Mike shares his experience & journey from chaos to recovery. Marked by alcoholism, drug use, and repeated relapses until surrendering to AA in 1980. Growing up in a turbulent alcoholic household, his drinking quickly spiraled into blackouts, violence, and despair, leaving him broken despite outward successes. His turning point came through a series of “coincidences” he later recognized as divine intervention, leading him into treatment, AA sponsorship, and disciplined service that transformed his life. Through step work, commitments, and faith, Mike rebuilt his family relationships, pursued law school, and ultimately became a district attorney—proof that honesty, surrender, and action could bring serenity and purpose. His story is one of resilience, showing how embracing humility, spiritual reliance, and service allowed him to move from pitiful demoralization to a life filled with meaning, responsibility, and hope.
