UnHammered – Episode 42
"Every 2 to 3 minutes, someone dies from addiction. That’s not just a number—it’s someone’s son, daughter, parent, best friend. And today, we’re talking about it."
In this episode of UnHammered, I dig into the brutal reality of addiction—the numbers, the stories, and why staying sober isn’t just about us, it’s about the people who never got the chance. We’ll talk about the frustration of feeling stuck, the grind of pushing forward when nothing seems to be working, and how to keep going when you’re out of gas.
Plus, I’ll share some raw thoughts on burnout, building something from nothing, and why I sometimes wonder if I’m wasting my time—or if I’m actually right where I need to be. And, as always, we’ll crack open the Big Book and see what wisdom it has for us today.
So, let’s get into it.
