[00:00:00] James: I went to order a celebratory beer for one year alcohol free, and I went to put it to my mouth, and at the very last moment, I put the beer down and I just thought, well in one year, I've landed my dream job hosting a TV show, I've lost 30 pounds, I've got the body nature intended me to have, I'm eating well, I'm sleeping well, I'm a much more pleasant person, I'm less irritable, I think I'll just keep going.
[00:00:21] James: And I literally put the beer back down and I got the waiter's attention and said, actually I don't have the beer, I gave him a tip, and I walked out. And I haven't picked up an alcoholic drink. So I haven't drunk one drop of alcohol since 2010. And you ask me, why is this so important? I'll tell you why. In those years, subsequently, I've created two seven figure businesses, and I've created this organization called Alcohol Free Lifestyle, and we've helped tens of thousands of people now to sleep better and have a much better relationship with alcohol.
[00:00:49] James: And having a much better relationship with alcohol means saving a marriage, being more present with your children. I get all of these... Stories from people who've stopped drinking as a result of us helping them.
