In this episode of Why I Left, host Brian Aquart interviews Gillian Tietz, Founder of Sober Powered Media and Host of the Sober Powered Podcast, a top 50 mental health podcast.

This episode begins our May Mental Health Awareness Month Series.

We talk openly and honestly about her personal journey with addiction and how she left her successful career as a biochemist to start her own podcast network. After struggling with alcohol addiction for years, Gillian talks about how the pandemic affected her life and work, including her decision to leave her job.

She also offers advice for those struggling with alcohol usage and encourages people to amplify the message about resources available during Mental Health Awareness Month.

You will learn about why alcohol usage and mental health are closely linked and hear Gillian's insights on how science, psychology, and compassion can be used to help people understand why they struggle to moderate or quit drinking, and how to develop the coping skills they need to stay sober.
