Thomas Holmes, a guest from April 2023 episode #72, wanted to promote an upcoming event featuring a keynote speaker that has been on my interview list for quite some time. This combination of recovery and giving back and makes for a compelling interview of storytelling and awareness.  Listen as Thomas, from the Chicago projects, mixes with townie, Jay Ramshaw, to talk about their upcoming event, Milestones & Miracles: A Recovery Happens Celebration on November 20 from 6 to 8 at Hyatt Place in downtown Champaign. Jay provides a personal story of recovery while Thomas outlines the purpose behind the event. Igniting the addiction, the explosive early years of binge drinking, the ripple effects on family, friends and teammates, the rock bottom and getting help. I knew Jay way back then and am proud to know him even better now, healthier, happier and dedicated to his sobriety and helping others.
