  4. Beating Addiction Through Powerlifting | Mike Weshnak
Mike Weshnak is a New Jersey-based competitive powerlifter,
skateboarder, husband, father and real estate professional. Mike
joins us on LFBF episode 3 to share his incredible journey, from
rebellious youth on the Jersey Shore, through years of active
addiction, to marriage, fatherhood, and celebrating 8 years of
sobriety this January.  In this episode, Mike shares his
journey from a younger, party lifestyle in San Diego, to descending
into the depths of addiction, and eventually finding his purpose
and freedom through powerlifting and his family. Mike discusses the
impact of addiction on his relationships, and the turning point
that led him to seek help. Mike also talks about his deep passion
for powerlifting and how it has become intertwined with his
recovery journey. Mike is a walking testimony of personal growth
and transformation.  Addiction can lead to a secret life and
alter egos, causing a disconnect between one's true self and the
image presented to others. Support from loved ones, especially a
partner, can play a crucial role in recovery and provide motivation
to change. Powerlifting can serve as a positive outlet and source
of discipline for individuals in recovery, offering a sense of
purpose and accomplishment. Gratitude and acceptance of one's past
experiences, even the difficult ones, can contribute to personal
growth and resilience.  Chapters - 00:00 Early Years and Move
