In this candid conversation, Jmo sits down with Olympic gold medalist Matthew Mitcham.
Where Matthew discusses reaching over ten years of continuous sobriety after overcoming a severe crystal meth addiction.
He reflects on his journey through rehab and 12-step recovery, breaking down how he unlearned deep-seated patterns of low self-esteem and perfectionism that once dominated his life.
Matthew discusses the emotional reality of learning to be comfortable in his own company after decades of back-to-back relationships, tackling the fear of isolation, and avoiding the trap of swapping one addiction for another.
He also shares his practical daily "mental health maintenance" routine, explaining why keeping his mindset healthy requires ongoing work, self-inventories, and a commitment to processing rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD) without slipping into old habits.
