Professional Success, Private Struggle: An Aware Alumni Story

In this episode of the Well Aware Podcast, we're joined by Aware Recovery Care alumni Kieran Altieri for an honest conversation about alcoholism, professional success, and recovery. As a successful attorney, husband, and active member of his community, Kieran appeared to have everything together on the outside while privately battling alcohol dependence. Together, we explore the reality of high-functioning alcoholism, the stigma that prevents many people from seeking help, and why privacy can be such an important part of the recovery journey. Kieran also shares how mentorship, support, and connection helped him find lasting recovery, and why you don't have to lose everything before deciding to make a change.
