Episode Details

Is addiction really a disease? Or does personal responsibility play a bigger role in recovery than most people realize?

In this episode of That Sober Guy Podcast, Shane sits down with Dr. Tyler Evans, addiction medicine physician, public health leader, and CEO of Wellness Equity Alliance, for a thought provoking conversation about addiction, recovery, personal responsibility, and the systems that influence our health and behavior.

Together, they explore some of the most debated topics in recovery, including the disease model of addiction, the role of trauma, the power of personal choice, and whether our current approach to recovery is helping people or holding them back.

If you've ever questioned what you've been told about addiction, wondered why some people successfully quit drinking while others struggle for years, or challenged the labels and beliefs often associated with recovery, this episode will give you plenty to think about.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Is addiction a disease, a behavior, or something in between? • How personal responsibility impacts long term recovery • Why alcohol remains one of society's most accepted addictive substances • The role of trauma, environment, and individual choice in recovery • Whether recovery labels help people heal or keep them stuck • How alcohol impacts performance, leadership, and reaching your full potential

Whether you're sober curious, alcohol free, in recovery, or simply looking to optimize your health and performance, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on one of the most important topics affecting millions of people today.
