Chris G on the destructive nature of corporate drinking culture

Content warning: Drinking alcohol; and addiction. Chris' journey with substance dependence began like many others - seeking comfort and connection through alcohol use in his youth. Eventually it became a coping mechanism for anxiety, depression and the high-pressure culture of his career in financial services. The COVID-19 pandemic was a tipping point, and Chris made the brave decision to seek treatment options through his doctor and ultimately the Clean Slate Clinic's program. In this episode, I sit down with Chris to unpack his recovery journey and discuss the destructive nature of corporate drinking culture. You’ll also hear from Dr Chris Davis, Co-Founder & Chief Medical Officer at Clean Slate Clinic, for his clinical insights.
