Cancel Culture, Sobriety & Identity Change - #313

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
Hello friends, welcome back to the show. My guest today is me. I featured on Sean Spooner's podcast, Life and Lessons, and I enjoyed the discussion so much that I figured I'd put it on Modern Wisdom too. There is lots more talking by me on this one, which obviously you're going to absolutely love. Today, expect to learn why identity change is so hard, what being a club promoter without nightclubs for a year has been like, why going sober is still a red pill everyone needs to take, my thoughts on cancel culture, what chapters I would include in my book, why social justice warriors fundamentally hate themselves and much more. Also last week, you may have noticed that Apple Podcasts was having some problems. This is due to them updating the CMS on their backend, whatever that means, and basically half of the world's podcasters' shows were affected. My advice is to open your phone and just go to YouTube, press subscribe on the Modern Wisdom YouTube channel. Oh, it's not even Modern Wisdom anymore. That shows how far behind I am. Search Chris Williamson and press subscribe on that YouTube channel. Every episode goes up on there on the afternoon of each day that you're used to listening. And if Apple doesn't get their act together, then you are safe and assured that you'll still be able to watch and listen on YouTube. In other news, this episode is brought to you by Surfshark VPN.

In other other news, this episode is brought to you by Active Life RX. Active Life RX want you to finally get rid of aches and pains without medication, more rest or frustration. I want to turn your weaknesses into strengths or while spending less time in the gym and more time enjoying life. Most coaches that you get just look after rehabilitation or your physiotherapy or your strength and conditioning or whatever it might be.
The guys at Active Life RX have access to doctors, coaches, physios, they have everything on staff so they can give you a complete one-stop-shop solution to get you out of pain and reclaim your fitness. I've been working with my coach Larry since the beginning of the year and although I hate him sometimes during the sessions that he makes me do, this reintroduction to the gym has been far less painful and uncomfortable than it should have been. Ruptured Achilles, we're working on that. Lower back pain I've had for three years, we're working on that.
Plus, he is one person that can deal with getting me from that rehabilitation period into fitness and then beyond. He's collaborating with other people behind the scenes to ensure that I'm getting the best movements, he's researching things when he goes away from in between different sessions, in between different weeks, he's always coming back with new ideas. It really does feel like the guys at Active Life care about their clients and if you are someone who has been suffering with injuries or limitations or niggles or just wants to get a coach that will take your training to the next level, Active Life RX is the perfect place to go.
