Send us Fan MailUFC legend Mark “The Hammer” Coleman joins Tales From The Corps for an open conversation about alcoholism, sobriety, recovery, and rebuilding his life after addiction.At the time of this conversation, Mark was more than two years sober and joined us on National Sober Day to talk about the years alcohol controlled his life, the damage it caused, and what ultimately pushed him toward making a change.Mark discusses the role friends, support, discipline, patience, and faith played in his recovery and why accepting help became an important part of getting sober. He reflects on the difference between fighting inside a cage and confronting a problem that couldn't be beaten through toughness alone.The conversation also explores the stigma surrounding addiction and recovery, why people struggling with alcohol can resist asking for help, and how speaking openly about sobriety can make it easier for someone else to admit they're struggling.Co-host Adam Gray also shares his own perspective during the conversation as Mark and the crew discuss maintaining structure, staying active, and continuing to move forward when life gets difficult.This isn't a story about winning every day. It's a conversation about alcoholism, accountability, recovery, and continuing to choose sobriety one day at a time.Featuring: 🥊 Mark “The Hammer” Coleman — UFC Legend & UFC Hall of FamerTALES FROM THE CORPS Real stories.
