Facing Addiction, Finding Sobriety

In this episode, I open up about my journey with addiction, the struggles of relapse, and the long road to sobriety. I share what it was like to lose control, the wake-up calls that forced me to confront my reality, and the mindset shifts that helped me push through. Sobriety wasn’t a one-time decision—it was a fight, moment by moment. I talk about the emotional and physical toll of addiction, the impact on those around me, and why true change only happens when you're ready for it.If you’ve ever battled addiction, supported someone who has, or just want a raw, unfiltered look into what recovery really looks like, this episode is for you.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:00:00 - Introduction02:31 - Jumping into sobriety07:43 - Blacking out and losing control11:46 - The moment I knew I had to quit16:56 - Do interventions really work?24:17 - The turning point: facing my own mortality32:12 - How addiction rewires the brain42:15 - The power of staying present49:59 - How I fight the voice that says “just one drink”Thanks for listening.
