Are you or someone you know fighting a losing battle with addiction? Do you want to spot the triggers that send 75% of people back to rehab and learn powerful ways to resist them? At last, you can win the daily struggle to be clean and sober forever! Motivational speaker and recovering drug-addict-turned-minister Willie Holloway saved himself from the addiction and childhood abuse that plunged him into a life of drugs, sex, violent behavior, auto accidents and repeated suicide attempts, and today he shares the powerful strategies he used to help others end their nightmare once and for all.

Reverend Holloway’s life-changing presentation shows audiences how to:

• Recognize they have a problem
• Identify triggers that cause relapse
• Implement powerful strategies for a successful recovery
• Make a life-long commitment to healing
• Get rid of judgmental or negative people and enablers
• Save and improve the quality of their lives
• Connect with people and organizations who can help and support them and show up for meetings
• Stay busy by setting goals

Willie’s common-sense “one day at a time” approach to sobriety gives your audience powerful strategies to make rehab successful once and for all. “Because you’re constantly being tempted, you must surround yourself with positive-thinking, supportive people,” he counsels—and he shows how to do this. “Those who enabled you in the past no longer have a place in your life,” he adds.

Reverend Holloway speaks from personal experience. As a young man, he was involved in a head-on collision with a drunk driver, and though by the grace of God, he and his passenger were unharmed, the traumatic event plunged him deeply into drugs and gambling. Soon after, he and his wife lost their home, but a prophetic dream—a clear sign from God—warned him he was headed down a dangerous path and he turned his life around just in time.

It took that dream of 11 years ago to turn him away from the drugs, and today, his passionate presentations and book, The Life of Willie Holloway, show audiences that no matter what your addiction, with hard work and faith, you can deliver yourself from that which threatens to destroy you.

Whether the addiction is drugs, alcohol, food, sex, gambling, or work, Reverend Holloway’s audiences leave his inspiring presentations able to admit they have a problem, face it head-on, break the cycle of endless rehab, and build a new, drug-free life.
