Dai Manuel | Alcoholism, Sobriety, 10 Day Meditation, Travelling the World, Fatherhood and Family

<p>Early on in his adult life, Dai Manuel started to mask his insecurities and anxieties with alcohol, and this led to dramatic mood swings and personality traits that he didn't like. It went from a socially fun thing to actually try to escape his emotions that he couldn't deal with sober. This started a destructive path that eventually started to get out of hand.</p> <p>One of the lowest points in his life was coming home after drinking way too much, waking up late and his wife asked him "Are you being the kind of man your daughters want to marry?" That was the turning point for Dai, and since that day, he hasn't had a drink. Now, Dai is living his best life. He's found clarity, faith, and purpose in his life that he didn't have before. He hasn't had a drink in over 11 years. He quit his oppressive job of 17 years, and now travels the world with his wife and kids. He does his work online now and finds it makes more time for his family as well as his sanity.</p> <p>This is Dai Manuel in his own words, on Knockin' Doorz Down.</p> <p>For more on Dai Manuel please visit <a href='https://www.daimanuel.com/'>https://www.daimanuel.com/</a></p> <p>This episode is brought to you by Better Health.
