Shane shares the harrowing truth behind his battle with alcohol addiction — from blackouts and hallucinations to a life-altering breakdown that nearly cost him everything. For years, he used alcohol to cope with pain, pressure, and identity loss. But after hitting rock bottom — physically, emotionally, and spiritually — he chose to become sober.

Quitting Alcohol Begins with Brutal Honesty

Before recovery, Shane had to confront the truth: alcohol wasn’t helping him cope — it was destroying him. Real change started the moment he stopped lying to himself.

Rock Bottom Looks Different for Everyone

Shane’s alcohol-induced breakdown included hallucinations, body spasms, and total disconnection. For others, it might be losing relationships or waking up with regret. If it feels like “too much,” it probably is.

Relapse Is a Lesson, Not the End

After three years sober, one beer spiraled Shane back into nightly drinking. But that relapse taught him what real commitment and self-awareness looked like. It’s a reminder that sobriety is a daily choice.

Sobriety Reveals Who Your Real Friends Are

When Shane publicly committed to quitting, he lost people — but he gained peace. Sobriety often means outgrowing people whose lifestyles revolve around drinking.

The Gift of Sobriety Is Clarity

Alcohol clouded Shane’s mind for years. Sobriety gave him something no drink ever could: the ability to think clearly, live with purpose, and truly show up for his family and himself.
