S3 Ep156: Justin B. Long: The Righteous Rage Of A Ten Year Old Boy

This week we are joined on the podcast by the fantastic author Justin B. Long! Justin takes us through the reasons why his drinking got out of control, stemming from his difficult childhood. If you'd have told him fifteen years ago that he is where he is today, he wouldn't have believed you. His books include his inspirational memoir The Righteous Rage of a Ten-Year-Old Boy: A Journey of Self-Discovery and his series The Adventures of the Horse Doctor’s Husband, written about his raucous adventurers with his wife who is (you guessed it) a famous horse doctor. Thank you to Justin for sharing your story with us, we're sure that his story will resonate with many of you, our dear listeners, and if you'd like to keep up to date with all things Justin, you can do so at jboydlong.com. --- 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.
