During the weekend talks, Don shares with raw honesty and warmth how, after a lifetime of restless searching, prison sentences, and spiritual emptiness, he was given a second life through the power of awakening and Alcoholics Anonymous. Once a man broken by self-centeredness, fear, and the endless need to “catch an edge,” he found peace in surrender—learning that recovery wasn’t about just not drinking but about becoming conscious that “where I am, God is.” Through his humor, storytelling, and decades of spiritual growth, Joe showed that real sobriety is not coping—it’s transformation, a rebirth into meaning, connection, and joyful service. After thirty-five years sober, he spoke not as a lecturer but as a living example of what happens when a hopeless soul lets go of everything he thinks he knows and allows love, laughter, and purpose to guide the rest of his days.
