Nick Barrett: Turning Sobriety into Entrepreneurial Success

Drinking is just a symptom of trying to escape in some way or form, and we do become addicted to it while we're on it, and the point is not to go back on it, because it could easily suck us back in again.
What if the road to recovery could also be the path to entrepreneurial success? Nick Barrett’s story is a testament to how personal transformation can lead to professional achievements. In this episode of 'Emerge. Evolve. Lead.', Maureen Ross Gemme chats with Nick, who has been sober since March 11, 2017. Once considered unlikable before he turned 30, Nick has now become a thriving entrepreneur and a leader at his own company, CordBrick LLC.
Nick opens up about the essential lessons he's learned on his journey to sobriety and how they've shaped his business acumen. He emphasizes three key principles: acceptance, action, and authenticity. According to Nick, these elements have not only helped him stay sober but have also been crucial in building a successful business. His insights into self-discipline and consistency reveal how these traits can create a life rhythm that fosters both personal and professional growth.
Throughout the episode, Nick shares candid anecdotes about his struggles with addiction and the pivotal moments that led him to embrace recovery. His reflections on overcoming denial offer a powerful message for anyone facing similar challenges. Nick's transformation from someone grappling with addiction to a self-aware, healthy leader is nothing short of inspiring.
