🎙️ From playing at Abbey Road Studios to earning a PhD from Oxford, Dr. Robb Kelly had it all—until addiction took everything. Homeless, hopeless, and nearly dead on the streets of Manchester, his turning point came not from rehab, but from a realization so deep it rewired his entire brain.
🔥 In this real, raw, and unfiltered conversation, we explore:
Why alcohol addiction recovery starts with rewiring your thinking
How even A-list celebrities struggle with mental health and addiction recovery
Why your relapse prevention strategies might not be enough
The science behind craving, trauma, and overcoming addiction challenges
What 14 months of homelessness taught Dr. Robb about healing
Why he believes alcoholics are born, not made
Why you can change—100%, for life.
💥 This episode is for you if you’ve ever thought:
“I’ve ruined everything, can I come back from this?”
“Why do I keep relapsing no matter how hard I try?”
“Is recovery really possible for someone like me?”
✨ Dr. Robb doesn’t hold back—because he believes your greatest chapter isn’t behind you… it’s waiting to be written.
