EP 409: Naked Life Story - Ryan O’Connell

Ryan O’Connell is an actor and writer of the hit Nexflix series, Special. He knows intense levels of pressure, stress, and anxiety. But after growing up with a mother who struggled with alcohol, he knew alcohol dependency was a path he wouldn’t follow in his own life. Alcohol addiction found Ryan as it finds many, through other avenues of dependency. When he quit his addiction to painkillers, his glass or two of wine each night soon met him with much more, resulting in a mild hangover on a daily basis. When the pandemic revealed a real problem, Ryan knew it was time to make a change.
