Life, Health & The Universe

Let us know what you thought of this episode!

Recently, a former guest of the show, Anthony Hartcher, invited me to talk about my journey to sobriety on his podcast.
I'm a former CrossFit Games athlete and personal trainer, and have finally turned my struggle with alcohol dependency into a powerful story of transformation and hope.
Despite living what seemed to be a perfectly healthy lifestyle, I found myself trapped in a cycle of alcohol use that clashed with my aspirations. Anthony invited me to share my account of overcoming addiction and how breaking free has redefined my life, offering inspiration for anyone facing similar battles. Through this episode, we highlight the critical need for honest conversations around addiction, challenging societal norms that often disguise dependency as normal behaviour.

My decision to quit drinking, was not only for myself but to be a better leader and role model for my children. I shared the importance of educational resources like books and apps in reshaping habits and how newfound energy and time from sobriety have enriched my life. I also provide practical tips for setting new routines, such as consistent family bedtimes and incorporating activities that enhance well-being.

I also delve into the broader theme of self-discovery, catalysed by this podcast, "Life, Health, and the Universe," which has been instrumental in my healing journey. Removing the societal Band-Aid of alcohol consumption has unveiled deeper personal insights and insecurities that I've needed to confront.
The episode underscores the power of community and shared stories, bringing together voices from integrative health and esoteric practices to foster growth and connection. Whether you're embarking on your own path to sobriety or seeking inspiration for personal growth, I hope my story serves as a beacon of resilience and empowerment.
