He never imagined he could continue his DJ career if he left behind drugs and alcohol.

Internationally known DJ and nightclub promoter Ross Mac is now nearly 11 years sober but when he began his sober journey, Ross didn’t know anyone else who had found sobriety. In this intimate discussion that touches on challenges in finding sobriety in the music industry and the rise of sober events, Ross expresses the great importance of community support in recovery. 

Ross’ story is highlighted by honest anecdotes about relapses, the influence of his wife in seeking help, and how he eventually found great strength through recovery meetings. Ross is a trustee for the Men And Their Emotions (MATE) and the Phoenix Addiction Treatment Solutions Charity. Check them out in the links below.
