In the first episode of the Starve the Ego Feed the Soul Podcast I talk to my longtime friend Matthew Dugger. Matt is a recent husband, father, aspiring actor, writer, director, recovering addict from alcohol, and a musician. 

In this episode Matt and I dive deep into alcohol and drug culture in the US. We chat about his personal life story with addiction, using drugs and alcohol to combat loneliness and a low self-worth as a young man.  How he has learned to practiced self-love and come to appreciate the balance between pursuit of a career in Hollywood, his family, and his goals to work on himself throughout the process.

From love, to marriage, to friendship, to addiction this discussion is jam-packed with kernels of goodness. 

I hope you enjoy,
