AA Speaker - Clint H. - Corpus Christi, TX - 2005

Clint H. from Denver, CO speaking at the 51st Coastal Bend Jamboree in Corpus Christi, TX - January 21st 2005 Visit our website - Sober-Sunrise.com Clint H. speaks powerfully about his 38 years of sobriety, tracing his journey from a promising Marine Corps officer undone by alcoholism to a man transformed through AA’s fellowship and the Twelve Steps. He shares how repeated relapses, homelessness, failed marriages, and deep family wounds, including childhood trauma, marked his path before a bail bondsman’s unexpected act led him to the Glendale AA club, where he finally accepted he drank “no matter what.” That surrender opens the door to genuine recovery, law school, a meaningful legal career, and a renewed spiritual life. He emphasizes the miracle of sudden sobriety, the need for ongoing spiritual growth over power substitutes, and the healing of old relationships, including making amends to his mother. Even through later life challenges like cancer and loss of intimacy, Clint finds joy, purpose, and love by living in service to others, grounded in the principles that save his life.
