Please listen with care if these topics are sensitive for you.Chris made one choice at 22 that changed the trajectory of his life.What started as a reluctant step into sobriety, without much intention beyond getting help in the moment, became 25 years of choosing differently.

Choosing to show up.In this conversation, I sit down with Chris to talk about what it really looks like to build a life one day at a time.We talk about addiction and recovery, and also what comes after. Fatherhood. Friendship. The humility to keep learning. The discipline of staying grounded in relationships that matter.Chris is someone who has been all in on his sobriety, his kids, and the people in his life for decades. And he’s also honest about where he’s still growing, especially when it comes to fully showing up in romantic relationships and letting himself be seen.This is a conversation about the long game. About becoming. About the quiet, daily decisions that shape a life.And about what’s possible when one choice actually holds.
