Welcome to my interview with Saul Edmonds on his Grow Your Business Podcast. Our conversation started with the prevalence of alcoholism and addiction in the general population and with entrepreneurs. I reminded Saul and his listeners that if you struggle with alcoholism or addiction, there is hope and that none of us get clean and sober alone.
Join Bill and Mike on their Sober Not Mature Podcast as we laugh, use a little off color language, and talk about many aspects of recovery:
Many of us own a business so that we can maximize our flexibility. While a business can offer that, more often we need to be accountable in order to get to the ultimate goals we have for our business and ourselves.

As a business owner or CEO, there is a good chance you will encounter an employee that has a problem with alcohol. Alcohol is the most common legal drug in the world. At least 5% of adults suffer from Alcohol Use Disorder.

Being a CEO of an established company with 10, 20, 50, or 100 employees means you are constantly encouraging others. As CEO you have to take responsibility for Vision and Strategy, including where your biggest markets are going to be. In an established company your role is primary focused on making the people who report to you and all the rest of the employees in your company successful.
