Thank you Simon for sharing your story. I can so relate to the awakening and liking the person you truly are once sober
Awesome fullar to listen to, his explanations are so on point. I love the “you are safe with me”. Thank you for sharing. Xx
Great story to listen to and so many good points. Love the reference to alcohol being just wet stuff in a glass with absolutely no benefits concept.’….100% true!
