Stuff that Matters, Ep. 36 - Ian Fee, Alcohol Addiction, Author, Business Owner, Gratitude, Family

Ian once embraced the “work hard, play harder” mentality, diving head first into a lifestyle that celebrated excessive drinking. He started sipping beer at the age of 1, bartended in the middle of nowhere at 13, built a business from the ground up in 2003, endured two failed marriages, and ultimately sold his company in 2016 while fat and drunk in Vegas. Ian then reached a breaking point and began his journey to reclaim his life. This time, he rebuilt everything—his relationships, his business, and his sense of purpose—without relying on the crutch of martini lunches or wine dinners.Today, Ian is a successful author, his book Wild Ride to Sobriety can be found on Amazon, an entrepreneur, and the creator of Make It Great (MIG). Proudly sober since 2017, he has dedicated himself to personal growth, family, and living a life of purpose and clarity. His journey from addiction to empowerment has become his mission: to help others trapped in the same cycle of self-destruction break free and embark on their own transformative path to health, passion, and a renewed mindset.Through his book, Wild Ride To Sobriety, Ian aims to inspire others to overcome their struggles and embrace a life of balance, success, and fulfillment.(00:02:16-00:08:47) – His book.(00:08:48-00:20:04) – How his upbringing and environment played a role in his addiction to alcohol.(00:20:05-00:23:21) – His rock bottoms and what sparked a change in his behavior.(00:25:17-00:43:49) – His core 4 and what it is in his life that keeps him on his path of sobriety; the relationship he has with his family, friends and loved ones today.(00:45:33-00:52:49) – Make it Great00:52:50 – The Stuff that MattersWatch full episodes on YOUTUBE.
