Let's Land the Plane:

No questions this week. An episode like this is what it is. It's the past - my past.

But it's also a hope-filled story - because my future looks much brighter than my past.

And if you're struggling - just know there is hope for you too.

Just do the next right thing:

• Get help

• Talk to someone

• Get a therapist

• Go to AA

• But create your program and start the process today

• Right now - like get up and go empty out every bottle in the house

No excuses. Be done.

Love you all - thank you for indulging me in this deeply personal episode.

See you next week!

Oh ya - and keep Transcending Human!
