Thanks for joining me for Episode 7 of One For The Road.

This week I'm joined by Josh Connolly as he shares with us his incredible story.

From a difficult childhood as the son of an alcoholic, Josh openly talks about his life story, and his battle with both alcohol and drugs that he walked away from 9 years ago.

Josh speaks about the mental health struggles he faced, and how they were never the issue, but more an attempt at solving his problems.

At 9 months sober Josh was struggling with feelings of emptiness and deflation, as he planned his own suicide.

It was only through an experience with his children that stopped Josh from taking his own life and he took steps towards a more positive future,

Josh is a resilience coach, the co-host of 115 miles Podcast, and is an Ambassador for NacoaUK.
