A Tale of Two Recovering Addicts

AN UNFILTERED INTRO

Hi y'all! We’re Jeremy (L) & Nate (R) — two guys who discovered that addiction can be a powerful force when channeled into the right things. Being Proudly Addicted to healthy obsessions is actually great for the mind, body and soul.


JEREMY’S HIGH — “STONED WAS MY IDENTITY”

Addiction: 27-year wake-and-bake cycle—sunrise to lights-out, repeat.

Belief: “High Jeremy = Accepted Jeremy.”

Reality check: Panic-attack “heart attack,” plus a new job with random drug tests.

Aftermath: Fourteen clean months → relapse → an even uglier scare → love this wagon.

Ultimate lesson: quit or risk stroke—or worse. Get high on life.

NATE’S BUZZ — “IT’S JUST ONE DRINK”

Addiction: Nightly pours that turned into weekend blackouts.

Belief: “Functional alcoholic.”

Reality check: One blackout too many → probation + five-figure fees.

Aftermath: Sober since that run in with the law → 3 years so far.

Ultimate lesson: clearer mornings, zero lost nights, more money saved for healthy fun.


HOW THE NAME DROPPED

It wasn’t a life-or-death epiphany; it was a spontaneous feeling on Nate’s couch while Jeremy was deep into a game of Fortnite when he blurted:

“Dude, I’m proudly addicted to this game!”

The phrase hung there—first as an emotional reaction, then as a light bulb moment.

What if anything you’re passionate about could wear that label—without shame?


WHY THE NAME “PROUDLY ADDICTED”

Flip the script: Addiction doesn’t have to be tragedy; it can be raw energy.

Our take: Re-wire that energy into passions— building a lifestyle brand, inspiring others, carving powder or whatever else you can't live without.

Tagline: Inspire Possible—your story sparks the next person’s discovery.


INSPIRE POSSIBLE

We didn’t get sober by swapping addictions overnight; life smacked us hard first. But staying sober? That’s daily work—and our passions is the best spotter we’ve found. If our story lights even one more candle, our mission is working.

Be Limitless. Inspire Possible. Be Proudly Addicted to whatever fuels your soul.
