I had tears in my eyes.

The emotions came up like a spring that pieced the surface of the ground.

It does not happen that often but when it does it is both overwhelming and I know it is a sign that I need to pay attention too.

For the last 18 months I have put my focus on translating my sobriety journey into a guide that could help others break the cycle of addiction.

It has been the second most difficult project I have ever worked on. The first being my sobriety journey.

I know the struggle of addiction. I know the feeling of being trapped in the cycle of addiction.

My life has been transformed.

I want you to transform yours.

Earlier this week placed so much pressure on myself that a flood of emotion rose from my soul tears came to my eyes. I was full of doubt.

I needed help so I took action.

I emailed my friend Kathleen.

What I got back from her were the perfect words of encouragement including this nugget.

"You are reaching out of affirmation and I firmly believe in you and your work… Your instincts are right on target."

Addiction is the most complicated subject I have studied.

There are no easy answers.

You can read everything and even understand it. But when you implement you can feel overwhelmed.

Sometimes you need help.

This week I am launching one on one sober support.

I will teach you how to break the cycle of addition in your life.

We will do that with weekly calls and private email support.

You email me. I email you back.

No meetings. No labels. Just you and me.

If your instinct is telling you that you need to talk to someone about your drinking, then take action. Be brave and take a step with me.

Schedule a free 30 minute call.

These 30 minutes will be your time.

It will not be a time for me to pitch you the buy my one on one support program.

If you want to know more about that then ask me otherwise these 30 minutes are for you.

I look forward to speaking with you.

Always remember,

Never Give Up on Yourself. Never.

Reader I was at my neighborhood pool this week and the kids (junior high age) were playing on the diving board. This is an old school city park pool and the diving board is pretty legit. Anyway they were doing something I found very curious. In kid parlance there is a dive called "walking the plank". At least that what it was called when I was a kid 40 years ago. You can guess what this looks like. The person whose turn it is walks off the diving board. The “joke” is that your last step is a...

Reader "What Would You like to Drink?" Do you have an answer for this question? I did not for a long time. In my early days of not drinking I face a difficult moment when was going to events. (not bars, not sitting at the bar at my favorite restaurant .) When I was invited to a backyard BBQ and the host would welcome me they would then ask..... "What Would You like to Drink?" I fumbled through this answer so many times. I want to offer some insight that might help you not experience what I...

Reader I saw the red light. It was on the dashboard of my car. Not good. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out what the red light was trying to tell me. It was a icon of some sort and less helpful than "Check Engine". At least with the message "check engine" I have a direction to look. Spoiler: It was the water pump. Confession: I have a 2000 Saturn SL1. It is our second car, a distant second. Long story short, my wife really does not drive. Sure, she is on our insurance, has a drivers...
