EP 109: Coming Clean about Sobriety with Clive Allwright

Many hairdressers associate alcohol and drugs with celebrations and having fun, and equally reach for substances to knock the edge off a rough day. This podcast is a conversation with Clive Allwright, salon owner, global educator, stylist, and industry icon coming clean about sobriety. This is a very sensitive issue and this interview is published with permission by Clive. I have tremendous respect for him for sharing his personal story to help others. I encourage you to listen with an open heart and an open mind. Addiction doesn’t discriminate and you don’t have to be drinking at breakfast or homeless to be an alcoholic or addict. Most of us hairdressers are highly functioning professionals. Juggling our businesses, family, marriages, parenthood, friendships and now lockdowns, it’s like we are constantly spinning plates. Who doesn’t deserve a bottle of wine or two to help relieve the pressure? You can just listen and learn more about the recovery and the support available. That’s why podcasts are such an accessible platform for learning and seeking information that’s evergreen, which means it is available to listen to as many times as you like wherever you are whenever you like. - - - - - - - - - - Want to learn more?
