How do you navigate life when storms, personal, professional, and emotional, hit all at once? In this episode of No Street Lights Podcast, we sit down with David J. Greer: sailor, entrepreneur, coach, and recovery mentor. With over 20,000 nautical miles under sail, a successful software company under his belt, and 16 years of sobriety, David knows what it means to face the storm and choose a new course.David shares his journey from being adopted at birth and pressured to take over his family’s business, to instead pursuing his own path in computer science and co-founding Robell, a global software company. He opens up about the challenges of business partnerships, investment strategies, and the hard choices that come with risk. But at the heart of his story is recovery: the years he spent using alcohol to cope, the moment he finally admitted he was an alcoholic, and the transformative power of community in sobriety.From sailing with his children across the Mediterranean to slowing down in order to speed up, David offers insights into resilience, patience, and mentorship. His message is simple yet profound: no matter how dark life feels, there is always hope and the courage to ask for help is a strength, not a weakness.✨ Things You’ll Find in This Episode:How David built and sold a successful software company, RobellWhy “slow down to speed up” became his guiding life and business principleThe impact of recovery on family, work, and legacySailing 20,000+ nautical miles and the lessons of the seaPractical strategies for investments and financial planningWhy holding space for others is one of the greatest acts of service in recoveryDavid’s personal journey to over 6,000 days of sobrietyGuest Links & Resources:🌐 David’s Website: https://coachdjgreer.com/📖 Book: Wind in Your Sails https://www.amazon.com/WIND-YOUR-SAILS-Strategies-Entrepreneurial-ebook/dp/B00TRPZW3O/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1571864948&sr=8-1📩 Free Coaching Session: Reach out via David’s website for a complimentary 1-hour session: https://coachdjgreer.com/contact/🎧 Watch or Listen Now➡️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NoStreetLightsPodcast➡️ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/6LIaDquk2li94WvC6XaITR➡️ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/no-street-lights-podcast-real-stories-on-mental-health/id1696321025🌐 Website: https://nostreetlights.org✨ Join the NSLP Community➡️ Patreon (Free & Paid Tiers): https://www.patreon.com/NoStreetLights➡️ Discord: https://discord.gg/PdYNqXgn➡️ Need help now?
