“Then, little by little, more moments started happening. This sobriety thing kept showing itself to me, in big ways and in small. With each moment, it became harder and harder to run from this new truth I was discovering: life was better sober. “

“Through his reflective storytelling, Todd is able to sincerely depict the surrendering experience of giving up alcohol. Consequently, he is able to show exactly how the undeniable freedom that accompanies life on the other side truly feels. This is a book all dads should read, regardless of where they think they stand with alcohol."

“Amidst the plethora of female stories in the quit lit genre comes a much-needed male experience. Todd shares his story with humility and humor, and his words helped me piece together fragments of my own story that had been unresolved for years. Todd's voice is a beacon, especially for other men still hiding in the shadows of their shame.”

"This book is a must read for anyone who may be curious about their relationship with alcohol. No matter where you are on life’s path, you will find yourself in Todd’s game-changing words. I could not put the book down. Todd shows the reader how he has changed the trajectory of his family by choosing to live alcohol free. As Josh Brolin so perfectly wrote: “Sobriety is when your kids can look at you and trust what they see.”

"In Todd's book, "I Didn't Believe It Either," he lets us into his personal vault of stories and experiences during times when alcohol was a big part of his life. The time, effort and energy that goes into trying to drink moderately, for people who are problem drinkers, is utterly exhausting.

Todd did a wonderful job of conveying all of this in his book, and I related to multiple things in literally every chapter. His story has helped me look at my own life through a more honest lens, and he has inspired me to live a healthier lifestyle. I would recommend this book to anyone that has ever questioned their relationship with alcohol. It is an honest, open, and often hilarious read, but most importantly, it has the potential to change many lives for the better."

"After reading Todd’s book, I am impressed with how open and relatable it is. So many portions of the book relate to people's relationship with alcohol. I truly connected with the early chapters by realizing you don’t have to be a raging alcoholic to have an unhealthy relationship with Alcohol. Todd’s experiences are very relatable in many of our lives. Very proud of him and this project, and his sobriety."

"If you are considering quitting drinking or even sober curiosity, this book is a must read. Todd provides a vulnerable, witty story about his battle with alcohol and ultimate surrender to sobriety.

One of my favorite parts of Todd’s story is his newfound love for mornings. No more hangovers, no more foggy thoughts, no more struggle to drag yourself out of bed…now energized, mornings bring a sense of accomplishment, pride, and freedom.

If you have been thinking how your drinking is affecting your family and if quitting could change things, read this book. Todd talks about his experience as a dad who drank and a dad who is now sober. He’s now living instead of just along for the ride. "

About The Book

Todd was a classic gray area drinker who looked like he had it all together on the outside. But on the inside, he was tormented by his relationship with alcohol. He loved drinking and being the life of the party, yet there was so much about drinking he didn’t like: the control it had on him, how it consumed his every thought and how he felt after drinking too much.

He spent six years evaluating his relationship with alcohol and employing every moderation hack in the book. Some of them worked, but it was exhausting and the victories were always short-lived.

By 2019, Todd was growing tired of fighting his internal battle. He was worn down by the constant negotiating and obsessing, and he was sick of the torment, shame and regret. Then in the fall of that year, his wife whispered something into his ear that would end up changing his life forever. He decided to quit drinking.

Giving up alcohol was scary and overwhelming. Even though Todd knew it was the right decision, he also thought life without alcohol would be a little dull and boring, a bit like a prison sentence for not being able to “drink like a normal person.”

What he discovered, however, was that giving it up was the farthest thing from a prison sentence. “I Didn’t Believe it Either” is the raw, honest, vulnerable and sometimes funny story of Todd’s journey to quitting the one thing he thought he couldn’t live without and his discovery that sobriety is better than he ever imagined.
