Be honest enough with yourself. This is all about self-honesty, rigorous honesty.

I met Jorge back when I was in rehab down in Florida and he was a mentor. He helped me a lot along the way and it was special having him on my podcast. He has over 28.5 years of sobriety. He works in residential treatment, where they handle substance abuse and mental health amongst other things, and has been in the treatment field for 10 years. When he was a child, he experienced trauma that would affect him for the rest of his life. By  8 years old, he was drinking Budweiser. Hear his story here of the progression of addiction, as well as the gifts of recovery.
