My name is Ryan Schmalz and I have faced alcohol addiction from a young age of 14.After experiencing constant hangxiety and shame in my late 20s, I made a firm decision to quit drinking for good.It wasn't an easy journey, as it took me multiple attempts to become sober. However, something finally clicked when I realized that I wanted to quit drinking more than anything else in the world.Now, I aim to motivate and encourage those who are sober curious or trying to overcome addiction.While I am willing to help anyone who is seeking sobriety, I am particularly passionate about assisting people in their 20s and 30s.Unfortunately, our society often glorifies drinking as a symbol of coolness and sexiness.However, my own experiences have taught me that it does the opposite.Choosing to be sober at a younger age has opened up numerous personal, professional, and spiritual opportunities for me.My goal is to help people see that on the other side of addiction and alcoholism is where your true, most authentic self lies.I hope to create a community where everyone can share their sober journey and inspire others to continue on their path towards sobriety.Social Accounts:Blog: sobermountain.com (work in progress)IG: @thesobermountainYT: The Sober Mountain

Ben Tuff grew up splitting his time between Atlanta, GA and Jamestown, RI.He is one of six kids and has an identical twin brother named Chris. Ben's sport of choice was soccer and he played competitively for Lovett and his club team keeping the Tuff family legacy alive by playing goalkeeper.He attended Colby College where he met his now wife, Gretchen and treasured his times working at a sailing instructor and boat captain in the British Virgin Islands.Instead of playing soccer, Ben enjoyed skiing and playing recreational soccer and taking part in the all the other recreational activities that come with the college experience.Between Jamestown and the BVI, Ben developed a lifelong appreciation for the ocean.Ben is a lifelong educator and has had the privilege of working with hundreds of boarding students from across the world. Upon graduating from Colby, Ben became a teacher at two Junior Boarding Schools and two boarding high schools.Caught up in the pressures of boarding school life, Ben found that his dependence on alcohol steadily increased to an addiction. In 2012, Ben made the life-altering decision to break free of the hold that the addiction to alcohol had on him.After five weeks in the rehabilitation hospital Silver Hill, Ben was ready to head into the world without looking back.Despite not knowing how to swim, the sport of triathlon arrived quickly in his life.After seven years of competitive triathlon, Ben made the switch to marathon swimming. Despite not being able to swim a single lap, Ben discovered that with a little time, energy, and dedication, he could improve his distance.After many crossings from Newport, RI to Jamestown, RI on Save the Bay Swims, Ben throttled it up with the 12.5 Miles FKCC Swim Around Key West.After that, he couldn't stop and completed a 21-mile swim around Jamestown, a 19-mile swim from Block Island to Jamestown, and most recently swimming the length of Narragansett Bay by swimming 24 miles from Providence, RI to Jamestown, RI. Esteemed producer, Matt Corliss, chronicled Ben's journey to sobriety and the parallels of his recent swim. The film, “Swim Tuff: How I Swam my Way Out of the Bottle” is projected to be released Spring 2023.For Ben, swimming has become an outlet where he processes life's problems and appreciates the peace of moving in the water. Ben's goal of making this movie and getting the message of addiction out to the world is to destigmatize the topic while giving hope to those who suffer or knows someone who suffers from addiction. When not giving speeches or screenings of the movie, Ben lives in Peru, Vermont with his wife Gretchen and two children, Wyatt and Maisie.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ieaYrqYuIFc@ben.tuffhttps://www.facebook.com/BenTuff?mibextid=LQQJ4d

"You have a better version of yourself waiting to be released!” Ken Makimsy Middleton believes there's EXTRAORDINARY inside all of us and alcohol prevents that person from ever existing. For so many of us growing up, we were only warned of the dangers of drinking by one simple standard: Don't become an alcoholic. That was it. As long as you did not fall over into that category of being someone who needed to attend AA meetings or rehab, then you were pretty much okay. What this didn't account for was all the people who were imbibing alcohol on a consistent basis who just weren't reaching their full potential because of it. This book is written as a public service announcement to all of those people. Its purpose is to educate the reader on all the ways alcohol holds us back in life of which we aren't aware and how our lives can be so much better if we are willing to give alcohol-consciousness (the awareness of this truth and daily decision-making related to it) a chance. Come embark on this journey and learn all the things you never knew about alcohol and then make the decision of whether you'll attempt a life of alcohol-consciousness or continue to be Bamboozled. ✅ https://www.instagram.com/kenmmiddleton/✅ https://linktr.ee/kenmmiddleton
