S3 Ep216: Sean Willers: Take Back Control
Episode 216
Sunday, 18 May, 2025
Warning: this podcast contains references to recreational drugs What a story we have for you this week, courtesy of the fantastic Sean Willers! Sean is now nearly two years sober and is a lifestyle and fitness coach having been a DJ travelling all over Europe. You'll find out about how his troubled youth led to problematic drinking which then led to recreational drugs as an adult. You'll also hear about when he decided that enough was enough, he knew the only way to change was to face his issues head on. He's now using his platform to encourage people in a similar situation to where he was to take back control. Thanks so much for coming on the pod Sean and if you'd like more info on Sean you can visit his Instagram or LinkedIn. --- Get In Touch: Of course, you can always get in touch with us (publicly or privately) on our socials - @alcoholfreepod on Instagram, or search for "Over The Influence" on Facebook.
