Replay: Don't Suffer in Silence with Nathan Walsh
Friday, 10 April, 2026
Sometimes the most dangerous pain is the one nobody sees. David sits down with his longtime friend Nathan Walsh, owner and therapist of Ascend Counseling, for a raw conversation about addiction, stigma, shame, and the courage it takes to ask for help. Nathan opens up about his own journey through alcoholism, trauma, prison, relapse, and rebuilding a life rooted in purpose. What makes this conversation so powerful is not just Nathan's professional insight, but the lived experience behind it. Together, David and Nathan unpack why so many people suffer in silence, how stigma keeps people stuck, and why healing often begins when someone simply believes in you before you can believe in yourself. 💛 This episode is a reminder for every people-first leader and every human carrying something heavy: you are not broken, you are hurting, and you do not have to do it alone.  Additional Resources: Connect with Nathan on LinkedIn Subscribe to Addicted to Betterment on YouTube!
