This week, we’re talking about identity. Not today's version of identity. The old version we thought we had to be. For some of us, alcohol made us feel funnier. More confident. More interesting. More connected. For other
You held them first. Before any of this. You remember who they were. You still see it. You tried to help. Tried to fix it. Tried to hold it together. You stayed. Even when it hurt. You didn't cause this. But you've been
Some people get you to the room. Some make you stay. Some show you what honesty looks like. Some remind you that recovery only works when you stop trying to do it alone. In this episode, the guys talk about the people wh
What starts light quickly turns into something deeper. The guys talk about what it actually looks like to use the tools of recovery when life doesn’t go your way. From job loss to anxiety to everyday frustration, this ep
You didn't know my name yet. But I knew you were trying. I saw every small step. I stayed when it got hard. I didn't ask for perfection. I asked you to keep coming back. Signed, Recovery
You didn’t know my name yet. But I knew yours. I watched. I waited. I found the cracks. I didn’t come crashing in. I came quietly. Signed, Your Addiction
Most of us were pretty good at saying sorry. We said it after a long night. After we showed up late. After we promised it wouldn’t happen again… and then it did. Sorry became part of the routine. But somewhere in recover
Shame and accountability get confused all the time. Let's unpack the difference, why shame keeps people stuck, and how accountability can actually lead to freedom. The guys talk relapse loops, parenting, self-worth at wo
At the time we recorded this, Charlie is 90 days sober. His story is about thinking he had control until one Monday proved otherwise. Charlie walks us through the quiet unraveling. The routines that kept him skating by.
Willpower works. Just kidding, no it doesn't. Most of us come into recovery believing that if we just try harder, get more disciplined, or finally do things the “right” way, we’ll fix what’s broken. Sometimes that works.
Turns out sobriety isn’t what the internet makes it out to be. In this episode, we rapid-fire our way through some of the biggest sobriety myths. From “you become a motivational speaker overnight” to “you should be able
What happens to your people when drinking becomes the priority, and what it costs to rebuild when you finally stop. Brian talks about choosing his wife and kids even when it disappointed his family of origin. God Guy nam
This is Don't story. He takes us through decades of “I can quit whenever I want,” isolation, stints in treatment, gaming the system in sober living, and the DUI that finally shattered his pride. Along the way he talks ab
Learn to level out. Take the peaks and valleys and turn them into something steadier. In this one we interrogate Jake. Then talk urges, boredom, living amends, the weight of grief, and what it takes to let the inside fin
Paul spent 23 years in addiction, reached the point of loading a gun on the beach, and chose life instead. Almost two years clean, he’s wrestled with isolation, brain fog, losing his job, nearly losing his home, and stil
This one is special. Paul joins us for a long, honest look at a life shaped by surrender, relapse, grace, and growth. He sobered up at 18. Fell hard in mid-life. Came back through the doors with nothing left but willingn
Guest Len has a phrase he says all the time. “I’m not that guy anymore.” He got sober later in life after 58 years of running from God, seven failed treatments, and a life built on self-determination. Today, he’s a stead
It’s easy to focus on the wreckage. But recovery brings quiet, powerful wins. This one wasn’t planned. We wrapped one episode and Jake threw out, “what about recovery highlights?” So we hit record again. What came out wa
Jake hits his first real bump in the road since getting sober, and it shakes him more than he expected. We talk about how recovery isn’t a straight path, what it feels like when a setback threatens your momentum, and why
