In episode 33 I talks about 5 things that are keeping you from quitting drinking. I got this idea from a blog post that Tim Stoddard wrote on Sober Nation called 5 Reason You’ll Never Get Sober (and Remain Miserable).

Getting sober takes a lot of hard work. Humbling hard work. More work has been and will be required to stay sober than anything else I have ever done. Unfortunately, the majority of people are not willing, capable, open or able to overcome these obstacles that are in front of a better life in sobriety.

Also in this episode, Matthew shares about the Smart Recovery program and how counting years of sobriety isn’t the best motivation to stay sober.
