But it’s twice as hard, believe it or not, in the end result, to not.” As a self-described “tough cookie,” Lawder shared that he has gone through many challenges in his life, including battles with substance use and time in prison. He believes that God not only helped him through these struggles, but also blessed him to now give back to other people. After Lawder moved to Alton, he decided to start “Sober For Life Radio,” a nonprofit radio show that raised money to help people start treatment and/or move into sober
