Addiction is something a lot of men are facing. Whether it's an addiction to alcohol, pornography, or drugs, it is something that can be overcome.

Today, I am joined by UFC fighter, Court McGee, to talk about his battle with addiction and his ability over the past decade to fight and win this never-ending battle. We talk about his positive upbringing, how he used fighting as an outlet, the disease of addiction, his downward spiral, and how he has overcome his drug addiction. This one is a bit different as I wanted to give Court the platform to share his story so I gave him the mic and let him run.


SHOW HIGHLIGHTS

  • The disease of addiction
  • The importance of meaning and significance
  • How ego gets in the way and magnifies addiction
  • Why people turn to self-medication
  • How to avoid lying to yourself
  • The importance of finding a team to surround yourself with
  • Developing and fostering willpower
  • The power of a support unit
  • How martial arts and other activities can help in overcoming addiction
  • How to use your pain as a catalyst for growth
  • How to use your struggles to serve others


COURT MCGEE


I'm honored to introduce you to my guest, Mr. Court McGee.

Court is a UFC fighter and the winner of the 11th season of the Ultimate Fighter. Despite his accomplishments in the ring, today, we focus on his personal life outside of it

Court spent a lot of his life hooked on just about every drug imaginable and once overdosed on heroin where he was estimated to have spent 8 minutes without a heartbeat or pulse.

There is no doubt that Court McGee is a man who knows how to fight but I am absolutely blown away with the story of his greatest battle in overcoming addiction, walking the path of long-term sobriety, how he handles adversity, and how he's taken his greatest challenge and turned himself into a force for good.
