Summary

In this episode, Dan bravely shares his journey towards sobriety. He dives into his past, speaking about the childhood sexual abuse he endured and how this led him to use alcohol as a coping mechanism. Despite these significant struggles, he found strength in his determination not to give up and decided to take control of his life. Dan shares how helpful therapy was in processing his traumatic experiences and how turning to books and podcasts, like 'The Sober Motivation Podcast', helped him maintain his sobriety. Now 140 days sober, Dan shares the clarity he has found in his life and the increased appreciation he now has for everyday things once taken for granted.

 

Also on this episode I sat down with Dan Karaty the Author of If I'm Being Honest. Dan shares some of the details about writing the book and the reasons behind it.
