Addiction: The Secret Struggle with Recovering Addict, CFO and Author, Colin Day (Part 2) #94
It’s always been a monumental challenge to overcome addiction, but does today’s world make it a greater struggle than ever before?
Last week’s episode of Extrology introduced the brave and remarkable story of Colin Day, whose battle with addiction is detailed in a book which, in itself, became part of the solution.
The power of writing in detaching from a stigmatising, polarising digital world is at the heart of this week’s discussion - discover Colin’s uniquely invaluable perspective on overcoming addiction in the modern age in this week’s episode of Extrology.
Lee and Colin discuss:
- What makes anorexia more impactful than the common presumption of simply not eating
- How those going through struggle can find solace in writing
- The role of the workplace in improving overall mental wellbeing
- Colin’s ‘biggest mistake’ and how to avoid it yourself in overcoming addiction

From The Podcast
Extrology
Hi I'm Lee Cooper; recruiter, connector, business owner, sports junkie, coffee snob and best of all, Dad. I'm fascinated by what drives the human spirit, and am fortunate to enjoy a job which for 25 years has afforded me the opportunity to interview literally thousands of inspiring people, from all walks of life. So rather than keep all the good stuff to myself, I figured, why not share the insight, the education and inspiration that can be gained from listening to those who've defied the odds to achieve the extraordinary. But success is such a subjective concept, the extraordinary even more so. It means different things based on different measures, to different people. The odds vary, as do the circumstances widely. The stories are unique, I wanted to understand what I could learn from those who have overcome their own unique odds, to achieve their own uniquely personal goals and to share that learning with you. That is how Extrology was born. Expect to hear from people across the spectrum, people who have risen to the challenges of life, family, community, education, health, business, sport, the arts, science, I aim to ensure as wide of mix of the extraordinary as the 7.5 billion of us on this planet can muster. Come and celebrate the human spirit at https://www.extrology.com/ - I look forward to welcoming you there. Get in touch: [email protected]Join Podchaser to...
