Episode 252- John Mayby

Episode 252 with John Mabry

John Mabry’s charmed life took him from a private collegiate Christian education in Texas to acting on major productions including “NCIS”, “ER”, and “Superbad” – while landing national media attention from People Magazine, USA Today and Access Hollywood. However, alcoholism and addiction took him from parties at the Playboy mansion to living in a dilapidated trailer on the banks of the Cumberland River in Tennessee.

Despite a master’s degree in counseling, an invention to his name and multiple public-speaking awards, John experienced more loss than most. He lost a friend and had a leg painfully amputated in a horrifying, fatal car accident – an event that began his downward spiral into a two decade-long battle with depression, anxiety, PTSD, and substance use disorder. Things got significantly worse after he found his brother dead from a drug overdose in his Beverly Hills home. 

Although John has worked in the treatment industry, hosted a recovery podcast (High Sobriety) and excelled at sharing his story with over 6-million people around the world in years past, his more recent divorce and isolation from the pandemic caused another relapse.

Dedicating himself to a spiritual way of life like never before has completely turned his life around. Since being sober the time God has completely removed his crippling anxiety and depression and allowed John to get off antidepressants he has been on for over 20-years.
