"I saw booze as the excuse, not the issue"
On episode 172 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick was joined by a fellow men's life & sober coach, Paul Fitzgerald.
Paul had used alcohol as a coping mechanism for the majority of his adult life.
Toward the end of his drinking had begun to experience suicidal thoughts, and while not acting on them he remembers driving fast down the motorway not giving a f*ck whether he lived or died.
Alcohol became a problem and the ultimate way to excuse himself from taking responsibility for his life.
In this episode, Paul and Patrick explore the impact of alcohol on our identity, the challenges of quitting, and the transformative power of personal development.
Fitzy shares his experiences of feeling lost in corporate life, the role of alcohol as a coping mechanism, and the significant mindset shifts that helped him build a fulfilling life beyond drinking.
They get stuck into the importance of self-awareness, the joy of rediscovering simple pleasures, and the privilege of living authentically without the influence of alcohol.
