🎙 Meet Doug Gelling: A STRIVER who decided to rewrite the script of his life by quitting alcohol in 2016. Far from hitting "rock bottom," Doug realized that his life, marred by alcohol dependence, was on an unsustainable path that affected his health and relationships.

🌱 Well-Being & Philosophy: Since waving goodbye to alcohol, Doug has embarked on a transformative journey. Rooted in discipline, fitness, spirituality, and a deep commitment to serving others, he's a testament to what can happen when you align your life with your values.

📚 Mindfulness, Buddhism, and Stoicism: While he doesn’t identify himself as a Buddhist, Doug is a practicing Stoic with a daily mindfulness routine. His focus on these philosophies has served as the backbone for his remarkable turnaround.

💡 Guiding Principle: Inspired by Dr. BJ Miller, Doug's life mantra can be summed up as: "Life is precious because it ends." In his own words, "Nothing that has an unlimited supply is precious. As I’ve gotten older, I understand that each day is truly a precious gift. I will not waste another one of them."

Join us for an inspiring, insightful, and deeply personal conversation with Doug Gelling. Learn how he managed to break free from the clutches of alcohol, and how you too can transform your life by focusing on what truly matters.
