When drinking alcohol goes from occasional happy hours with friends and co-workers to necessary regimented daily practice. 

If you require booze to function with the pressures and anxieties of life (or know someone who does) then this episode is a MUST listen. This is a sobering discussion about the darkness of alcoholism.

Our guest on Strong By Design, Chris Scott, founded Fit Recovery to help people from around the world transcend alcohol and optimize their health. Chris has been addiction-free since 2014 and is on a mission to help others break free as well.

He is the author of Drinking Sucks!, creator of online course & support community Total Alcohol Recovery 2.0, and cohost of the Elevation Recovery Podcast with Matt Finch.

Chris has dedicated nearly a decade to studying alcohol recovery, natural supplementation, and fitness. 

“My brain was deteriorating, my liver was deteriorating, my gut was deteriorating and my sanity was deteriorating. I would wake up every night at 3 in the morning feeling like all was about to break loose. The same feeling of anxiety that you would have, situationally, if a nuclear bomb had just got off or was about to, and only you knew it.” - Chris Scott
