Send us Fan Mail After a five-month break, Corey is back with B Reeves from New Waters Recovery for a conversation on sobriety, mental health, treatment, meditation, and purpose-driven work. B shares what New Waters Recovery actually does, from detox and residential treatment to psychological assessments, and explains why separating your job from your personal recovery is critical for long-term sobriety. Corey and B also get into the reality of working in the recovery field, the discipline required to maintain a program, and why willingness matters more than motivation. They talk in depth about transcendental meditation, how it supports peace, clarity, and conscious contact, and why both of them see it as a major part of spiritual growth. The conversation also explores second chances, employment for people in recovery, the challenges of early sobriety, and how meaningful work can help rebuild confidence and direction. This episode is a practical conversation about recovery that goes beyond quitting substances. It is about doing the work, building structure, finding purpose, and creating a life worth protecting. In this episode, Corey and B discuss: What New Waters Recovery offers beyond detox, including mental health assessments and residential treatment, why treatment and recovery are often misunderstood, how B approaches outreach, conferences, and building trusted referral relationships, the importance of not letting your job become your recovery, the concept of being a “two hatter” in recovery and treatment work, how transcendental meditation has helped both Corey and B find more peace and clarity, why meditation can be the missing piece in recovery, the difference between stopping drinking and actually learning how to live, sober curiosity, spiritual growth, and conscious contact, ibogaine, ayahuasca, and the question of shortcuts in recovery, Corey’s new mission to connect people in recovery with second-chance employers, why people in recovery often become exceptional employees, the value of structure, accountability, and willingness in long-term sobriety. https://newwatersrecovery.com https://newpathemployment.com https:newpathemployment.com  https://www.audible.com/pd/9-Simple-Steps-to-Sell-More-ht-Audiobook/B0D4SJYD4Q?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=library_overflow https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Steps-Sell-More-Stereotypes-ebook/dp/B0BRNSFYG6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1OSB7HX6FQMHS&keywords=corey+berrier&qid=1674232549&sprefix=%2Caps%2C93&sr=8-1  https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreysalescoach/

Send us Fan Mail Ever notice how hard you grip outcomes when you’re nervous—then watch everything slip anyway? We dig into a counterintuitive truth that changed our lives: releasing control doesn’t make you careless, it makes you effective. From sobriety to sales calls, first dates to job interviews, we connect the dots between patience, presence, and authenticity—and why expectations so often become premeditated resentments. We unpack the early myth of instant transformation in recovery and replace it with practical tools: sit with discomfort, practice consistently, and let time compound. Then we map those lessons to high-pressure moments at work. After a tough call, we walk through a fast reset: debrief the objections, reframe the story, ask for help if you need it, and step into the next conversation clean. You’ll hear how a simple shift from outcome-chasing to service-first—What does this person need right now?—boosts trust, surfaces real blockers, and prevents you from carrying one loss into your next opportunity. Honesty sits at the center of all of it. We talk about shedding masks, staying the same person on and off the mic, and why misalignment breeds anxiety and churn in business and relationships. Not every prospect is your customer, not every match is your partner, and that’s okay. When you respect fit, follow a sound process, and stay present, decisions come easier—and results often improve without the pressure. We close with gratitude for this community and a reminder that asking for help is not a failure of willpower but a pathway to connection and growth.

Send us Fan Mail Fear of rejection can run your day without saying a word. I’ve felt it in rehab bunkhouses, in church pews that taught guilt over growth, and across kitchen tables where a homeowner just wanted their AC to work and their evening back. That same fear fuels the masks we wear, the discounts we offer too soon, and the way we beat ourselves up on the drive home. So I pulled the thread from the beginning: where does imposter syndrome start, how does it hijack sales, and what daily choices make that voice lose its power? We start with the messy parts: performing to be safe, confusing approval with belonging, and how organized religion shaped and then shattered some of my early beliefs. From there, the focus turns practical. I walk through how to read body language, ask sharper questions, and slow down enough to uncover the real blocker behind a hesitant buyer. We get honest about tonality and ego—why being the expert doesn’t give you license to steamroll, and how letting someone finish can save a deal. You’ll hear why “I don’t know; I’ll get back to you” is a trust builder, not a weakness, especially when talking with engineers or highly technical clients. Then we tackle value, pricing, and boundaries. Not everyone is your customer, and chasing chronic discounters will hollow out your calendar and your confidence. I unpack the true cost of a “free” van roll, how to teach value without apology, and why clean presentation—uniform, breath, clarity—sells before words do. Finally, we zoom in on the inner work: cutting self‑talk that spirals, making quick amends, and stacking esteemable actions that make you the same person when eyes are on you and when they’re not. Simple routines like breathing, prayer or meditation, the gym, and a few intentional calls become the spine that steadies your day. If this hits home, press play, take what serves you, and try one habit for a week.

Send us Fan Mail What if the confidence you’ve been chasing is really a mask that’s wearing you down? I open up about imposter syndrome, fear of rejection, and the years I used alcohol and drugs to feel like I belonged. The stories aren’t pretty—Vegas couches, dangerous company, and the slow erosion of self-worth—but they’re true, and they explain why shortcuts to confidence always collapse. Sobriety didn’t magically erase my doubts; it gave me clear ground to do the work. I talk through the humbling season of losing jobs, driving Uber to keep moving, and learning to accept where I am instead of clinging to a fantasy of where I should be. We get into practical tools: using transcendental meditation to sit still and face hard truths, putting action behind prayer, and choosing surrender over force so progress doesn’t rely on white-knuckling everything alone. I share how making amends—especially around a stalled AI venture—helped loosen the grip of imposter thoughts and made selling from service feel possible again. You’ll also hear why real community matters. Recovery gave me people who show up, no questions asked, and that kind of support flips the script on isolation. Along the way, a carful of executives reminded me that even polished professionals wrestle with the same fears. If you’re leaning on alcohol or weed to outrun rejection, consider this a clear warning: the bill comes due, and it’s brutal. There’s a better path built on honesty, small daily actions, and faith that meets you halfway. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs it, and leave a quick review.

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of the Successful Life Podcast, host Corey Berrier takes a deep dive into the challenging topic of relapse and addiction, sharing his personal journey and insights. Corey discusses the struggles of maintaining sobriety, the pitfalls of relapse, and the exhausting cycle of addiction. He highlights the illusion of alcohol as a friend, the consequences of addiction on personal and professional life, and the often-overlooked aspect of rebuilding trust in oneself. Corey also talks about the importance of community and support in recovery and how practices like transcendental meditation have played a crucial role in his journey. This episode is a heartfelt and honest reflection on the path to recovery and the ongoing efforts to maintain a leadership mindset in the face of life's challenges. 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast 01:04 Personal Relapse Story 02:43 The Struggle with Alcoholism 06:45 The Turning Point 11:57 The Road to Recovery 18:15 Maintaining Sobriety 23:30 The Power of Meditation 27:27 Final Thoughts and Encouragement https:newpathemployment.com  https://www.audible.com/pd/9-Simple-Steps-to-Sell-More-ht-Audiobook/B0D4SJYD4Q?source_code=ASSORAP0511160006&share_location=library_overflow https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Steps-Sell-More-Stereotypes-ebook/dp/B0BRNSFYG6/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1OSB7HX6FQMHS&keywords=corey+berrier&qid=1674232549&sprefix=%2Caps%2C93&sr=8-1  https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreysalescoach/

Send us Fan Mail Ever notice how the same habits that stabilize recovery also stabilize your pipeline? We dig into the leadership mindset that sits beneath selling, sobriety, and self-mastery, and why the strongest credibility comes from consistency, not a job title. From the first minute, we challenge the blame game and replace it with ownership—controlling the process in sales and our actions in life—so results stop being random and start being repeatable. We unpack emotional sobriety as a competitive edge: the ability to stay calm when deals wobble, to pause instead of panic, and to meet objections with curiosity. That shift turns pressure into empathy and fear into trust. Along the way, we show how feedback and humility create an ongoing growth loop. Coachability beats charisma, and pride isolates; the people who keep winning ask what could I have done better even when they win, then translate that insight into the next call, the next meeting, the next day sober. You’ll hear practical standards you can apply right now: prepare before you perform, track your reps, and model the behavior you want from your team. We talk about moving from achievement to contribution—service in recovery and value in sales—and how alignment with your values attracts the right clients, mentors, and opportunities. Titles don’t lead; predictable integrity does. When you lead yourself first, you build a life and a business that others can trust. If this resonated, share it with someone who needs a reset.

Send us Fan Mail What if your job title isn’t who you are, and the real proof of character shows up in the choices you make when no one is watching? We dig into that question through the lens of recovery, responsibility, and the everyday habits that either build integrity or break it down. From asking for help to making amends, we unpack how sober clarity turns micro resentments into momentum and why quiet, ten-minute pauses can reveal more about your life than an hour of doom scrolling. I share the uncomfortable truths I had to face: fear of rejection, low self-worth, and the cost of not asking for what I need at work and at home. We talk through a simple silence practice to cut through noise, the opportunity cost of social media, and the subtle ways outrage hijacks attention. Then we connect those lessons to sales, where pressure and shortcuts often masquerade as skill. You’ll hear a practical script for presenting honest options without manipulation, how to ask better questions when a customer says no, and why feedback—however painful—becomes your fastest lever for growth. This conversation is a call to choose the long game: integrity over shortcuts, responsibility over blame, and curiosity over fear. If you’ve ever felt weighed down by tiny resentments, stuck in distraction loops, or tempted to sell something you wouldn’t sell to your own mom, this is your reset.

Send us Fan Mail Ready for a reality check that actually sticks? I walked into a firefighter tryout convinced I’d breeze through on grit and lifting strength—and nearly blacked out during the PACER test. That moment of shock became a catalyst: exposing my cardio blind spot, deflating my ego, and forcing a return to fundamentals that real performance demands. We unpack how a strict carnivore diet kept my weight steady while masking a glaring conditioning gap, and why “I hate cardio” isn’t a strategy. I share the simple, sustainable interval plan that rebuilt capacity: short sprints, measured rest, and hybrid sessions that weave lifting with conditioning for a practical HIIT-style rhythm. No heroics—just consistent wins that retrain pace, breathing, and recovery. Along the way, I dig into the mindset traps that derail progress, from the seductive “I’m the exception” story to the endless “I’ll start tomorrow” promise that never lands. There’s also a hard truth about control: you can’t change someone who isn’t ready. We talk about the emotional toll of watching a partner or friend self-sabotage, the resentment that creeps in, and how to pivot toward responsibility you actually own. When you drop the urge to manage other people, you gain energy to improve your habits, set better boundaries, and model the change that invites others without pushing them away. If you’re craving honest fitness talk, real-world habit change, and a mindset reset that respects biology, this one’s for you.

Send us Fan Mail The hardest truth we learned in recovery wasn’t about alcohol—it was about control. For years we tried to push, persuade, and rescue our way into peace, only to end up exhausted and resentful. Then two small words flipped everything: let them. Let them choose. Let them stay. Let them go. Let them misunderstand. And let us choose our peace, our boundaries, and our focus. We explore how the “Let Them” Theory reframes love, leadership, and sobriety without sliding into passivity. Control looks like care, but it’s fear wearing a friendly mask. We share real stories of trying to fix partners, employees, and friends, and how accepting people’s agency made room for real connection—and for those who are actually aligned to step in. You’ll hear why love without boundaries becomes chaos, how rescuing steals growth, and why allowing people to be wrong about you is a fast track to freedom. We also unpack the surprising link between addiction and control, and why quiet consistency becomes more influential than any speech. If you’ve ever felt responsible for everyone else’s choices—or felt triggered when they ignore your advice—take our practical tool with you: the Five Whys. Keep asking why until you move from blame to root-cause truth. Paired with surrender and spiritual trust, this shift calms your nervous system, clarifies what’s yours to carry, and helps you stop arguing with reality. Let them live their story while you live yours—with integrity, compassion, and clear boundaries.

Send us Fan Mail What if the most radical form of freedom is simply waking up clear—and staying that way? Corey opens up about life on both sides of the bottle and what changed when he traded chaos for consistency: mornings that don’t start in shame, a mind that doesn’t spin stories, and relationships built on truth instead of excuses. It’s a candid walk through the quiet wins that stack into a different life: reliability, emotional balance, and the kind of peace you can feel in your chest. We dig into how trust is earned back one action at a time and why predictability—once dismissed as boring—turns out to be a gift. Corey breaks down the physical reset of sobriety, from real sleep to steady energy, and how that stability unlocks self-worth that isn’t tied to performance. We talk amends as responsibility, not a shortcut to forgiveness, and how consistency rewires identity. There’s purpose here too: service to newcomers, reaching back with a steady hand, and rediscovering creativity that addiction numbed. Financial stability shows up as part of the change—paying bills, saving a bit, planning ahead—because peace also lives in the practical. By the end, gratitude has a new shape: not denial of pain, but a clear-eyed reframing that turns survival into living. If you’re curious about the real benefits of recovery—clarity, honesty, purpose, emotional regulation, financial stability, creativity, and peace of mind—this conversation offers a map grounded in experience, not clichés.

Send us Fan Mail Ever wonder why you keep falling into the same relationship patterns? Or why certain childhood memories still sting decades later? The truth might be uncomfortable: you're living out scripts handed down by your parents—scripts they inherited from their parents before them. This episode dives deep into the generational patterns that shape our lives without our permission or awareness. As your host Corey Berrier reveals his personal journey, you'll recognize how childhood experiences before age seven program your subconscious mind, creating protective masks that once saved you but now suffocate your authentic self. Whether you became the overachiever, the people-pleaser, or the tough guy, these adaptations create a fracture between who you truly are and who you believe you must be to survive. The wake-up call comes when you notice the maddening repetition in your life—different partners but same fights, different jobs but same problems. That's not coincidence; it's your inherited script running on autopilot. But here's the empowering truth: what you inherit isn't your destiny. By making the unconscious conscious, taking responsibility without blame, and establishing daily practices that anchor you through life's storms, you can break free from these patterns. The healing journey isn't about becoming someone new—it's about becoming who you were before the masks. Ready to put down the generational burdens you never asked to carry? Ready to hold the pen that rewrites your story? This episode offers both the compassionate understanding and practical wisdom to help you break the chain and finally live authentically. Your inherited past doesn't have to determine your future.

Send us Fan Mail Ever caught yourself saying "I'm responsible" while your life crumbles around you? That's what I call the illusion of responsibility—looking put-together while avoiding ownership of the chaos within. As a recovering alcoholic, I've mastered the art of deflection, blaming everyone from my boss to my spouse for my drinking, never stopping to ask: "What's my part in this?" The hard truth I discovered is that in every broken situation in my life, there was one common denominator—me. This revelation isn't just humbling; it's the foundation of genuine recovery. When we finally stop pointing fingers outward and direct them inward, we reclaim our power to change. Responsibility isn't a burden; it's the key that unlocks transformation. Similarly, many of us mistake survival for discipline. We congratulate ourselves for barely holding it together instead of building actual structure. True discipline begins with small, consistent actions—attending meetings, making calls when we don't want to, following through on commitments. These seemingly simple practices are seeds that grow into rhythms, transforming effort into freedom. Discipline doesn't cage us; it creates the structure that addiction destroys, offering stability in finances, health, and relationships. Recovery is about rebuilding trust with yourself one promise at a time. It's about shifting from victim to author of your own story. Whether you're struggling with addiction, depression, or feeling trapped in chaos, remember: you weren't made to struggle. Take one small step toward responsibility today. Pick one area for practicing discipline. You don't need to figure everything out at once—just plant that first seed. Your journey to freedom begins when you finally stop running and start owning your life.
