Living with Alcoholism (part 2) - in Conversation with Paul Babin Interesting Lives of Ordinary People

If you listened to the episode titled Living with Alcoholism, you will know that its purpose was to invite conversation around the subject of alcoholism and to create a space that was free from judgement. I was so happy when Paul Babin, having listened to the podcast episode, reached out to me and suggested we have that conversation and publish it.  Paul has been a coach, mentor and friend to me over the past few years. What you are about to hear is a slightly edited version of an unscripted conversation led by Paul in which he raised his concerns, asked me questions that helped me delve deeper and offered guidance and advice from his own experience of living with alcoholism. Unlike the previous episode, this is not a coaching session. It is a two way conversation, in which admittedly, I am doing most of the talking! I feel that we achieved a balance by tackling some heavy issues with compassion and even humour. If you found this and the previous episode helpful, please help us reach a bigger audience. You can do this by sharing the link to our podcast and by posting your feedback where possible. 

Paul is a former award winning cinematographer for several Hollywood A list movies. He turned his back on that career to become a life coach. You can listen to the podcast episode - Paul Babin - Life After Hollywood - in which Paul talks about the turning point that created that shift for him and what life lessons have made him the man he is today.
