Season 2, Episode 11: Bob Conlin

Welcome to Season 2, Episode 11 of our Back to Life Podcast. Our guest today is Bob Conlin. I met Bob through an event we did together and once we got to talking, I immediately was drawn to his overcomer spirit. He is going to share his very powerful story of addiction that he battled from early teenage years all the way through becoming a clinical care nurse. 

You will want to hear how he hit rock bottom and then moved through that time in his life and how he came back to life and found new happiness and fulfillment. 

You will see how Bob learned to:

• Identify the difference between knowing and awareness 

• Tap into that awareness

• And also, the importance of asking for help

So listen up, enjoy, reflect, take some things away for yourself as you listen into this conversation with our guest, Bob Conlin.
