In this solo episode, host Nick O’Shea reflects on the many ways substances like alcohol and drugs are used to navigate life’s challenges. Drawing from his own experiences and the stories shared on the podcast, Nick explores three key themes: using alcohol to fit in, escaping life’s difficulties through substances, and the transformative power of finding purpose.
Nick candidly shares how drinking often feels like a shortcut to connection during school years, but over time, it distances us from our authentic selves. He also unpacks the idea of using substances as an escape from pain and insecurities, a cycle that only delays real healing.
The episode takes a hopeful turn as Nick discusses how discovering a sense of purpose can help us let go of what no longer serves us. He also addresses the challenges sobriety can bring to relationships and offers insights on navigating these changes while staying true to your journey.
This heartfelt reflection is a reminder that while sobriety isn’t always easy, the freedom, clarity, and fulfilment it brings are well worth the effort.
