Over time, alcohol took over Dave's life, but giving it up improved every area of his life.
In this episode we have Dave, who shares his deeply personal and inspirational journey from growing up with an anxious mind and early struggles with guilt and shame, to becoming a defined party guy in high school and college. Despite achieving professional milestones, Dave's life was becoming increasingly unmanageable due to his drinking. He opens up about the physical and emotional toll his addiction took on him and his loved ones. Dave recounts his turning point moment of seeking help, the challenges of early sobriety, and the transformative effects it has had on his health, relationships, and overall life. Dave and I discuss the importance of replacing drinking with healthier activities, the persistent struggle with alcohol cravings, and the critical role of self-awareness and support systems in recovery.

This podcast really hit home to me for some reason. I also really enjoyed Brad’s input and just again discussing how we are different or feel different. Never feel like we fit in until we found alcohol. Then the “a ha” moment the first time I got drunk. I loved the feeling and I developed what Dave said a love affair. I never liked myself never felt like people liked me. Alcohol changed that. I became the party girl. Everyone started to know who I was. I was also “one of the guys”, I could drink as much or more than them skinny 90lb girl. So not being that girl, I lost all of my confidence and self worth. So I have to learn to like myself and find out who I am and not care what others think. Thank you for sharing!
