James C - A Lover of Addicts

At a table for three with James C, and this coffee has been a long time coming. James called in as a listener and said “I have a story” and that’s what Sober.Coffee is all about - gaining strength, experience and hope from other people’s stories. Listen in as James tells us about his moment of surrender and the work that followed.
You can learn from anyone. You can learn what to do. You can learn what not to do. If you listen to their story, listen to their life and the challenges they face, if you truly listen - their story is suggesting to you how to overcome an obstacle in your life. That’s what we hear from James C.


James shares that he was given the gift of surrender on a cold January night in Michigan. It was the end of the road. He was highly addicted to alcohol, heroin, methadone, and valium and spent detox in a dingy, dark room. On the third night, sick as a dog, James tells us about the circumstances that led to his surrender, his gift of sobriety and the willingness to do the hard work that would be facing him after detox.
