Sober Dad Peace

Welcome to the very first episode of Sober Dad Peace.In this raw and honest debut, I share my personal story — the real rock bottom that finally got me sober, what the early days of recovery actually felt like (the sweats, shakes, boredom, and heavy guilt), and where I’m at now after 280+ days — including the “something’s missing” phase I’m still navigating.I also open up about dad guilt, especially the years I missed with my daughters, and how I’m learning to show up better even when things still feel messy.I close the episode with The Rest of the Recovery — a powerful reminder that what looks like the end can actually be the beginning.No lectures. No shame. Just real talk from one sober dad figuring out fatherhood.If you’re a dad trying to stay sober, or just need to know you’re not alone, this episode is for you.
