The Dark Side of Alcoholism: I Lost Everything to Alcohol | Relapse in Sobriety

Listen to this episode from Rise Above with Kevin Lanning on Spotify. Robert was born into chaos—raised by a controlling mother, traumatized by his father’s suicide at 8, and conditioned to seek validation in everything but himself. After achieving 10 years sober, he relapsed and spiraled, losing his business, wife, and—most painfully—custody of his daughter. But in the ashes of devastation, Robert found God, healing, and a new identity.In this raw, unfiltered interview, Robert opens up about childhood trauma, toxic love, addiction, codependency, relapse, and redemption. His journey reminds us that it’s never too late to rebuild—and that recovery isn’t just about sobriety, it’s about coming home to yourself.👉 Subscribe for more inspiring interviews🎧 Available on all podcast platforms📲 Sponsored by OpenRecovery: Get 24/7 addiction help from your phone.#AddictionRecovery #SobrietyJourney #ChildhoodTrauma #AARecovery #Alcoholism #RiseAbovePodcast #RobertStory #MentalHealthAwareness #RelapseRecovery #FatherWound #CodependencyRecovery #FaithAndSobriety #HealingFromTrauma #InnerChildHealing #OpenRecovery #SobrietySuccess #OvercomingAddiction #SoberLife #TraumaHealing Learn more about your ad choices.
