What to write

Keep it honest. Keep it human.

You do not need to sound polished. In fact, please do not. The best reviews are the ones that sound like a real person who got something useful and wants the next person to know.

What helped?

Was it Bob, The PR Firm, The Gate, the machine, the Operator, the food work, or finally understanding why willpower kept collapsing?

What changed?

Did you stop drinking, reduce sugar, cook again, sleep better, feel clearer, calm your nervous system, or stop treating yourself like a lost cause?

What landed?

Was there a line, chapter, framework, metaphor, video, post, guide or book that made the old pattern finally make sense?

Who would you recommend it to?

Someone stuck in the drinking loop? Someone under load? Someone tired of self-help fluff? Someone who needs mechanics, not shame?

No faff or BS but plenty of humor

Read Ian every day on FB. Having huge experience of alcohol addiction amongst other things in my life since being a child, I know that Ian is the real deal, addiction, booze, food whatever, he tells it how it is, how to conquer it, how to deal with it if its someone close who is struggling. How to handle the aftermath etc etc. Tells it with such humour and hopefully helps people to get through the dark days. Inevitably it’s up to the individual in the end but Ian’s story and his experience in this field must help some people get through. I know he’s helping me every day especially by making me laugh!

I was not powerless, and you are not powerless. If you are noticing that something you’re doing on the regular, is interfering with you living your best life, you have found a great place to start!

I love Ian’s, no nonsense approach, and no shame attitude. The reality with life is that nothing changes, if nothing changes. So if you’re ready for some new thoughts, because the old ones have only gotten you this far, then dig into some of Ian’s work!

See what resonates, take some notes and feel into what he’s talking about; welcome to your new life. Nobody is coming to save you!

Finally, info in everyday language that clicks. Straight forward, to the point, no bull shit…..or sales pitch.

Read Ian’s posts everyday with anticipation! It appears we travelled a very similar road, and his writing style is mint – makes me laugh, but more importantly seriously reflect on my own behaviours! Still in the thick of my vices, but if anything is gonna make me change it’s this !

Started following Ian on Facebook at first, fell in love with the humour and descriptive posts…

Booked a one to one with Ian, just what I needed… Got exactly what I paid for, no B.S. He went above and beyond with info I needed through my email… also purchased a couple of books. Now I’m not loaded… So this was over about a year for me… I can’t recommend what he says enough…..
