  • The Billion-Dollar Empire and a Secret Addiction – Trailer
    JOIN THE UNSPOKEN: ⁠https://patreon.com/SoberlySpeaking⁠Gordon Lownds didn’t try drugs until his 40s. By then, he was a celebrated Canadian entrepreneur who had built a business that sold for over $1.7 billion this year. On a business trip, he met a 27-year-old stripper, “the ultimate femme fatale,” as he called her, and what began as a fling soon turned into a relationship. What he didn’t realise was that she had been battling a serious drug addiction since her teens.By 48, Gordon had become a high-functioning addict himself, excelling at work while living in constant fear that one mistake would expose his secret. A stint in rehab forced him to confront lifelong mental health struggles, including narcissism, and his relationship ended in a wild saga involving bikies, blackmail, and more than $300,000. His story proves that it’s never too late to get sober and start again.BUY GORDON'S BOOK HERETrigger warning: This episode discusses substance abuse, suicide and sex. Ready to share your story? Email: ⁠⁠⁠⁠[email protected]⁠⁠⁠⁠Disclaimer: The stories and experiences shared in this episode are personal accounts told in good faith.
