Brian Cuban: A Lawyer's Battle with Addiction and Mental Health

For me, you know what the hardest thing was? Well, my brain became conditioned to think that this was all there was...it has to be rewired to understand that there is a whole world out there of people who don't do blow-up every night and get drunk.
Imagine being a successful attorney, yet battling inner demons that threaten to tear your life apart. That's the reality Brian Cuban faced. In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Brian opens up about his journey from addiction to sobriety, shedding light on issues often kept in the shadows. From body dysmorphic disorder and anorexia to cocaine and alcohol addiction, Brian's story is a raw and honest portrayal of struggle and recovery.
He discusses the trauma and shame that fueled his addictions and the uphill battle of rewiring his brain after years of substance abuse. Brian also highlights the unique challenges faced by legal professionals dealing with addiction, urging for greater awareness and support within the industry. If you've ever wondered how mental health issues intersect with addiction, or how one can rise from the depths of despair to become an advocate for change, this episode is a must-listen.
Brian's candidness offers hope and a reminder that seeking help is a sign of strength, not weakness.
