How Sobriety Unlocked His Career: Philip Barantini

Philip Barantini moved to London at 17. He was on Dream Team, then Band of Brothers as the youngest cast member, then Ned Kelly. He had free Soho House membership, a driver, and a 5am bedtime. Then the work fizzled out and the anger came in. He spent the next decade in restaurant kitchens drinking red wine out of coffee cups during service.In this conversation with Sober Dave, Philip walks back through the whole arc. The mum who poured her vodkas with him at the bar when he was ten. The audition years where he thought he was untouchable. The wife who packed up and left after six months of marriage. The morning something in his brain just switched, the one-on-one counsellor who helped him stay sober, and then the loss that opened the door to everything since: directing Villain with Craig Fairbrass, then Boiling Point with Stephen Graham, then his production company Three Little Birds Pictures, named after his late mum's favourite song.If you enjoy One For The Road, then click follow to be notified of the release of our next episode.If you want to connect with me via Instagram, you can find me on the instahandle @Soberdave https://www.instagram.com/soberdave/or via my website https://davidwilsoncoaching.com/Provided below are links for services offering additional help and advice, and links for Philip.https://www.instagram.com/barantini/https://alcoholchange.org.uk/https://www.wearewithyou.org.uk/https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/advice/alcohol-support-serviceshttps://nacoa.org.uk/Show producer- Daniella Attanasio-Martinezhttps://www.grownuphustle.com/Instagram - @TheDaniellaMartinez@GrownupHustleHosted on Acast.
