The Alcohol Free Revolution Podcast Bonus episode James interviews Steve
🎙️ Bonus Episode: In this episode, we turn the mic on our very own co-host, Steve Smith — alcohol-free performance coach, ultramarathon runner, and founder of Soberilliant.
In this special episode, Steve shares his own journey — from flair bartending and late nights in London, to Ironman finish lines and 200-mile ultramarathons. It’s a story of quiet questioning, dad-life wake-up calls, and discovering just how much more is possible without alcohol in the way.
Steve opens up about:
– Growing up around drinking and the bar culture that shaped him
– The moment he knew things had to change (but didn’t — not yet)
– The shift from foggy hangovers to focused endurance training
– How sobriety helped him become a better dad, coach, and leader
– Why he now helps high-performing dads rethink their own relationship with alcohol
If you’ve ever wondered what really changes when you stop drinking — beyond the early wins — this episode is packed with perspective, real talk, and a reminder that it’s never too late to rewrite the script.
