194. I used to drink in desperation with 22 year old Wakka Wakka man Burung Shillingsworth
Description
In this episode I catch up with Wakka Wakka man Burung Shillingsworth. Burung is 22 years old and has been on the sobriety journey for some time now.
He is on a mission to help not only indigenous kids but everyone to get rid of the booze.
Burung talks about
Being open to try new things.
How alcohol disconnects us from the connection to spirit and country.
Protecting your energy and letting go of toxic friendships.
How from the first drink alcohol caused chaos in his life.
Why his family are so important to him and his sobriety.
How he drank to get drunk, not for fun.
The energy he feels from sobriety.
