Just like before that, I was addicted to being a role model and example to my cousins. I certainly think that cross addictions are a real thing. And I think that at the root of all that, it is just accepting ourselves for who we are and where we are. And I think as a person that has an addictive personality too, I'm always looking for that hit somewhere.

And sometimes when I achieve something in my work or something really works out, It can feel the same in my brain. So I think that I know that going through what I went through in recovery, I learned a lot. So I notice now when those things are happening when I was unaware before and I can do something about it. But I also think that life is a constant process.

we need to be like looking at our lives at all times and being like, what are the things that I need to change? Because it's not just like, okay. I went to treatment and now I'm good for the rest of my life. Or I worked out one time and now I'm fit. You know, it is a constant, um, that's what living fully, I think is, it is constantly choosing to, no, I want to live. I don't want to live here.

I want to live here. You know, no, I don't want to do, I can do this better. I can be a better parent or be a better person in my business. I can be a better boss. I can be a healthier person. I can do that thing less. Um, it's, it's a constant re-awareness and yes, cross addictions are real things.

I was actually in treatment with a lady who had been sober for like 20 or 30 years and she was there for a shopping addiction, you know, and she was sober from drugs and alcohol still. And she, and it was a really fascinating thing to see.

And I really appreciated her sharing her story because it, it made me aware that like, you know, when you let go of one thing, it's like you want to grab onto something else. And, uh, Yeah, I think it's a natural tendency of the human being. For sure. What role does faith play in your life? Oh, gosh. Faith has played... Faith has been...

at the top of my pyramid in the very worst times in my life and in the very best times in my life. When I was at the very end of the road with, right before I went to treatment, I used to run, I lived on Music Row in Nashville, Tennessee. And the church that I went to was two miles from where I used to live. And I used to say the rosary and I would run, say the rosary all the way to this church.

And I would go into this church and there was nobody in this church. And I was really, really struggling. And I couldn't really pinpoint what it was. I didn't see it as like, this is addiction, but I felt so hopeless and so far from the person that I knew I wanted to be.

And I was really disappointed in myself and what I'd become after how I'd been raised and all these things that I achieved in my life. I was just really disappointed in what I had become because I just couldn't achieve anymore. I couldn't keep a job. And I felt like my family was starting to pull away from me because I was becoming unpleasant to be around. I was just a shell of a person.

And I used to go into this church and I would light candles and I would kneel down in front of like the altar. And I would like, I can remember like it would be in the summer because I went to treatment in the spring and I would like press my arms down on the floor and it was like this marble floor and it was like so cold. And I would just be, I would just say like, I'm sorry.
