Amir Farhang: From Cowboy Bars to Creative Agencies and Sobriety

I feel like I was living in a bubble and I needed to break out of it. I needed to find out who I was and what I wanted in life.
Picture growing up in Tucson, Arizona, where your family runs a cowboy bar, and you're expected to take over. That was Amir Farhang's life until a chance encounter opened the door to the advertising world in Los Angeles. In this episode of 'The Drunkalogues', hosted by Nick Morton, Amir shares his compelling journey from the bar scene to the bustling ad agencies of LA.
His story is not just about career shifts but a deep dive into battling substance abuse and rediscovering his true self. Amir candidly discusses the highs and lows of his path to sobriety, emphasizing the need for mental health awareness and finding a higher power. He also touches on how fame and success can sometimes isolate you from your own reality.
Amir's tale is filled with raw honesty, offering hope and inspiration for anyone struggling with addiction or seeking a fresh start. This episode is a must-listen for those interested in heartfelt stories of recovery, personal growth, and the impact of mental health on our lives.
