ Brenden's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brendencorr/
