I just do not believe today at 55 years of age, being sober for 36 years, that this is the end. I don't want it to be the end. Way over time? That's changed over the years. I was going to say, I don't know that. Yeah. What the fuck are you talking about?
Ever wondered what it takes to turn a life of addiction into one of advocacy and success? In this episode of 'Recovery Lab', hosts Drew Hassin and Daniel Anderson sit down with Sean Guy, a man whose journey from addiction to over three decades of sobriety is nothing short of inspiring. Sean's tale isn't just about kicking the habit; it's about excelling in higher education, making waves in the legal field, and giving back to the community.
With a Doctor of Jurisprudence from Mississippi College, Sean has been a formidable force in student politics and legal forums, tackling everything from product liability to toxic torts. But his story doesn't stop at his legal career. Sean's past roles, including a stint as a registered representative for New York Life and as a marketing director for a behavioral health hospital, have given him a unique perspective on the intersection of addiction, recovery, and professional life.
Now, as a board member for Harbor House of Jackson and the National Council for Alcoholism, Sean channels his passion for service into helping others navigate their own recovery journeys. This episode is packed with reflections on personal growth, the importance of resilience, and the impact of supportive relationships. If you're looking for a story that showcases the transformative power of recovery and the continuous learning process that comes with it, this conversation with Sean Guy is a must-listen.
