E13 The Things They Never Tell Us-we are all addicts.

from The Green Pants · host Scott LeRette

“This episode is totally off-the-cuff — Scott hits record and talks straight from the gut about something rarely discussed: the societal and relational cost of sobriety. Everyone knows what addiction does to the addict, but very few talk about what sobriety does to everyone around them. Scott walks through ten hard-hitting pillars: why people pull away when you get sober, how recovery becomes a mirror for others, why old playgrounds and playmates fade, how shame and inertia shape relationships, and even why sobriety rewires your brain to feel repulsed by drunkenness. This is a raw, unfiltered conversation about identity, healing, loss, faith, and what it truly takes to rebuild your life. If you’ve ever struggled with addiction — or loved someone who has — this episode will hit home.”https://linktr.ee/thegreenpants

“A raw, off-the-cuff episode where Scott breaks down the hidden costs of sobriety — losing friends, reshaping identity, facing mirrors you don’t want to look into, and learning to love differently as you grow.”
