About this listen
In this deeply moving episode of Real Medicine, Laurie opens up about his battle with alcohol addiction, beginning with early life experiences and the heartbreak of raising a child with cancer. With raw honesty, he reflects on the pain he tried to numb, the moments that broke him, and the community that helped him heal. Through the lens of AA, Laurie shares how recovery gave him not just sobriety—but his life, his purpose, and his family back. This is a story of vulnerability, hope, and the quiet therapy of connection.
