From The City Pubs To 7 Years Sober: Sean and Lee (Rok Soba)

Sean and Lee are brothers. They started in the City of London at 16. They sat next to each other on trading floors. They drank lunches at NatWest's wine bar. They earned big money and burned through it on red wine, hidden bottles, and eventually a pub fight that landed them on the front pages and almost in prison.

Lee got sober in October 2014. Sean followed three months later, after collapsing on his girlfriend's kitchen floor on New Year's Eve and waking up in a police cell.

That was nearly seven years ago.

You'll hear about: lifelong battles with OCD and depression that the drinking only made worse; how a two-year suspended sentence saved their lives; what it's like watching your brother get sober before you do; and how a 4am dream gave Sean the words "Rocksobar" in lights and turned into a brand, an alcohol-free beer line, and a foundation now helping others rebuild their careers in recovery.

If you've ever thought you couldn't stop because of who you'd lose, this one's for you.
