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.
I love the title of Michael Alisasis podcast: “Life Sober and Shit.” It captures what it’s like to be in recovery.
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.
