Join me Jason LaChance host of the @KnockinDoorzDown podcast, certified addiction recovery coach, and mental health advocate for my sit down with special guest Ken Makimsy Middleton the author of Bamboozled…How Alcohol Makes Fools of Us All exposes alcohol for the way it subtly doesn’t ruin our lives but also doesn’t allow us to grow and develop into the person that we can become.
Ken and I not only have a lot of laughs but we dig into facts around alcohol use and why his book isn't for the alcoholic but can lend lots of insight into the negatives of alcohol use from a mental, emotional, and physical health standpoint.
We answer the following questions.
Why did Ken write a book for individuals who would consider themselves casual or normal drinkers who wouldn’t say they had a problem at all?
How did an alcohol-fueled instance that saw him and his now wife split for 6 months before their marriage lead him to explore an alcohol-free life?
How does science back how alcohol physiologically changes our brain and body to keep us trapped in a never-ending cycle of mediocrity?
What did he learn from his mother's mental health struggles?
How does a victim mentality affect decision-making as it can relate to alcohol use?
We finish our conversation with fun random questions and Ken finishes with final thoughts.
This is Ken Makimsy Middleton Knockin’ Doorz Down.
