Ep 36: He Trained His Brain to Reject Alcohol—Then Had to Rebuild His Life

In this episode of Sobriety Now What?, Stuart sits down with Ian Fee to explore what recovery really looks like beyond just quitting drinking.

After decades of alcohol use, Ian shares the moment he could no longer lie to himself—and how that became the turning point in his life. He opens up about his unique experience with aversion therapy, a rarely discussed approach that helped change his relationship with alcohol.

But this conversation goes deeper than how he stopped.

It’s about what happens next.

You’ll hear what early recovery really feels like, how to face the emotions that come up, and what it takes to rebuild your life with honesty, accountability, and support.

This episode will help you:

• Understand the difference between stopping drinking and real recovery
• Feel less alone in the emotional challenges of early sobriety
• Learn how accountability and support can change everything
• Begin thinking about how to build a better life in sobriety

If you’re in early recovery—or starting to question your relationship with alcohol—this episode offers a new perspective and real hope.
