#123: Beyond 'Alcoholic': The Power of Identity Shift in Recovery

Tim Phillips

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the power of identity and how the way you see yourself shapes your recovery. 

We’ll talk about why continuing to call yourself an alcoholic may be reinforcing the very struggles you’re trying to escape. 

I’ll share insights from my own journey, including a life-changing realization I had at a Tony Robbins event, and why shifting your identity from "I am an alcoholic" to "I am someone who does not drink" can completely transform your sobriety.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re still chained to your past, even after getting sober, this episode is for you. It’s time to rethink the way we define ourselves—and step fully into the life we deserve.

🎧 Tune in now and let’s talk about making a real, lasting shift in your recovery.
