Benny Owen: From Stage Performer to Fitness Guru

For me it was: I can't socialize with those people and I can't be around that guy and I can't be around her and him. And you know, I found a new thing that gave me that bit of confidence.
Have you ever wondered how someone can transform from a chronic binge drinker to a fitness trainer for celebrities? Meet Benny Owen. Once the guy playing a car door on stage with Ash Grunwald, Benny now thrives as an outgoing and driven individual. But his journey wasn't always smooth. From a young age, Benny battled low self-esteem and anxiety, often turning to alcohol for a confidence boost.
In this episode of 'How I Quit Alcohol,' host Danni Carr dives into Benny's incredible transformation. Benny shares candidly about being an 'introverted extrovert' and the societal pressures men face to drink. He opens up about how alcohol initially seemed like a solution but quickly became a problem. The conversation touches on male vulnerability and the impact of personal loss on addiction. Benny's story is a testament to the power of refocusing habits and aligning one's life with core values.
Through sheer determination, Benny overcame his insecurities and found new ways to socialize without relying on alcohol. His physical transformation is as impressive as his internal one. Benny also discusses his fitness journey and how adopting a keto diet played a significant role in his recovery. If you're looking for inspiration or practical advice on overcoming alcohol dependency, this episode is packed with insights.
Benny's story highlights the importance of self-awareness and the courage to change, making it a must-listen for anyone on a similar path.
