Unmasking High-Functioning Alcoholism: Steve Ward's Journey

Maybe being high-functioning doesn't mean that you're not an alcoholic, and perhaps being active in church doesn't mean alcohol has not become an idol, and it doesn't change the fact that getting drunk is disobedience.
Have you ever wondered if being 'high-functioning' means you're in control? Steve Ward, the founder of 'The Next Right STEPS' podcast, shares his gripping story of living as a high-functioning alcoholic. For decades, Steve juggled a successful career and personal life while secretly battling alcohol addiction. This episode dives deep into his experiences, shedding light on how his outward success masked a serious problem that went unnoticed for years.
Steve opens up about the moment he realized that alcohol was controlling him more than he was controlling it. He discusses the toll it took on his mental health and relationships, and the pivotal decision to quit drinking. This isn't just a tale of struggle; it's a powerful narrative of hope and transformation. Steve reveals the benefits he's discovered in an alcohol-free life, including newfound purpose and spiritual growth.
He also shares valuable tips for supporting loved ones who might be facing similar battles. Whether you're struggling with alcohol yourself or know someone who is, Steve's story offers practical advice and inspiration for taking those crucial steps toward a healthier, happier life.
