Growth Is Our Mandate
Manage episode 179398476 series 31584
Twenty years ago I was a hope to die alcoholic — lost and alone.
Despite achieving sobriety, ten years ago I remained lost — overweight, depressed and utterly rudderless.
Five years ago this week, I published a book about how I found my way out. A spiritual journey that entailed extreme faith and relentless persistence called Finding Ultra.
Today I celebrate the journey of my rebirth — and pause to honor this five year landmark — by taking a look back.
Because the growth I have been blessed to experience isn't mine to covet. It's a choice available to all.
So today, Julie asks the questions. And I answer them.
I sincerely hope you enjoy the exchange.
Peace + Plants,
Rich
