Fewer bitter or things to complain about get in it, and so you may start out as a gripe list, but if you keep doing it, you realize it's silly.
Picture a life where you're just drifting, waiting for the 'next thing' to happen. That's how Alex Thomsen lived for years, cramming his days with partying and drinking, never quite realizing he was spiraling down a dangerous path. In this episode of 'Let The Journey Begin', Alex sits down with hosts Jason Wahler and a guest co-host to share his candid journey from aimlessness to sobriety.
Growing up with no clear goals but feeling the pressure to meet his father's expectations, Alex eventually found himself isolated and dependent on alcohol. It wasn't until a chance encounter with a fellow runner on the beach that his life took a turn for the better. This runner, who was also sober, became the catalyst Alex needed to start his recovery journey.
Throughout the episode, Alex opens up about the struggles he faced, the wake-up calls he couldn't ignore, and the steps he took towards a healthier, more fulfilling life. Whether you're battling addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, Alex's story offers hope and practical advice for finding your own path to recovery. Tune in for an inspiring conversation that underscores the power of unexpected connections and the strength within us all to change our lives.
