35 Years. 18 Beers a day. 0 Drinks since 2018.

👇 Download my exact Sober Social Survival Kit & Supplement Stack here: https://thesoberstrong.com/workbook

Most people treat sobriety like a theory. They tell you what you should do based on a book they read. I’m telling you what I did to survive.

For over three decades, I was "functional." I had the job, the life, and a perpetual buzz that required 12 to 18 beers every single day just to feel normal. In 2018, I realized if I didn't change the inputs, the output was going to be my death before age 50.

In this video, I’m breaking down the exact mental framework I used to stop drinking instantly after 35 years of high-functioning alcoholism.

What you’ll learn in this video:

The Reframing Secret: How to stop seeing alcohol as a "reward" and start seeing it as a massive liability.

The 30-Second Rule: My tactical approach to killing cravings before they take over.

The "Deep Want": Why quitting for your boss or your spouse is a recipe for failure—and what actually works.

High-Functioning Trap: Why being "good at drinking" is the most dangerous place to be.

I spent years telling my clients to "just switch their mixers" while I was drinking a fifth of liquor every night. I was a fraud. My integrity was zero, and my morals were gone.

In this video, I’m not giving you "tips." I’m showing you the exact framework I used to stop drinking after 21 years of daily use. On July 10th, 2023, I decided I was done being a liar. I used 75 Hard as the bridge to get my life back, and by July 2026, I’ll be 3 years sober.
