Peter G. from Raleigh, NC speaking at the 2005 Connecticut State Conference of Young People in AA in Southbury, CT - November 26th 2005

Peter’s story is a powerful reminder of how alcoholism can strip a person down to nothing—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—yet still open the door to profound transformation when the gift of recovery is finally accepted. From a brilliant Yale student whose drinking spiraled into hospitals, arrests, and homelessness, to a man with over 25 years sober, a home group, a sponsor, a purpose, and the ability to help others, his journey shows how honesty, willingness, and the 12 steps can rebuild a life from the inside out. His accomplishments—returning to school, becoming a sponsor, traveling the world sober, and learning to live with true freedom—stand as living proof that this program works when nothing else can.
