I desperately didn’t want addiction to be part of my story…

But my highest values in life are freedom and connection. To discover the true meaning of freedom and connection I had to experience the polar opposite - addiction and numbing. 

Growing up the message I received from very well-meaning parents was that business success was all I needed in life. 

After selling my security guarding company with 1000 employees I started coaching and consulting. On the outside, it looked like I was living the dream… flying around the world first class, living in my dream beachfront apartment. On the inside, I was struggling. I was feeling cosmically lonely, numbing my pain with destructive behavior. 

I was drinking for days at a time. No one knew. 

I was deeply embarrassed and ashamed. From the moment I suspected my behavior was problematic to finally changing my habit it took 7 years. 

My problem was not drinking per se, it was the inability to be in the present moment. I was used to the discomfort of pushing through business challenges. But I was not willing to be with the discomfort of my own emotions. 

Even after I stopped drinking I continued to numb with doom scrolling and eating sugar… until I discovered there are 4 relationships involved in becoming free from all bad habits. I’ve shared these with friends and clients who also successfully became free from their bad habits.

I’ve put everything together in this free training: 4 Surprising Relationships Needed to Break Free from Bad Habits (even if you’ve tried everything and nothing has worked so far).
