Marty J's talk is a raw and deeply human journey through the wreckage of alcoholism and the redemption found in recovery. With humor, vulnerability, and a storyteller's flair, Marty reveals the full arc of his life—from early family trauma and relentless drinking to delusion, hospitalization, and the depths of self-centeredness. But the power of Alcoholics Anonymous—and of a persistent sponsor who "didn't understand rejection"—helped Marty confront his selfishness, rediscover spiritual connection, and rebuild love in his family. He speaks with honest gratitude about getting his children back, rekindling his marriage, and learning how to serve others from the heart. Above all, Marty’s story reminds us that the true miracle of sobriety isn't just not drinking—it's being freed from fear, discovering purpose in service, and becoming someone who can love and be loved fully.
