🎙 Meet Doug Gelling: A STRIVER who decided to rewrite the script of his life by quitting alcohol in 2016. Far from hitting "rock bottom," Doug realized that his life, marred by alcohol dependence, was on an unsustainable path that affected his health and relationships.
🌱 Well-Being & Philosophy: Since waving goodbye to alcohol, Doug has embarked on a transformative journey. Rooted in discipline, fitness, spirituality, and a deep commitment to serving others, he's a testament to what can happen when you align your life with your values.
📚 Mindfulness, Buddhism, and Stoicism: While he doesn’t identify himself as a Buddhist, Doug is a practicing Stoic with a daily mindfulness routine. His focus on these philosophies has served as the backbone for his remarkable turnaround.
💡 Guiding Principle: Inspired by Dr. BJ Miller, Doug's life mantra can be summed up as: "Life is precious because it ends." In his own words, "Nothing that has an unlimited supply is precious. As I’ve gotten older, I understand that each day is truly a precious gift. I will not waste another one of them."
Join us for an inspiring, insightful, and deeply personal conversation with Doug Gelling. Learn how he managed to break free from the clutches of alcohol, and how you too can transform your life by focusing on what truly matters.

Episode 1 - Before Day One: The Roots of My Struggle
In this premiere episode of "The AFAF Shift: Unearthing My Past to Build a SELF-led Future, " host Lee Davy takes listeners on a deep and intimate journey back to his beginnings - from before he was born.
In this episode, you'll discover
1. The traumatic circumstances of Lee's birth and how the feelings of fear, confusion, shame, guilt, and abandonment experienced by his young mother imprinted on him before he ever took his first breath.
2. How our physiological makeup can be shaped by trauma even before birth.
3. The struggles Lee faced as a half-Chinese child in a predominantly white community, the feeling of always being different, and the pressures that led him to seek refuge and acceptance in alcohol.
4. A brief glimpse into Lee's early childhood years, living with his grandparents and mother's siblings, and the significant change when his mother met the man Lee would know as his father.
5. The concept of the 'window of tolerance' and how trauma can lead to challenges in maintaining it.
Key quotes from the episode
- "Trauma doesn't need you to be aware or conscious to set its roots in you. It can develop in your physiology before you even enter this world."
- "Being half-Chinese in a predominantly white community, I felt the sting of difference, the longing to belong."
- "The intense reactions I had when interacting with other children were signposts. Signposts pointing to a trauma that started before birth and resurfaced throughout my life."
