Seven years ago, I stood at a crossroads – one path leading further into the dark familiarity of alcohol, and the other towards a life of clarity, sobriety and purpose.

This episode marks not just a personal milestone of sobriety, but a testament to the transformative power of change, and the message that You are not alone in your struggles.

Join me as I reflect on the journey from those early struggles to the rewarding clarity that sobriety has brought to my life. From shedding 45 pounds to gaining better control over my emotions, the changes are profound and lasting. I am a more present (and better) father, husband, and friend.

Through sharing my story, I aim to kindle hope for those struggling with their own addictions, affirming that a new life is achievable, one day at a time.

I produced two other podcasts about my sobriety at my 5 and 6 year marks, and both times, I've had people reach out to me to talk about their desire to leave their addictions behind. So, I felt it was a good and useful idea to continue that trend and to offer encouragement and some resources for this looking to take that next step of sobriety in their own lives...
