Episode 9 | What The Hell About Me?

I had an ache for most of my life that I couldn't name. Couldn't describe it. Couldn't explain it. Just knew it was there, and knew that staying drunk was the most reliable way to keep it quiet for a few hours.
This episode is about what happened when I finally stopped drinking long enough to sit down with that ache and actually look at it. Not with a therapist. Not with a twelve-step program. Not with a self-help book. Just me, pen, paper, and the uncomfortable reality that the person sitting there sober wasn't someone I particularly liked.
And then what happened after that.
I also talk about what it means to be selfish. Not the kind people weaponize against you when you stop making yourself smaller for their comfort. The real kind. The necessary kind. The kind where you finally ask — who am I supposed to think about if not myself? I'm the one who's with me all the damn time.
Who are you right now? And if who you are right now isn't pleasing to you — not to anyone else, just to you — what then?
That's the whole episode.
