  • Living above the line fosters self-energy and clarity.

"I remember lying in bed, staring at my laptop screen, and the family that I had lost was glowing on my screensaver."
In this episode of the 1000 Days Sober Podcast, Lee Davy candidly shares his journey through divorce, loss, and the transformative concept of 'The Line'. He reflects on moving back into his childhood bedroom at 35, feeling invisible and powerless as his marriage crumbled and his son no longer lived with him. Lee speaks directly to divorced parents—especially dads—who feel they've lost more than just a partner.
The episode dives into the framework of living 'above the line', where self-energy flourishes, versus 'below the line', where victim consciousness takes hold. Lee discusses how understanding and applying this principle helped him regain control over his life and relationships, encouraging listeners to assess their own position on the line. With a mix of humour and sincerity, he emphasises the importance of recognising when you're below the line and making conscious efforts to rise above it.
Lee's coaching practice focuses on helping individuals live alcohol-free and self-led lives, offering support and community through the Strive Method. This episode is packed with relatable anecdotes and practical advice for anyone grappling with divorce or feeling stuck in a cycle of invisibility and despair. If you're wondering how to navigate life's toughest moments and find your way back to yourself, this episode might just have the answers you're looking for.
