Welcome back to another episode of the "Winner's Find a Way" show. I'm your host, Trent Clark, and today we had the privilege of speaking with Clay Worrell, a man who has seen the highest highs and the lowest lows, and has emerged with invaluable insights on overcoming addiction. Clay's journey is one of resilience and transformation. He shared with us his experiences growing up in an environment where alcohol was a constant presence, leading to his own struggles with addiction. Despite achieving remarkable success at a young age, becoming the youngest general manager of a Fortune 100 company, and earning numerous accolades, Clay's life was derailed by alcohol and substance abuse. In a candid recount of his life, Clay opened up about the turning point that came after a series of life-threatening incidents, including being shot in the head and a severe car accident. These events marked the beginning of a 12-year downward spiral, which saw him bouncing between jails, hospitals, detox units, and rehab facilities. Clay's story is not just one of personal struggle, but also a critique of the current state of addiction treatment. He expressed his concerns about the ineffectiveness of traditional 12-step programs and rehab centers, which he believes offer a dismal success rate and can sometimes do more harm than good. Instead, Clay advocates for a more holistic approach that addresses the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects of recovery. Throughout the episode, Clay emphasized the importance of understanding the neurological aspects of addiction, such as the role of neurotransmitters like dopamine, and the power of establishing a clear, purpose-driven life. He shared his belief that with the right guidance, anyone can overcome their addiction, and he's dedicated to helping others through his program, "I Have Victory Now." Clay's message is one of hope and empowerment. He encourages those struggling with addiction to take a hard look at their lives, make a firm commitment to change, and seek out mentors who have successfully navigated the path to recovery.   For anyone looking to connect with Clay or learn more about his program, he can be reached at IHaveVictoryNow.com.He and his wife, Felicia, who is also skilled in counseling, are committed to helping individuals and their families heal from the damage caused by addiction.   This episode serves as a powerful reminder that no matter how far one may fall, there is always a way back.
