What If I’m Wrong About Myself - with RJ Zimmerman
About this episode
This week, I’m joined by RJ Zimmerman - a sobriety coach, dad of two, and founder of Untapped Keg.
RJ grew up in the heaviest drinking state in the US, so choosing sobriety wasn’t exactly the easy route.
We talk about what it really means to stop numbing, the hidden signs of self-loathing, and why being willing to be wrong can change everything.
It’s honest, emotional, and full of those ‘oh wow, me too’ moments.
Highlights:
(03:12) Growing up where drinking was the norm
(11:47) The moment RJ knew he had to change
(19:05) Learning how to actually feel emotions
(24:41) Self-loathing disguised as high standards
(36:52) What if I’m wrong?
(43:19) Rewriting parenting patterns in real time
