It didn't fire. What followed was two decades of searching \u2014 therapy, religion, hustle, two marriages, a felony, and a life spent building a character convincing enough that nobody, including him, could see the pain underneath. In this episode of I Love Being Sober, we sit down with spiritual teacher, Divine Architect, and author Elijah Kai to talk about the moment everything changed \u2014 and the truth he discovered on the other side of suffering.
