Episode 5 - Jawn McClenaghan - Alcohol

DC Fitness

In this episode I speak to my close friend Jawn who I met when I was 16 and ended up becoming best buddies, mostly through drinking. Jawn struggled with an addiction to alcohol and as it was destroying his life gave it up 7 years ago. We talk about our struggles with alcohol and how different our lives have been since we both stopped. Big thanks to Jawn for opening up and being so honest. I really hope some people can take something from this episode.
