One day at a time, man, there's going to be urges. Stay busy. You can't really sit on the couch at night and think that the urge is going to easily go away. Go for a walk, go for a run, play with your kids, just do something to stay busy. If you do that long enough and start to see the physical change coupled with the mental change, dude, for me, that's like pouring gasoline on my motivation. It's electric.
Jason always felt that alcohol would be a permanent fixture in his life. Despite achieving significant success in various aspects of his career, he found quitting drinking an insurmountable challenge. He'd attempt Dry January, only to fall back into old habits by February. Alcohol strained his relationships, and when he became a father, he realized it was holding him back from reaching his true potential. At the start of 2023, Jason decided to give Dry January another go.
This time, after 30 days, he noticed a shift and chose to continue on his sober path. In this episode of the Sober Motivation Podcast, Jason opens up about his personal battles with alcohol and the profound changes sobriety has brought to his life. Growing up in a tumultuous environment with divorced parents and the responsibility of caring for his younger brothers, Jason's early years were far from easy.
As an adult, he enjoyed professional success but found himself trapped in a cycle of alcohol dependence. It wasn't until the birth of his son that he recognized the need for change. Jason's story is one of resilience and transformation. With the support of his loved ones, he overcame addiction and embraced a new identity as a non-drinker.
His journey to sobriety has not only improved his physical and mental well-being but also brought a renewed sense of purpose and fulfillment. Tune in to hear Jason's inspiring journey on the Sober Motivation Podcast. His story offers hope and encouragement to anyone looking to break free from addiction and live a life filled with clarity and joy.
