The Best Way to Get Someone to Take You In When You're Strung Out on Drugs... Convince Them You Have Cancer! This is Peter G's Story: EP 100

I met Peter 19 years ago in an NA meeting and as he remembers it, I didn't care for him too much.  Really, it was because he talked too much... and that's not something I needed help with!   I went from being someone who was forced to go to 12 step meetings, to realizing I had a drug and alcohol problem but couldn't imaging my life without them, to wanting to be there and needing all the help I could get. Peter became my first sponsor and would go on to have the biggest impact on my adult life.  He showed me how to have fun without drug and alcohol, he introduced me to a Higher Power, he took me through the steps, showed me how to be of service and what it was like to live with integrity.  He also showed me plenty of things NOT to do as he navigated his own path through life, lol!  On the 100th episode of the Podcast, Peter shares his harrowing story of growing up in Texas in a poor farming community.  He was 1 of 7 kids born to immigrant parents and had to navigate being a minority in the south, childhood trauma, drug and alcohol addiction, homelessness, jail, and ultimately a life beyond his wildest dreams.  Enjoy this interview with Peter Gomez and Preston Moore. As we celebrate episode 100 and also, as I celebrate 19 years in recovery today, 9.10.20. I would like to encourage you to reach out to those people in your life that have made a positive impact on you and let them know how much you care about them.  I did and the conversation lasted 2 hours!!  I love you!  Connect with us in our Facebook Group here https://www.facebook.com/groups/543980706306073 Instagram @kprestonmoore Peter Gomez @pgaggie And as always, we'd love to hear from you in the form of a rating and review on Apple Podcasts. ❤️ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/high-cost-anonymity-podcast-exploring-cost-keeping/id1357105789
