Summary

Today I’m having an on-air counseling session with Ian Crohn. You may have heard of him from his popular enneagram-focused podcast, but today you’ll get to know him in a new way. In our conversation, today, we unpack his past history with alcoholism, what led him to that destructive place, as well as his journey to the point of relapse and then ultimate recovery. We also discuss where he is today, and what he’s doing to stay healthy and free from the grip of alcohol in his life. It’s a conversation filled with incredible insight and hard-fought wisdom. If you or someone you know has ever struggled with substance use, abuse, or addiction- this conversation is such a powerful, eye-opening conversation.
