We want people to know that, yeah, you can't stay in the industry and you can make it and have a very rewarding and successful life and not use drugs or alcohol, and that was one of the points.
Imagine trying to stay sober while working in an industry where alcohol flows freely. That's the reality Scott Magnuson faced as a restaurateur battling addiction. In this episode of 'Since Right Now', Scott and his wife, Shaaren Pine, open up about their gripping memoir, Torn Together. They recount Scott's struggles with alcoholism, the ripple effects on their family, and the Herculean task of running The Argonaut restaurant amidst personal chaos.
Scott's journey through addiction and recovery isn't just his story—it's a family affair that also sees Shaaren confronting her own codependency issues. Together, they share the highs and lows of their path to sobriety, the importance of mental health, and the mission behind their non-profit, Restaurant Recovery™. This organization aims to support restaurant employees grappling with addiction by providing treatment solutions and fostering a supportive community.
If you're curious about how one family turned their darkest moments into a beacon of hope for others in the industry, this episode is a must-listen.
