from At the Podium with Patrick Huey · host Patrick Huey

Send us Fan MailMcCord Henry spent years building a successful career while privately fighting  battles that threatened to take everything from him.Raised in a conservative Christian household in North Carolina, McCord grew up surrounded by faith, family, and expectations. But beneath the surface, he was wrestling with questions of identity, belonging, and self-worth. As he entered adulthood, alcohol became a way to escape the things he didn't know how to face. What began as social drinking slowly evolved into addiction, leading him down a path marked by isolation, shame, and self-destruction.In this deeply personal conversation, McCord shares the story of the moment everything changed.With remarkable honesty, he reflects on his struggle with alcoholism, the challenges of coming out as a gay man in a religious family, and the long journey toward accepting himself fully. He speaks candidly about the role shame played in both his addiction and his identity, and how surrendering the life he thought he needed ultimately opened the door to the life he was meant to live.Throughout the conversation, McCord offers a powerful perspective on recovery, personal growth, and the courage required to confront difficult truths. Today, McCord is a hospitality executive who has worked with some of the industry's most respected brands. He is also the founder of ScriptedWit, a company dedicated to helping people create meaningful connection through the simple act of putting pen to paper.This episode is a single man's jourmey through shame and surrender to  freedom—and a reminder that sometimes the most important turning point in our lives begins with a single decision.Listen.
