Sober Disclosure
Episode 28: Pierre – Sobriety, Setbacks, and Serious Gains
In Episode 28 of Sober Disclosure, Breezy and Jimmy welcome a high-energy guest with an even higher recovery IQ—Pierre, Jimmy’s personal fitness coach and a powerhouse of resilience, humor, and transformation. With four and a half years sober, Pierre brings a global perspective, raw honesty, and an infectious laugh to the mic.
Pierre’s journey starts in Paris, where he got sober for the first time at just 19 years old. He stayed clean for three years—but a two-year relapse followed, one that brought him face-to-face with the questions so many wrestle with: Was I really an alcoholic? Was it something deeper? Through mental health struggles, medication, and moments of deep doubt, Pierre eventually found his way back to recovery—and this time, it stuck.
This episode is equal parts hilarious and heartfelt. From seances in treatment to a mysterious fire (yes, really), Pierre’s stories are as wild as they are revealing. He opens up about choosing not to date in his first year sober—a decision that surfaced addictive behaviors in other areas, especially around money. With a knack for sales and a hunger for escape, he dove headfirst into a lifestyle of travel, snowboarding, and unchecked spending. But no amount of external adventure could quiet the internal noise.
Together, the three talk candidly about what it’s like being young, sober, and male—navigating friendships, emotional isolation, and the struggle to find authentic connection. Pierre shares his experience of “sponsor hopping,” looking for someone to co-sign the easy way out, before finally leaning into the kind of accountability that changes everything.
Through it all, Pierre never loses his sense of humor—and that’s exactly what makes this episode so special. It’s a reminder that sobriety isn’t just about surviving. It’s about thriving, laughing, and building a life you actually want to live.
From relapse to radical honesty. From burnout to balance. From hopelessness to handstands in the gym.
New mantra: You don’t have to give up fun to get sober—you just have to give up the stuff that was killing you.
