The Lost Years: How Alcohol, Shame, and Self-Discovery Shape Who We Become

What if the “worst” years of your life were actually the beginning of your healing?   In this conversation with Lindsey Van Wagner, author of Spirit Vigilante, we explore how redefining addiction as sickness, not badness can open the door to grace, self-understanding, and freedom. Lindsey shares her raw story of living with bipolar II disorder, the lies she told to survive, and how she learned to turn self-hatred into self-compassion.   We dive into: – The Lost Years — why reframing chaos as illness changed everything – The Forever Question — how to stop obsessing about never again and win today instead – Lies as a Second Job — the freedom that comes when you stop managing alibis – Willingness and Surrender — how to put your ego down without putting yourself down – Inside-Out Living — taking your power back from partners, parties, and promotions   If you’re struggling with alcohol-reliance and want freedom without shame, reach out to me at [email protected]. To grab Lindsey’s book Spirit Vigilante, you’ll find it on Amazon, and you can follow her journey on Instagram @spiritvigilante.   Much love & STRIVE on! – Lee   #1000DaysSoberPodcast #LeeDavy #STRIVE #SpiritVigilante #AlcoholFreeAsFuck #SelfLedLife #IFS #BipolarRecovery #HealingJourney #TraumaRecovery #AddictionAwareness #PersonalGrowth #SelfCompassion #TheLiquidLie #AFCommunity #STRIVEMethod #STRIVEFoundations #GraceOverShame #AlcoholFreeLiving
