Episode Synopsis

Today I speak to Adrian Mankopan to find out about his journey and how he is helping others to make better decisions. Adrian had previously been addicted to alcohol and found himself living in a graveyard, hating himself and life. But somewhere along the road something shifted for Adrian, and decided to turn his life around.

During this episode, Adrian shares what it was like growing up with a father and how he had a deep hatred for himself and life. This led him to try out drugs and alcohol at a young age. Adrian loved how being drunk made him feel, as it gave him the much-needed confidence to be social and stand up for himself. But alcohol only masked the pain, and soon enough he developed an addiction to alcohol which then led him to end up homeless, living in a graveyard.

Everything began to shift when Adrian started to take responsibility for his life and for where he found himself. Soon enough he was sober for weeks and opportunities started rolling in.
Today Adrian helps others understand their pain and teaches them coping mechanisms so that they do not have to reach for the bottle or engage in other destructive behaviours in order to mask the pain.

Stay tuned, this is an episode not to be missed.
