But that’s one thing that those letters really spotlighted that ‘Wow, this is my path and my journey. This happened.’”“I turned my back on you and Chris. That really is hard for me to own up.”“You can’t want somebody’s sobriety more than they want it for themselves.”“There was a lot of rehabilitation intellectually, physically and spiritually throughout this process because I didn’t have the confidence that I had at one time being in that space. It was just one day, one foot at a time moving forward.”“In my experience, the individuals that really blossom through the recovery process, they have really cultivated a spiritual life that is really rich. And they keep growing and expanding it so that their emotional capital, their spiritual capital, their intellectual capital all benefits.”Links Mentioned:Kurt’s TwitterKurt’s Instagram Find TreatmentPeter’s Email Book Mentioned:The Fourth Turning
