Alex Norwood-Hill: How A Rock In Ibiza Made Him Quit Drinking
About this episode
He'd polished off a bottle of Calvados and woken up on the kitchen floor. Four in the morning, lights still on. His wife found him there.
That wasn't the moment Alex Norwood-Hill quit drinking. The real turning point came months later on a stag do in Ibiza.
Alex spent three decades in hospitality. London. Miami. Restaurants for Michael Caine. Cocaine to mow the lawn. He made martinis for three James Bonds and built a glittering life that looked like everything from the outside and felt like nothing inside.
Then he touched a rock off the coast of Ibiza and heard a voice telling him to purify. Six years sober and counting.
Today Alex is the Sober Sommelier. Reiki master. Crystal healer. Maker of an alcohol-free drink called Cordus. This is the story of how he went from rock bottom to the rock that saved him.
