Böcker av Jason Stone

There are few jobs more glamorous and seductive than that of a cruise ship entertainer. Walking up the gangway of a luxurious ship headed for warm breezes and cold pina coladas was Jason Stone's dream...especially the partying and high times that came with it, sip by sip, glass by glass. In this frank, no-holds-barred, part-self-help book and part-memoir, readers get a rare peek into the life of a cruise ship performer, onboard and off, and the many strange diversions encountered on those floating icons of excess. Unfortunately, Jason didn't pay attention to the warning signs, and he slowly became a slave to his drinking. He wasn't alone. More of us struggle today with alcohol addiction than ever before. Often we may think drinking plays too big a role in our lives, and even worry that it is affecting our health, but for many reasons we resist change. With a mix of honesty, humor, and empathy, Jason shares how he decided to seek help after one too many binges, and embarked on his journey to sobriety, wanting to live his best life without the crutch of intoxication. Through his highly relatable story, readers will better understand what can drive a person to abuse alcohol, as well as the motives that lead an addict down that insidious path. This compassionate, helpful, and jargon-free book educates readers about the power of addiction and ways to help find healing. Anyone who has struggled with alcoholism or substance abuse, or has friends or family who've suffered through it, will get tremendous value out of Jason's story.
