Tom’s journey has been anything but conventional. Having spent decades in prison, he found profound wisdom and resilience in the face of adversity. His experiences have shaped his perspective on redemption, trust, and the power of human connection.
A devoted member of the recovery community, Tom attends AA meetings almost daily and remains deeply engaged in the principles of service and self-discovery.
Born and raised in Houston, Tom Dodson has dedicated his life to personal transformation and the pursuit of deeper connection. After getting sober in 1993, he reestablished a daily meditation practice that has remained a cornerstone of his recovery and spiritual growth. With decades of experience in substance use disorder treatment, Tom holds an active Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor (LCDC) credential and continues to guide and support others on their paths to recovery.
Beyond his work in recovery, Tom is passionate about live music and nature. He finds joy in the simple, unfiltered moments that life has to offer. His story is one of perseverance, growth, and the undeniable strength of the human spirit.
