In this deeply personal episode, I take you back to the early 2000s, sharing a confessional story about a pivotal relationship with a woman who had an undeniable coolness. Together, we navigated the exploration of a friendship, somewhere I had never been before, something I only acted on where alcohol was involved and wrestling with the impact of my drinking habits on our connection. It's a raw and honest look at how alcohol shaped—and ultimately strained—a relationship, paving the way for my journey to sobriety. Through this reflection, I uncover the lessons that guided me toward growth, healing, and a better understanding of myself.
