What happens when the party lifestyle that once felt exciting starts quietly destroying your mental health? In this episode, Kev shares how years of substance use, escapism, and unprocessed trauma slowly eroded his sense of self and left him searching for something more.

He shares how tools like running, yoga, breathwork, and nervous system healing helped him rebuild his life and create a version of sobriety rooted in self-discovery instead of deprivation.This conversation explores addiction, mental health, trauma, recovery, and what it really means to build a life you no longer want to escape from.To learn more about Kev's alcohol-free coaching, or to receive his newsletter, follow him on instagram @shiftwithswindells.As always, follow @dryhumorpodcast on IG.
