TW: Alcoholism - This week Sofia has Aaron Seañez on to talk about his experience with traveling, alcohol, and sobriety. First Aaron shares his experience with drinking to excess, and what made him decide to choose sobriety. We also discuss the ways in which traveling for work can enable people to drink to excess. Aaron also shares the truth about why people become alcoholics, what detox centers look like and what his experience was like. Then we talk about how people struggling with substance abuse can identify their triggers and avoid them while traveling. We also discuss the benefits of traveling without consuming alcohol, and what you can do to protect yourself from drinking while traveling if you’re trying to stay sober. Lastly, we close out with some advice for those looking to drink less or end their dependency on alcohol.
