How to Commit to the Path of Sobriety | Rich Roll

Today is my 3rd day free of alcohol. The Bible says "do not despise the day of small beginnings." It's a start!

Nothing about committing to sobriety. Just a story.

This content is genuinely superb. I absorbed a book with a parallel theme that redirected my life path. "A Life Unplugged: Reclaiming Reality in a Digital Age" by Theodore Blaze

why do you have toothbrushes in your ears in a studio?

I went beyond sober and awakened after seeing Mama's spirit in the light, whose womb crowned me life. Now I know I was not born in sin, I quit acting out in sin. No one can wash your sin's away but you by making a change. Truth set me free from that steely knife and the lie in Jesus I once believed. I starved out that beast 😉😜

Just starting my journey I’m scared I’ll keep failing but I need this to survive. Praying 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

holy shit, i literally had the two DUIs in A row too. this hits home

It took me 3 years from the moment I realized I had a big problem. It's possible. ❤

This is Incredibly important work Tim and Rich ❤❤

What is a DUI? I'm in UK and herd of it.

She left me today bc I can’t stay sober she is perfect. She gave me chance and chance again . I’ll see u someday again Alyssa 😢😢

2 days…ashamed of my relapse but I am looking forward to getting back to it.

For me it’s not addiction. I don’t feel the need to have booze. I’m just stuck in routine. It’s Friday night, oh it’s a Saturday night, it’s Sunday so I’ll have some as i have work tomorrow etc etc

34 years sober. “How to commit to the path of sobriety?” Drink/use until your life is so f*cked up that there are only two choices left….sobriety or death.

Cool video,,,but like so many other stories, Rich Roll had the financial resources to get the help he needed. Most people aren’t that fortunate,,,,,AND, federal and state programs are a complete joke!!!!! They don’t care about the individuals in the program,,,they are nothing more than a money grab for politicians.

Thanks ❤

37 days sober today thanks to my Higher Power.

Still here Tim, rooting for you and all your guests and fans

is he listening to a different podcast at the same time as being interviewed on this one?

hilarious that the ad for this video was for Orchard Cider

He's 56, he looks a lot younger. No alcohol.

after yesrs of using i managed to get sober for 70 days, then relapesed and used for 6 months, then got sober for 40 days then relapsed for a month then got sober for 24 days then relapsed again yesturday... its a hard road to take, i guess theres progress because i keep trying and getting sober faster after every relapse 🤷‍♂️

Stupid nam3 for the video

I find if I keep to positive attitude every day it is easy and also I have a very interesting Hobby Model Railway’s stops my mind from thinking about Drinking I am being sober for going on 6 years now Bill

36 been made homeless through alcohol, being sick every morning I can't go on living this painful life

This guy could go by Rick Roll if he wanted

Everything he said is my exact experience at 41 minus the DUI and losing my job. So many days I missed worked due to being hung over. Letting my family down daily. Feeling like hell on a daily all trying to medicate my childhood trauma and any other depressing events along the way. I ruined my son’s birthday with my Alcoholism and woke up the next morning with blood in my mouth. This is the day April 30th I said I’m done. I cried and cried thinking of all the disappointment I have caused myself and my family and my friends. Zero recollection of what and said and did the night before. Too many nights waking up in the care of other peoples homes, cars etc. my rock bottom happened and I didn’t stop drinking. I thought to myself I’ll just manage it. Black out after black out I didn’t manage anything. Woke up after a mild event in my historic patterns and said today is the day. I will not drink anything ever again. I can’t control it and I’m not happy and everyone has had to hold so much space for me and tolerate my behavior and even try to minimize it to comfort me. Im only 8 days sober and I know this will be a journey. I’m just so thankful and looking forward to the new person I always wanted to be ❤

You lose people too when going on this journey

Thanks for sharing your story, there's always someone else out there that goes through far worse experiences than we do, makes you feel more human and helps process your own alcohol problems and regrets. 👍

What do you do if your Mrs loves to drink!

4 months sober and never going back 💗

Love Rich Roll! Such an inspiration ❤

Courage, resilience and higher power 👊🏼♥️🙏🏼

1 hr sober

Interesting to those of us who consume a lot of alcohol.

I can go to the bar or dope house to try to impress unimpressive people, or go to NA, AA or healthy places where I dont need to impress very impressive people. Recovery for life.

Drinking from age 16 to 65,been through the whole gambit. Too painful to remember. Made the final decision to quit. Did just that, at the age of 65.Guess it was that or l was on the final downward track.
Now aged 93,and never looked back. In perfect health, no medication.
