Leon opens up about being raised in an Asian family in Sydney.

Leon is celebrating 1 year sober today and uses LGBT specific groups for his recovery which has helped him find a new sense of self.

Paul speaks about his time in the steel industry, heavy drinking from his twenties and how it all seemed very normal at the time. The story progresses when his drinking turns to morning drinking, the withdrawals he would have from alcohol if he didn't top up and how he got into recovery.

Paul lost his brother to suicide in September 2019 and we both open up about our own times where suicide was an option and how we want more men to talk openly about when they are feeling shit. To be able to talk openly about your feelings is to start the road to recovery.

In this episode, Craig shares his raw and honest story of drinking, drug use, and ultimately finding sobriety — all starting in Dublin.

We dive into where it began, how things escalated, and the turning points that forced a change. This isn’t a polished, perfect recovery story… it’s real, relatable, and a reminder that no matter how far things go, there’s always a way back.

We also talk about life after alcohol — how sobriety reshapes identity, builds resilience, and opens doors you never thought possible.

If you’re struggling, sober-curious, or already on the path, this episode will hit home.

Tom speaks openly about his absent father growing up, moving to Australia where he got into using ICE (meth) and how sobriety has allowed him to be a better person, parent and colleague.

I am joined by Cam who talks to us about his sober journey from Australia to the UK and how meditation kick-started his transformation from being a typical lad to becoming sober.

We discuss in detail, the benefits of meditation and how it can be used to combat the emotions that come up in sobriety as well as heal emotions stored in the past. Cam is now a meditation teacher and his transformation is truly inspiring.

I have the privilege of speaking with Shannon who shares openly for the first time about his traumas and struggles growing up as a gay male in an adopted Southern Baptiste family. He speaks about how drugs and alcohol were his way of dealing with his trauma but he also shares the traumas that occurred as a result of drinking and drugging.

Shannon highlights how difficult (and unfair) life can be, even during his sobriety he has had to overcome so many painful events in his life, how he stayed sober during this time is truly inspiring. He speaks about what sobriety has given him, the support he got from his husband and how he didn't go to AA but use an addiction counsellor to help him to become sobriety.

I am inspired to live my best life after listening to Shannon, and he is an incredible human being.
