Overcoming Trauma, Addiction, and Finding Redemption with Travis Sackett

Send us a text

In the story of life, not many things are as complicated and fragile as the path from being addicted to becoming free and sober. Today, I want you to hear about Travis, whose story shows how strong people can be.
Travis's story begins with a childhood marred by abuse and difficulty. Despite these challenges, he pursued a career in criminal justice, aiming to make a positive impact in the world. However, life threw him a curveball when a serious injury led him down the path of opioid addiction. And even there, he secretly fought with his substance addiction, and his colleagues didn't notice.
Until a traumatic incident served as his wake-up call. It was the moment he realized that drugs and alcohol were not the solution to his problems. He didn't get sober alone. With the help of a counselor and a tailored recovery program, Travis began the arduous journey to sobriety, developing skills and learning to communicate effectively with others.
An unexpected helper for Travis was Karma, a dog he rescued. By helping Karma, Travis also helped himself. Their friendship reminded him every day that there is love and loyalty in life.
Now, Travis is a symbol of hope for others who are still struggling with addiction. He's also working to make things better. His book, "Life with Karma," isn't just his life story; it's a guide for those who want to find their way out of a bad place. His job isn't just work; it's his mission to help others who need it.
When you hear Travis's story on "Flatpack Sober," let it inspire you. Remember that no matter how hard things are, you can always change. His move from being addicted to being sober shows how much people can change and how one choice can make a difference in someone's life.
Come join our talk, and maybe you'll see your strength and ability to bounce back. Listen now, and be part of a group that believes in getting better and having hope for a better future.
Connect with Travis on his Facebook account.
