Paul Churchill: From High-Functioning Alcoholic to Spiritual Awakening

I saw that we're all high-functioning until we're not. It's so so blurry, especially if you're a highly-functioning alcoholic.
Ever wondered how someone can seem to have it all together while secretly battling alcohol addiction? In this episode of Recovery Happy Hour, host Tricia Lewis sits down with Paul Churchill, the founder of Recovery Elevator, to uncover his incredible journey from being a high-functioning alcoholic to finding spiritual peace and sobriety. Paul’s story is both eye-opening and deeply inspiring.
He opens up about the moment he realized his drinking was a problem and the tough road he faced in accepting it. His candid discussion about his experiences with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and other recovery methods sheds light on the diverse paths to sobriety. You'll hear how meditation and exercise played crucial roles in his recovery, emphasizing the need to heal not just the body, but also the mind and spirit.
One of the standout moments is Paul's take on ego and addiction. He talks about how overcoming the fear of missing out (FOMO) and understanding emotional triggers were key in his journey. As Paul says, 'we're all high-functioning until we're not', reminding us that anyone can find their way to a fulfilling life beyond alcohol. Whether you're struggling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights and hope.
Tune in to hear Paul's transformative story and gain practical advice for your own recovery journey.
