After a blacked-out date night Ray embarked on his sober journey.

In this episode, Ray discusses his experience of sobriety and how his journey has reshaped his life. Ray, who was born and raised in Montreal, Canada, shared about his childhood marked by his parents' divorce and recalled the instability and confusion during those years.  Ray tracks his alcohol use back to his early teens when he started hanging out more outside of the house. A series of various life experiences, including moving frequently, falling out of university twice, and flirting with danger in Ethiopia, culminated in a 'come to Jesus moment' after a blacked-out date night, inducing Ray to seriously address his issues with alcohol. He sought professional help, leaned into therapeutic healing, and eventually launched his podcast, 'Stack N Days, to share stories of other people of color battling and overcoming addiction. ---------------Donate to support the Podcast here: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/sobermotivationFollow Ray on Instagram/ Podcast info: https://www.instagram.com/stackndays/New SoberBuddy Platform link: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/sobermotivationFollow (me) Sober Motivation on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sobermotivation/Sober Motivation Mobile App: https://apps.apple.com/app/sober-motivation-app/id6759266291Sober Motivation Website: https://www.sobermotivation.comSupport the Podcast: https://buymeacoffee.com/sobermotivationContact me anytime: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
