In this episode, we sit down with Trey L., a former Wall Street professional whose journey from addiction to recovery is both compelling and inspiring. Trey’s story is a powerful testament to resilience and the transformative power of recovery. With a background marked by early success in a high-pressure career, Trey faced the challenges of addiction head-on, and his experience offers valuable insights for anyone struggling with similar issues.

Trey’s story begins with a childhood free from addiction but marked by the early seeds of independence and curiosity. His introduction to drugs and alcohol in college quickly escalated during his time working on Wall Street, where the culture of heavy drinking and drug use exacerbated his struggles. Despite professional success, Trey’s life spiraled as he became increasingly dependent on opiates and alcohol, culminating in a personal crisis that left him at rock bottom, facing the loss of his family and career.

In the second half of his journey, Trey took the courageous step of seeking help. After detox and treatment, he found solace and strength in the recovery community, particularly through AA. Embracing transparency and vulnerability, Trey rebuilt his life, focusing on his mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. Today, Trey is a beacon of hope, leading a fulfilling life surrounded by family and actively contributing to the recovery community through initiatives like The Lighthouse, a sober living environment he founded to support others on their path to sobriety.

By the end of this episode, listeners will gain a deep understanding of the importance of community, transparency, and taking actionable steps towards recovery. Trey’s story highlights that no matter how far someone has fallen, recovery is possible with the right support and mindset. This episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and practical advice on overcoming addiction and living a life of purpose and fulfillment.
