From a tough, black-shirt-wearing kid growing up in Masterton, to an accomplished CEO of a successful tech company operating on the world stage, the life of  Dave Blackwell  is a fascinating journey. His courage in sharing a little-known part of his life as an addict, and his exploration of it in this episode is truly admirable. I feel very privileged to have been a part of this conversation.

Dave notes that the  12 Step Working Guide  he refers to is worth a look, but cautions anyone attempting to find their own way through it without professional help. If listening to his story sparks a personal awakening and/or queries on how to get started for your own situation, Dave is happy to chat. Just send us an  email  and we’ll pass it on to him.
