The Story Behind Break from Alcohol

Why Break from Alcohol Exists

Clarity is the starting point for real change. When you’re honest about how alcohol shows up in your life, you reclaim the ability to choose what truly supports your well-being. Break from Alcohol was created to help you make those choices with confidence, using personal responsibility, emotional honesty, and the rebuilding of healthy relationships, especially the one you have with yourself. This is the foundation for a life you feel proud to live.

Community

What We Know

• When you begin to understand your mind, your patterns, your stress responses, and your needs, you finally see that you’re not broken; you’re human, and change is possible.
• As clarity returns, alcohol loses its grip, and you start choosing from a place of strength rather than habit or overwhelm. 
• And you never have to push your way forward with willpower alone. Lasting change grows from self-compassion, meaningful insight, and the belief that you deserve a life that feels calm, honest, and fully your own.

I'm Ross King, founder of Break from Alcohol

“Break from Alcohol was built for people who never imagined they’d reflect on their drinking but reached a moment where they knew something had to change. My goal is simple: give you the tools to finally feel like yourself again.”

My life appeared to be the perfect success story: climbing the corporate ladder, managing international teams, building thriving businesses, and passionately engaging in community service. On the outside, it looked like I had everything figured out. Yet beneath that facade, I was quietly trapped in an exhausting cycle of stress, disappointment, and alcohol.

Endless late-night client dinners, months spent on the road, and a relentless work schedule became my normal routine. Alcohol subtly transformed from a harmless social ritual into a daily necessity, a coping mechanism I justified as essential for decompressing and managing stress. Initially, it seemed innocent, even beneficial. However, over time, it drained more from my life than it contributed, stealing my energy, clouding my ambitions, and creating a barrier between the man, husband, father, and friend I genuinely desired to be.

A profound turning point arrived with deep personal loss, the tragic death of my eldest brother Kevin, who was taken by cancer at the young age of 65. His passing was an undeniable wake-up call, prompting me to confront life's brevity and realize that living without genuine presence and authenticity wasn't truly living at all. Shortly after Kevin passed, I committed wholeheartedly to breaking free from alcohol, not simply abstaining, but reclaiming control of my life.

This decision sparked a journey of self-discovery, reflection, and purposeful action. Initially, it wasn’t easy. The first weeks were challenging, filled with sleepless nights, racing thoughts, restlessness, and irritability. I had no idea how to handle stress without alcohol.

Instead of reaching for a drink, I turned to journaling. I wrote down my thoughts, even when I didn’t fully understand them. I examined my habits and motivations deeply, confronting difficult questions head-on: Why was I drinking? What was driving me to alcohol? Through dedicated journaling, meditation, and extensive research into habits, and science based methods, I began to understand myself better.

There was no immediate magical transformation, just honest, gradual improvement. There were tough days and setbacks, but ultimately, my perseverance and structured approach led to clarity, purpose, and renewed connections. Today, I've rebuilt meaningful relationships with my family, rediscovered my true passions, and constructed a life grounded in authenticity and fulfillment.

This meticulous, self-directed exploration, extensive research, professional training and certification, laid the foundation for what became the "Break From Alcohol" program incorporating the revolutionary "True Self Reset" model a structured, practical, science-based approach designed specifically to guide individuals through a life changing transformation.

If you find yourself here, perhaps you're seeking change, clarity, or you've experienced your own quiet moment of realization. No matter your motivation, know that you're not alone. I created this program to help others navigate their own journey toward taking back control over their habits.

You don’t have to face this alone, I’m here, ready to guide you through each step toward reclaiming your life and truly living in the present moment.
