In this episode of Remember Your Why, Kristen welcomes Seth, who shares his gripping journey from early alcohol use to almost five years of sobriety. Seth began drinking at 16, trying to fit in and cope with the pressures around him. Growing up in an environment where alcohol was a tool for both celebration and stress relief, Seth's path seemed almost predestined.
He recounts how his drinking quickly spiralled out of control, leading to multiple DUIs, jail time, and even being intubated twice. Seth's candid reflections on hitting rock bottom and his struggles with mental health provide a raw and honest look into the life of someone battling addiction. Despite the severe lows, Seth's story is one of resilience and transformation.
He emphasises the importance of finding a mentor in recovery, someone who has achieved what you aspire to, and learning from their journey. His advice is simple yet profound: your feelings might not matter as much as your actions. Consistency and logic are key. Seth also touches on the heart-wrenching experience of losing custody of his children due to his past but finds strength in his sobriety to keep moving forward.
This episode is a powerful reminder that recovery is possible, no matter how deep the struggle. If you're looking for inspiration and practical advice on staying sober, Seth's story will resonate deeply.
