This was such an honest, grounding read. I really appreciated how you held space for the complexity of alcohol—not as a crisis, but as a quiet question that can shift shape over a lifetime. The way you trace the seasons of your life, the clarity that comes from paying attention, and the willingness to re-examine what “steadiness” means was deeply resonant. Your openness makes it easier for the rest of us to look at our own relationship with alcohol with more curiosity than judgment.

I'm curious Phil, did the autoimmune issues ever remedy themselves?

It did! Through a lot of inner and outer work :) I've been enjoying great health for the past 2 or so years ... Thanks for asking!

It seems you eventually got down off that mountain and moved to Brazil...are you still there or did you eventually make it back to the states?
