Status and Sobriety: Lee Davy's Candid Take on External Approval

If you want to be someone who doesn't drink alcohol, and you find that the reason that you're finding it really difficult is because you are not being open with your friends and colleagues and strangers. You are trying to get your approval and your security from outside yourself, and that will mean you are going to allow your ego to rule your life and you're not going to live as consciously as you probably want to.
Ever wondered why breaking free from alcohol feels like climbing a mountain? Lee Davy has some thoughts on that. In this episode of the '1000 Days Sober Podcast', Lee dives into the tricky topic of status and its impact on sobriety. He unpacks how our craving for external validation can keep us stuck in unhealthy habits, even when we know better deep down.
Drawing from his own journey and experiences, Lee offers a raw and relatable perspective on the pressures of societal conditioning and the pitfalls of letting ego take the wheel. Lee doesn't just leave you hanging with theory; he dishes out practical advice too. From handling the awkwardness of being the odd one out to finding your tribe of like-minded folks, he's got you covered. He stresses the importance of self-approval and being honest with yourself and others.
According to Lee, seeking approval from outside can be a major roadblock in your path to a sober life. He puts it simply: if you're struggling because you're not being open about your journey with friends, colleagues, or even strangers, you're letting your ego call the shots. And that, he says, is a surefire way to stay stuck. This episode is a must-listen for anyone wrestling with the social aspects of sobriety.
