I Haven't Had a Drink in Over Two Months. Here's What Changed | Broken Healthcare Podcast #94

from Broken Healthcare

Yeah, this one's different.No guests. No healthcare policy. No claims data. Just me, sitting down and talking about something I've never talked about publicly before.For years, a couple of drinks at the end of the day was just part of life. Business dinners, networking, winding down. A few glasses of Don Julio. Nothing dramatic - just a quiet daily habit that, somewhere along the way, became more than I wanted it to be.A guided psilocybin journey changed that. And I haven't had a drink in over two months.I'm not a doctor. I'm not here to tell anyone what to do. This is just my story - and I'm sharing it because I think too many people, especially in business, are carrying things they don't talk about. The shame around that needs to stop.In this episode I talk about the months of preparation before the journey, what the experience actually felt like, the memories that surfaced - including seeing my dad, who passed away when I was two years old, and reliving the hardest conversation I ever had with my kids, but this time through their eyes. I talk about what changed after. The calm. The presence. The fact that I just... stopped thinking about drinking.I also talk about what my doctor said when I told him. That part stuck with me.This isn't a healthcare episode. It's a human one. If it helps one person feel less alone - that's why I recorded it.⚠️ Not medical advice. Psilocybin can be dangerous for people with certain mental health histories or on specific medications - please speak to a medical professional before considering anything like this, and check the legal status in your area.brokenhealthcarepodcast.com youtube.com/@BrokenHealthcarePodcast linkedin.com/in/raykober/#BrokenHealthcare #Psilocybin #MagicMushrooms #MentalHealth #PsychedelicTherapy #Sobriety #PersonalGrowth #RayKober #MensHealth #Healing Hosted on Acast.

Explicit Sickboy Sickboy is the only place where terminal diagnoses can peacefully coexist with jokes we probably shouldn't make.

We talk to people living with everything from chronic disease to catastrophic injury, mental health struggles to medical miracles - and we do it with radical empathy, zero BS, and the kind of unfiltered jokes that get us kicked out of support groups.

In the film, she asks how it is possible that so many workers at Disneyland, aka “the happiest place on earth,” can’t afford life's basic necessities, even when they work full time. For the fourth season of All Ears, Abigail poses that question to people who are doing the most Disney thing of all–using their imaginations–in this case to rethink capitalism. She talks with business leaders, union organizers, and economists to learn how they would fix our broken economy. Explicit The Most Important Question Important, Not Important You already know things are broken. You read the news, you listen to the analysis, you've got the outrage. What you don't have is a plan.The Most Important Question — 6x Webby-nominated, 2x Signal Award-nominated — is a weekly conversation with one person who stopped asking "what can I do?" and went and found out. Not pundits. Not commentators. The scientists, doctors, nurses, journalists, farmers, activists, and policymakers who are doing the actual work on the frontlines of climate, public health, democracy, AI, food, water, medicine, and justice.Host Quinn Emmett goes deep with each of them — the infectious disease doctor building new outbreak surveillance tools, the investigative journalist who traced how forever chemicals got into 97% of our blood, the economist building emergency lifeboats for foreign aid that got axed overnight, one of the greatest writers alive reckoning with the history we were never taught — and every conversation ends with something nobody else gives Explicit
