This Sober Vet Podcast

This Sober Vet Podcast My name is Joe Yurick, my mission is to normalize sobriety with Veterans who are using and abusing substances in a harmful, self-medicating way.

There’s a point in sobriety when you realize something:

You’re not trying to become the person you were before alcohol.

You’re becoming someone you’ve never been before.

More present.
More disciplined.
More honest.
More dependable.

And maybe the biggest change of all?

You stop caring whether people think sobriety is “cool.”

Because waking up without regret is cool.
Being there for your family is cool.
Keeping your word is cool.
Taking your life back is cool.

Veterans—we spent years learning how to fight for everyone else.

Sometimes the most important fight is the one for ourselves.

Normalizing sobriety with Veterans.

If you’re a Veteran who’s sober, sober-curious, or wondering if life could be better without alcohol—you belong in this conversation.

Saturday morning. Pack on. Boots moving. Clear mind.

Sobriety taught me something the Army taught me years ago:

You don’t have to see the whole route. You just have to keep moving forward.

Some days sobriety feels light.
Some days it feels like a 100-pound ruck.

Carry it anyway.

Because every sober morning is another mile between you and the person you used to be—and another step toward the person you were always supposed to become.

No hangover.
No regret.
No excuses.

Just forward movement.

One day. One mile. One decision at a time.

Keep rucking. Keep fighting. Stay sober. 🇺🇸

Most Veterans become experts at saying, “I’m fine,” even when alcohol, anxiety, depression, and unresolved pain are quietly taking control.
In this powerful episode of This Sober Vet, Air Force combat Veteran John Moser shares his honest journey through alcoholism, addiction, mental health struggles, suicidal ideation, and the difficult process of rebuilding his life through recovery, connection, and service.
John opens up about the battles that continued after military service, the consequences of using alcohol to cope, and the moments that forced him to confront what was happening beneath the surface. He also discusses why Veterans often struggle to ask for help—and how honest conversations with people who understand military culture can become a lifeline.
Today, John has transformed his pain into purpose through his work with SAVE22 Veterans, where he advocates for Veterans facing addiction, trauma, depression, anxiety, and suicidal thoughts. Through Veteran outreach, motorsports, and authentic conversations, he helps create spaces where struggling Veterans can stop pretending they are okay and begin moving toward recovery.
Joe and John explore the importance of brotherhood, vulnerability, personal accountability, and finding a new mission after addiction.
In this episode:
* Life after military service
* Alcoholism and addiction recovery
* Depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation
* Why Veterans hide emotional pain
* The importance of peer support and honest conversation
* Finding purpose through SAVE22 Veterans
* Turning personal struggles into service for others
Recovery does not require you to forget where you have been. It gives you the opportunity to use your story to help someone else find their way home. John Moser

There are moments when you realize the path ahead isn’t about becoming someone new.

It’s about stripping away everything that’s been keeping you from becoming who you were supposed to be.

This photo was taken at Cheaha State Park in Alabama on Day 1 of my journey on the Arete Path, led by retired Navy SEAL instructor Kevin Stark.

I came here sober. I came here willing to be uncomfortable. I came here ready to learn.

Because sobriety gave me my life back—but I’m learning that getting sober isn’t the finish line.

It’s permission to start climbing again.

One day. One decision. One step at a time.

The path continues.

Today, This Sober Vet is set up at Universal Technical Institute for SOBERFEST. 🇺🇸

Every conversation about sobriety matters.

For too long, drinking has been treated like it’s simply part of military and Veteran culture. We’re working to change that conversation.

This Sober Vet exists to show Veterans that choosing sobriety isn’t giving something up—it’s taking your life back.

If one person stops at this table today, hears our story, and starts questioning their relationship with alcohol, then being here was worth it.

Proud to represent This Sober Vet today.

Normalize sobriety. Start the conversation. Change a life.
