Sobriety

So I'm stoked about this topic, but I'm going to throw it over to Eva right away.

Eva, what is your number one reason why you think sobriety is a superpower to career?

Sobriety is your superpower because it helps you let go of everything you need to let go of to start growing, to start moving towards your goals, to even set goals.

Sobriety is the foundation of everything you plan to do in your career and your future.

Sobriety is a

tool.

Sobriety is a tool, okay? It's not going to give you all the answers right away, but it is...

It is the most necessary thing in seeing change when you are noticing that alcohol is holding you back.

And it was for me to see, to believe that it was possible for me too.

So I eventually quit by taking a online coaching class course called Hip Sobriety School.

And so Holly Whitaker was my teacher, my coach, and she was the first person to help me see, to believe that it was possible for me too.

And then she, you know, all of the women that she was working with And the process, she was actually, I would say that she was an inspiration for what I do now, because she taught us how to change our beliefs and how to change our energy.

Davey spent years chasing his next high through drugs, alcohol, sex, and fame.

His memoir, Tin Man, Why I Traded Sex, Drugs and Parties for Sobriety, is a raw and brutally honest account of fame, addiction and redemption, featuring the eight-step framework he developed to help others find lasting sobriety and a new sense of purpose.

Today, Davey is proudly sober and owns a highly successful custom carpentry business.

From rose ceremony to recovery, welcome to the Henry Books Podcast, Davey.

I have to be in recovery because, you know, it gives me...

Sobriety gives me the space to, you know, be recovering-

Mm-hmm

... and also address the other things that are going on.

I remember when getting off 70H, it was roughly by day 2 or 3 that the tunnel starts to light up again.

Sobriety is possible, it isn't easy, but there is always a light at the end of the tunnel.

I had been one full week off 7-OH and decided to try some free cat's claw.

I was given by the guy I used to buy a bunch of 7 from at the smoke shop.

Duncan later described a childhood that still included boarding school and long periods when his father was away, But Bowie was no longer the completely absent figure of the Los Angeles years.

Sobriety and age allowed him to become dependable.

He could not undo Duncan's early childhood.

He could, however, stop making it worse.

And I think the most important thing, which has really been the main topic, is feeling safe.

Sobriety for me is safety in so many ways.

Yeah.

When we first talked about doing this episode, I thought it was going to be a funny conversation about one night stand, beer goggles and that walk of shame.

Maybe I get to say it at the beginning and the end.

Sobriety would be best.
