In our interview, I share my journey to sobriety, which began with the help of a coach who encouraged me to attend 12-step recovery meetings. I describe my first meeting and the challenges I faced in the early days of sobriety. I emphasize the importance of personal growth and ongoing work in recovery. I also discusses the connection between sobriety and success, highlighting the need for internal change and self-discovery. The conversation concludes with me offering advice for those seeking sobriety and the importance of finding a supportive community.
Join Jessica Stipanovic and me on her The Sober Living Stories Podcast. I share on my growth in business, alcoholism, and eventually into recovery. I share on how addressing my own drinking problem has positively resulted in helping other entrepreneurs succeed.

We discuss the importance of finding support and not trying to overcome addiction alone. I also talk about my experience reconnecting with my birth family and the personal growth I went through to build relationships with them. We both emphasize the importance of doing the work and seeking help to find hope and overcome addiction.
