#7: Adam Burak: My story of overcoming alcoholism and mental health challenges

Published: May 30, 2020, 6:17 p.m.

Adam Burak is currently a Consultant at the Winkler Group.   Adam dealt with substance abuse, an alcohol addiction and binge drinking in his high school and college years. He talks about his journey of how always wanting to be the entertainer in his group led to binge drinking, what led him to  acknowledge the problem, the steps he took to become sober and maintain his sobriety, how supportive his friends were in his journey, and how his life has transformed in the positive direction in so many areas since becoming sober. 

We also talked about the stigmas of mental health issues.   This was a powerful interview and one we can all reflect on in terms of acknowledging problems in our life and making sure we're taking care of ourselves.  

As stated in the interview, Adam is a resource and would love to talk to anyone dealing with the issue. He wants to be there for anyone who wants to talk.
