The Alcohol ReThink Podcast with Patrick Fox 241. It's Never Too Late to Change with Ronnie Figueroa
What’s really driving your relationship with alcohol?
Get ready to hear Patrick Fox explore addiction, vulnerability, and the deeper connection many people lose when alcohol becomes a coping mechanism.
In episode 241 of The Alcohol ReThink Podcast, Patrick sits down with Ronnie Figueroa for a thoughtful conversation about addiction, healing, and what it really takes to change your relationship with alcohol.
Ronnie shares his story of growing up around alcohol and starting to drink at just 11 years old. Like many people, alcohol helped him feel more confident and less anxious, and over time it became something he relied on throughout life.
Despite building a career, earning degrees and running a successful business, drinking was still quietly influencing his health, decisions and sense of self.
After a near-death experience in his fifties, Ronnie began turning his life around. At 65 he stopped drinking, and now in his seventies and years alcohol-free, he’s living proof that it’s never too late to change your life.
Together, Patrick and Ronnie explore the deeper side of addiction recovery for men, including ego, vulnerability, and why asking for help can be the turning point many people avoid.
They also discuss Ronnie’s approach to holistic alcohol coaching, and the simple awareness practices that help people reconnect with their bodies, calm their minds, and begin creating a healthier sober life.
