Rick Shiels: I Promised My Wife I Wouldn’t Drink… Then Woke Up Not Knowing How We Got Home

Golf YouTuber Rick Shiels built a career in front of the camera, but behind the scenes, he was struggling to switch off, whether it was alcohol, his phone, or the weight of what strangers thought of him.


Rick shares how changing his relationship with alcohol and social media helped him become a healthier, more present dad, and how he learned to stop letting online hate define him.


From learning to set boundaries to questioning why we give strangers so much power over our lives, Rick's story is about taking back control of your attention, your relationships and your own sense of self.
