Welcome to the Thriving in Recovery podcast, where recovered individuals share their stories of overcoming adversity to inspire others on their path to recovery.
In this episode, hosts Justin Harris and Bryce Givens sit down with their guest, Michael Benson. Michael Benson, born with glaucoma, turned to alcohol as a teenager to cope with the fear of going blind. But on November 3, 1983, a spiritual experience helped him get clean and sober, and he has been Thriving in Recovery ever since. Michael founded the Visual Experience Foundation to help those losing their sight have a visual experience that will last beyond their physical sight. Despite almost 40 years of recovery, Michael remains dedicated to sharing his experience with others, and it is clear that he is recovered but has not been cured, and his story is one of faith, healing, and gratitude.
So sit back, relax, and get ready for an inspiring conversation, diving into the goodness of Michael Benson.
