#106 - The Dark Truth About ALCOHOL and Relationships: Why You Need to Be SOBER to Find Real Love

In this episode, I break down why I believe the highest form of love requires sobriety.

I explore how alcohol and drugs don’t just numb pain, they block us from healing the trauma that keeps us separate from love.

I share my own journey through addiction, the illusions it fed, and why real love only became possible when I stopped running from myself.

This is a deep, controversial, and honest reflection on what it means to be fully available for love, with nothing to hide behind.
