This week, we sit down with Jaden, who has a year and a half sober and a story rooted in resilience, identity, and discovering who she truly is without substances. Jaden shares that this is her first real attempt at sobriety. Before finding recovery, she tried to do it on her own — with her longest stretch lasting only a few weeks. Without knowledge of recovery or support, the cycle always pulled her back in. For nearly a decade, she was involved in sex work, with meth as her drug of choice, ...

This week, we sit down with Jacob, who has two and a half years sober and a story that captures the quiet shift from doing recovery for others… to finally choosing it for yourself. Jacob opens up about a thought he carried with him early on — an “out” he had already planned. In his mind, he would stay sober for two years, and then most likely go back home, because deep down, he didn’t feel like he was doing it for himself. While he had always been social before sobriety, his first two years w...

This week, we sit down with Mauricio, who has two years of sobriety and a story that speaks to identity, resilience, and finding belonging in a world where he often felt like he didn’t fit. Originally Colombian, Mauricio grew up in South Central Los Angeles, navigating life between cultures — feeling “too white” for the Hispanic community and “too Hispanic” for everyone else. As a gay man, that sense of not belonging only deepened, shaping both his identity and his path into addiction. Mauric...

This week, we sit down with Cody, who has six and a half years sober and is navigating one of the most challenging seasons of his recovery — going through a divorce from his husband. Cody’s story begins long before sobriety stuck. He knew he had a problem as early as high school, and at 19, he attended his first AA meeting after a friend invited him. It was in a garage, filled with smoke, and when newcomers were asked to share, Cody felt overwhelmed. He broke down crying, admitting he was ter...

This week, we sit down with Courtney, who has two and a half years sober and a story that speaks to the exhausting cycle of trying, relapsing, and believing you might never actually make it out. Originally from Texas, Courtney moved to California 13 years ago in search of sobriety — a journey that took her through treatment an estimated 26 times. Courtney had managed to reach one year sober twice before, only to relapse shortly after each milestone. Looking back, she realizes much of her sobr...

This week, we sit down with Maggy, who celebrated 12 years sober on November 9th. Originally from Illinois and now rooted in recovery after getting sober in New York City, Maggy’s story is one of radical honesty, humility, and learning how to rebuild herself again and again — even with years of sobriety behind her. Maggy shares about her early attempts at sobriety, including a period where she believed she was sober — while still snorting Adderall. It wasn’t until she heard someone share abou...

This week, we sit down with Vinny — a man coming up on three years sober whose story cuts straight to the core of what addiction really is: self-centered fear, emotional avoidance, and the slow erosion of everything that matters. Vinny is brutally honest about the fact that he didn’t become selfish after he started using — he was already that way. Long before meth entered the picture, he was chasing what he wanted, when he wanted it. He married and had children not out of love, but out of des...

This week, we sit down with Charlene — a woman whose story proves that staying sober isn’t the same as living sober. With over 7½ years of recovery today, Charlene opens up about the two very different versions of sobriety she’s experienced — one driven by fear, and the other rooted in freedom, connection, and purpose. Before this chapter of her life, Charlene had 22 months sober — and it was nothing short of a miracle she made it that far. She originally entered treatment for just 30 days, b...

This week, we sit down with Sarah — who will celebrate five years sober this March — and whose story is a powerful reminder that sometimes it’s not the hundredth attempt that saves us… it’s the first honest one. Sarah had collected plenty of 30-, 60-, and 90-day chips over the years — but none of them were real. She wasn’t staying sober, she was just resetting the clock. Then, something changed. When she finally made it to an honest 90 days, it “just stuck” — and it became the foundation for ...

In this episode, we sit down with Amanda — whose recovery journey began not in a meeting room, but under the brightest spotlight imaginable. After leaving her hometown in New Jersey in the depths of addiction, Amanda found herself on Dr. Phil alongside her two sisters. What followed was an experience few people can even imagine: being flown out with her family, walking onto a stage, and seeing her parents sitting there — then having to watch herself and her sisters use drugs on national telev...

This week, we sit down with Kelly — whose story is raw, honest, and deeply relatable for anyone who’s ever tried to get sober before they were truly ready. With a sobriety date of 2/16/21, Kelly shares what changed between her first attempt at recovery at 26 and the version of sobriety she’s living today. Kelly’s early substance use leaned more toward drugs than alcohol. Growing up in a family marked by alcoholism, she thought drinking was “yucky” — until a relapse led her straight into it. I...

In this episode, we sit down with Paul — a member of Jimmy’s home group who is approaching seven years sober and living proof that real change often begins with a single boundary you can’t talk your way around. Just two weeks before Paul got sober, his brother passed away from complications related to HIV. While he didn’t die directly from drugs or alcohol, he was in active addiction and not taking care of himself — and he was also the person who first introduced Paul to Alcoholics Anonymous....

Approaching two years sober on February 24, Courtney shares what changed between her first attempt at recovery and the one that finally transformed her life. Courtney was first introduced to the rooms after a DUI in 2015, but for years, she stayed on the outside looking in. She always felt different — separate — convinced the program w...

This week, it’s just Jimmy and Breezy — and we’re introducing a brand-new recurring feature we’re calling No Shots, Just Thoughts. These episodes are exactly what they sound like: honest conversations, no guest, no filter, and no agenda other than answering the questions you keep asking. And as long as you keep sending them in, we’ll keep showing up. For our very first No Shots, Just Thoughts episode, we tackle one of the most common (and quietly painful) topics in early recovery: Is the prog...

This week, we sit down with Hunter — a military kid who grew up learning how to blend in anywhere, yet spent years feeling like he didn’t belong anywhere at all. Now approaching two years sober, Hunter’s story is one of ego, honesty, spiritual awakening, and the powerful shift that happens when you stop performing recovery… and actually start living it. Growing up constantly on the move, Hunter perfected the art of being a chameleon. His dad was a heavy drinker, and the first time Hunter dran...

This week, we sit down with Miss Erica — our first trans guest on the podcast — whose story is one of courage, survival, and the relentless pursuit of a life worth living. She has 11 years sober, relapsed, and now celebrates 9 years sober, and her journey shows that even after a decade in recovery, the disease of addiction can still strike — and still be overcome. Erica’s first stint in sobriety lasted three years before she stopped working a program. Remarkably, she held onto her sobriety al...

This week, we sit down with Brett — a man whose story shows that sobriety isn’t built on self-knowledge or “doing recovery perfectly,” but on brutal honesty, spiritual awakening, and the willingness to try again after the fall. Brett will celebrate 8 years sober this January, but his journey wasn’t a straight line. Before this chapter of long-term recovery, he had 22 months sober, doing all the “right things” on paper — meetings, program work, connection. And yet, a single unguarded thought —...

In this week’s episode, we sit down with Marcus — who recently celebrated eight years clean and sober on October 29th. Standing 6'7" with a quiet strength and deep insight, Marcus shares how his path from chaos and paranoia to inner peace has reshaped how he sees sobriety, self-compassion, and spirituality. Before recovery, Marcus was driving a beat-up van with expired tags, working hospice while high, and numbing his pain through constant escape. It wasn’t until his sober father called ...

In this week’s episode, we dive deep with Christian, whose story takes us from military discipline to total chaos — and finally, into recovery and grace. Christian once did so much ecstasy that he was literally kicked out of the Air Force. What followed was two decades of chaos — cocaine, crack, meth, heroin, and a long list of failed attempts to get clean through everything except AA. College couldn’t save him. Fraternity interventions couldn’t save him. Even outdoor rehab didn’t work. But d...

This week, we sit down with Emily — whose journey shows that sometimes the turning point isn't a dramatic bottom, but simply reaching a place where you can’t run from yourself anymore. Emily came to California from Virginia wrecked by heroin addiction and years of toxic relationships. With nowhere left to turn, she took a desperate flight west with her ex-husband — and by sheer grace, crossed paths with Gene, a man from AA who would become her sponsor, mentor, and anchor. Gene welcomed her in...
