I started watching you at 12 years old {now 21}. I was a daily smoker of weed/vaping for 5 years straight. Didn't miss a day. I dont know if it was covid that did it or what it was. But about 2 -3 weeks ago you uploaded and was talking about working out and you said "its either day one or one day" and that for some reason flipped a switch in my head. I deadass stopped after that video. Threw everything out. I was never a drinker or anything along those lines, but I was a heavy smoker. You saying "day one or one day" truly changed my perspective. Anyways though. Day 17 now of being sober of everything and I can finally start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!!! Thank you again
It’s not like you can’t drink! Just drink in moderation Roman and Brit! It isn’t anything to be ashamed of. Be proud of your accomplishments! 🎉 you both did wonderful for four years!!! And I feel like you both know not to get hammered. I am still proud of yall!!!
I know. Crying over 1 drink on your anniversary...and it was champagne of all drinks!? C'mon. That's a bit extreme unless you were a raging alcoholic in the past. 😆
It can be different for everyone. For some people they are scared to get into alcohol because guess what it overpowers them and they lose control over it. The alcohol controls them instead of the other way around! If that’s the case (which 95% of the time it is) it will be bad for you. My recommendation is stay away from alcohol and replace it with something healthier!
You cant drink in moderation when you dont know what a limit... 'just one more' is just words but drinking is bad. I planned to kill myself after a drink. Then drank to forget it and plan another date. Only thing that annoys me is when he says 'it is what it is'. If i had millions id do somethin. Not drink. The title is demeaning.
You can if you want to drink in moderation! Yes you have to have that will power and mindset to do so. My mom was an alcoholic. She didn’t have the mindset. I feel like Brit and Roman are strong enough to not go back to their old ways. They clearly said they don’t drink like they were they have a couple. That’s okay. They remained sober for four years! That’s awesome!!! 👏 like I said I am proud of them both and I believe they know their limits!
It's not bad that you drunk again, as long as you understand why you originally stopped and don't let drinking overtake and/or control your life then it's perfectly fine. I rarely ever drink, mostly just for special occasions (birthdays, weddings, or the occasional time I go out with mates) and it's perfectly fine imo. Being real about it and opening up about it is the first step to not letting it become a negative habit. Proud of you both. Love the honesty!!
Exactly im sober now but no one knew how bad i was drinking myself in to oblivion waking up shaking and going in to work feeling like i got hit by a dump truck for 4 years i got smashed to bits so please don't assume that you know peoples lives when you don't . And please god help those that are struggling with addiction or are homeless the government may forget but we don't god bless everyone! 😊@toldpromise
he was never addicted but the only times him and britt had arguments according to him was when they drunk. everytime they were “aggressive” with the kids was when they drunk. if they can enjoy their drinks, and continue to share the love that sobriety offered there is nothing wrong.
Get home from work, sit down and your video is uploaded a few hours prior and it's always my first click! Your helping me realize routine is a lot more important than i assumed. Thank you!
I’m loving this new content and I’m so proud of you guys being so real and vulnerable about everything. It’s always easier on everyone just being honest with yourself and everyone. Thank you so much for that. Keep killing it.
Roman! I used to work data recovery professionally, I can potentially recover that card for you if you would like! As long as nothing was filmed over it, the footage should still be there
Law of attraction on display perfectly. You say your going to drink and your subconscious eventually makes that happen, same applies with other thoughts/actions. Fascinating to think about, such a powerful tool when used correctly. Love the realness of this channel so much keep the vids up.
There’s a difference between having an occasional drink when out in a social setting and drinking every day to get by or getting blasted every time you go out. There’s nothing wrong with drinking if you’re doing it in moderation, just like anything else in life. You’re gonna have to do a lot worse than that to let anyone down! Thank you for sharing with us and being vulnerable.
Listen man there’s absolutely no reason to feel guilty about having a drink every now and then you are a responsible adult and are allowed to enjoy yourself. I was personally a self acknowledged alcoholic and some people pointed it out so I tried to get better I tried the cold turkey method and it was and is hell but I’ve come to understand it’s ok to have a couple drinks every now and then keep your head up you are still and inspiration
Thank you for being so vulnerable and real! That’s all I want to see with anyone and this is awesome. I recently got sober and it’s hard! Feels good I have 6 months soon but I’m an alcoholic I can’t just have 1 drink so no drinking for me ever again
Don't beat yourself up. I've been through it. 15 years clean from drugs and at one point drinking was an issue.... the older I get I realize I can have a drink now and then and know when to stop. I've grown as a person and we all do things on our terms. You guys are good ❤ thanks for sharing. Smile more 😊
So happy to have you back Roman. And I’m so happy that you’re being so real with us. The videos from when I was a kid were great for the time but now that I’m an adult I love the realness of your videos now
I feel like a drink or two is fine as long as you have control of yourself and your not doing anything to harm anyone it’s fine. You guys are amazing people and just keep being you that’s what we love!!! ❤
You guys are amazing for being willing to be so vulnerable. I love how real these videos are. 4 years of sobriety was an incredible accomplishment, but it's just as amazing to admit that you've changed from that and are having a drink every once in awhile.
It's nice to go out and have a drink here and there. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that. I think sobriety helped you guys with some issues you were having but nothing wrong with a drink (or a couple drinks) as long as you guys don't get back to the place you were at before. I remember you mentioned arguing more when you were drinking. Don't feel bad. You're human & you're adults over 21 lol and you've accomplished so much but also working your butts off with the new businesses and new channels 🙌 I've always looked up to you two, even before the sobriety and I still do especially now. You are, and always have been very inspirational and very positive role models to look up to.
It’s ok to drink. Just drink in moderation. Just remember to keep your cool and not drink too much. It’s a nice thing to have A drink with some friends. I just turned 21 and I’ve been watching for years since you started SmileMore
Roman the amount of respect I have for you is 100%. Your honesty in the new vlogs is a breath of fresh air. Not only for us dads and husbands but the long time fans that saw you come up. Appreciate you and know your not alone in your daily struggles. Look to the man upstairs he's got your back.
Great video, Roman and Britt! Thanks for being vournable and real. I'm also stoked for the new business stuff you've got going on. If I weren't 1500 miles away, I'd come visit
I Grew up LDS, its hammered in you as a child that drinking is terrible and makes you a terrible person. I grew up, I became who I am today because of you Roman. Drinking is not bad, having a drink to unwind, going out with friends, limit yourself and drink responsibly. I grew up in Utah.. and mormon.. I started drinking with friends and becoming myself years ago. I had to hide who I really was around my family because of how I would be judged just because I drank. January of this year I packed up all I could the dogs my wife and 6 month old kid and we moved 2000 miles away to a place we have never been and have no family or friends to start a new life. One where we wont be judged for every thing we do. There is so much more I could add to this, but you have taught me how to be myself. You videos have helped get me through some of the hardest times of my life. Thank you Roman. I have been watching for over 10 years.
✊🏾✊🏾 props man i packed up my shit and left California last year and moved to Tennessee oh boy i love it way more here i walk outside and taste freedom
Don't beat yourself up. Just know a drink or two will do. I remember when the pastor of my church visited and he drank a beer. My wife had a hard time with it secondary to her upbringing. I told her that was not out of line for a priest. I stopped cause I could not practice what I preach, 2 became 4, 4 turned into 8, 8 would turn into 16. Both my parents were alcoholics. My mother even went on 30 day dry outs is what we called them in the 60s and 70s. She would stay sober a year or two, then right back at it. Took her 4-thirty day stays over a 10 year period before she finally stopped for good. No judgment here. Appreciate the work you are doing. I've watched you since the beginning. Love you and your family. In closing, "Keep Smiling More!"
I have lived in a family full of alcoholism, and the fact that you and Brittney are so open about your journey of sobriety is special to me on a personal level. I have vowed, after seeing what my family has dealt with, to never have a drink or use drugs in my life. I'm 26 now, and I'm proud to say that I'm still on that road. You both are inspirations to me, and we're all saying it's okay. Just stay safe and healthy, and we will all still support you.
@@herobrine00700 you don’t need alcohol to have any bit of fun in your life. As long as you have great friends a great family/support system and most of all great energy you can succeed in life. Keep pushing bro. We got this. 💪🏻
Dude! I drank for almost 2 decades. It got so bad that I'd drink until I blacked out every time. I lost SO much during that time. God was the only one who could have helped me, and He did! This past January was 19 years sober. It may not sound like a big deal unless you knew me before, but I promise you, I was heading nowhere, and I was taking anyone who liked me enough down with me. I know exactly how Brit must have felt after y'all drank again. I haven't drank a drop since the Lord took that from me, but I've had dreams where I drank, abs it seemed so real that I would wake up feeling like all those years of sobriety went down the drain. I felt hopeless. But then I'd realize it was just a dream. And I'd thank God over and over again for taking that desire away from me. You guys got this. Just don't continue to drink. That bad feeling is the Holy Spirit trying to keep you in line. It's assurance that He's watching over you.
You’re all good Roman! The nice thing about the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints don’t judge! We all make mistakes. Rebound and keep trying.
@@berdawn82 Roman is a member and only has been positive… you can’t control people in the church…. Trust me there is people in every religion that will judge but the man upstairs don’t judge! Sorry you had a bad experience!
Both the Bible and Christian tradition taught that alcohol is a gift from God that makes life more joyous, but that over-indulgence leading to drunkenness is sinful.
@@davidblalock9945all of those have nothing to do with alcohol itself and everything to do with the spirit of someone who overindulges and can’t control themselves
"One drink is too many. A thousand is not enough." Used to hear that at the meetings. If an alcoholic knew moderation, they wouldn't be alcoholics. You're playing with fire if you think you are cured or better now.
Control and moderation are things you learn with age. We took a year off before and have been taking a little break right now. Everyone is on our own journey and learning what’s healthy and makes us happy is what’s important. Not outside pressure or perspective. I’m turning 40 in July and I too will be popping some champagne 🥂 Congrats on your growth, both of y’all ❤
Obviously, this is not a popular opinion, but I'll be honest, this is a disappointment to me. Not that you drank, but because you're playing it off as it's no big deal. I am also LDS, have been my whole life, and I was so excited when you made your sobriety video and also learned you had joined the church. All my children (ages 5-17) watch you and were also so excited to have an uplifting family to watch, that doesn't drink. A fellow LDS family, showing the world what a family can look like in a really ugly world. My oldest told me, "Wow, can you imagine the amazing impact that Roman can have on the youth in the church and world?! He has such an amazing platform for it too!" The look on his face after watching this video was full of so much sadness. When I met my husband (21 years ago), he drank a lot. At the time, I wasn't very active in the church and drank also. Even after having our first child, we still struggled with it. After some huge trials and our marriage almost falling apart because of alcohol, we got a wake up call and stopped. We thought that because we were drinking together, it was okay. We chose to take being an eternal family seriously. My family was/is more important than a stupid drink and friends who are not an uplifting influence. I feel 100% that drinking gives Satan full power of our lives and choices. It is a tool he uses to make us think we are happier. We've been there and learned the ugly, hard way. I still love and support your family. Church is for sinners, and thankfully, because of Jesus, there is repentance. It's not my place to judge, I'm just being honest with how I feel. I just know from experience that this is not the way. I was just telling my husband a week ago that the light you guys had is gone. Around the time you guys came out with your Pray More shirts, you both radiated an undeniable light and joy... It's honestly not there anymore. I miss the Roman who radiated pure happiness. Everyone's comments that say the old Roman is back are right. I'm just really sad for you guys and your children, because I truly know what both worlds feel like. Sending you and your family all my love. ------------- I'll probably get attacked in the comments, and that's okay. I am completely okay with having a different opinion and sharing my heart and feelings openly.
So glad you’re back !! You and your family has been such a inspiration to me for years and years their is nothing wrong with having a drink on a date night or with friends or after a stressful day love you guys keep up being you SMILE MORE😃
This is a good stuff Brittney and Roman. You two are an incredible team! I love how you love each other, complement each other and especially encourage each other. In my next life I want to be one of your kids. Kudos and all those explanative words! That first part about sobriety I likened it to a chapter. Chapters begin and end. I think sharing this may ease many peoples uneasiness about this subject. I think I have missed a video. I am guessing that you didn't sign a lease and you are keeping the equipment that you want. How precognitive of you to construct that nice big garage. Working smart, not hard seems to be a theme which has some good results.
Roman - I'm less than 2 hours from your laundromat and I own a small flooring / painting business. I would be more than glad to help renovate the laundromat! Let’s connect!!
Nice to see the honesty, that's vulnerable & refreshing. We actually just started watching again & mostly for the positivity & encouragement these daily videos have been. And the family-friendly content. Also not to be critical, but it's been inspirational to be able to watch someone/a couple, that encouraged sobriety; so many struggle from past issues with alcohol & just don't have any entertainment that doesn't have alcohol involved in daily life & most social settings. Still a great daily video! Smile More 😊
Roman this channel is a banger. I love the rawness. Ive been watching since i was 12, im now 24 years old and this is just awesome to see this side as an adult now. Makes me motivated af !!
As I’m 3 days away from 1 year sober (31 years old) and you being a huge part of that, I’m really disappointed. But I’m not complaining. I appreciate the honesty more than anything and that’s why I love you and your family. Not like you’re alcoholics. I just know what alcohol does to the brain and body and I was really enjoying clear minded Roman. Enjoy responsibly (I know you will). I love you guys ❤️
Why do you get the notion that he won’t be anything but clear minded on these videos? It’s not like he’s day drinking, and making these videos. If at the end of a long hard day, if he or Brit wants to kick back with a beer or glass of wine to let loose, who are you to throw your judgement at him? What makes you so righteous?
@@WaYsTiiD not throwing my judgement at him. I clearly stated that I wasn’t complaining and I support his decisions. I’m not righteous at all. There was nothing negative about what I said. Just stated I was disappointed and know what alcohol does to the body and mind. No matter how much alcohol it is, it greatly affects the body and mind. I always support him and the family. Please don’t make it seem like I’m throwing shade when I clearly stated I support everything he does.
@@dylanpilon777 you can’t sit here and say “almost 1 year sober, and you were a big part of that…and now that you’re drinking again, I’m really disappointed in you” and then say you weren’t judging and there was nothing negative about it. Being called a disappointment is a negative connotation. And yes, by you saying you’re disappointed is you calling him a disappointment. I’m not putting words in your mouth, you literally threw shade out and then tried to ease the blow by saying you aren’t complaining when in fact that’s exactly what your comment was doing.
Things happen, y’all are human and it’s good that you’re honest about it and knowing what you are doing. It’s got to be a relief for y’all to be where you’re at. I think it’s great to have you are doing vlogs.
It took a lot of courage to admit that. Good on you. Someone who is viewed by as many people as you, and the unfortunate level of "perfection" some hold you to is going to surely bring out the worst in a few. Those few are going to have some terrible things to say I'm sure, but you should definitely remember that those few people or anyone for that matter should never control how you feel about yourself and your decisions. The ones who understand you're only human and the life you live is up to you alone will understand and still support you
Thank you for all the new content you have been posting. It's been inspiring my husband and I. We are in real estate and want to expand our portfolio. This has expanded our minds and inspired us. I'm planning to buy a business within the next 6 months. Also, since you are talking about the power of your words ..... I noticed you keep saying you want to be real. You have never come across as fake. However, I can appreciate your efforts to be AUTHENTIC and that's admirable. We want to come say hello and support the new business ventures! 🛫
@@craineyy6703 I mean for the most part I agree with you, it can be alright depending on the person but yeah thats just what is falls under in terms of drug class, its a downer not something that is designed to make you depressed, I just hate when people say that lol.
I clicked subscribe on your channel today because of your authenticity. It’s missing in today’s world, and it is refreshing to find someone who is willing to be vulnerable and authentic. Keep being a light brother!
Thank you so much for sharing this with me and your audience I drink too, probably a little too excessively, and I feel comfort and knowing that even the best of us indulge some things that we may not be proud of your amazing Your one of a kind smile more keep moving forward
Imma start with this I’m so proud of yall for staying sober for so long. Next is it’s completely ok to have a few drinks every once in a while with friends or on a date. It’s completely ok. Now drinking every day or constantly is a different story. I appreciate ur honesty and I hope u know it’s ok and everyone I’m sure will understand. We r all human we all make choices but yall r inspiring in so many ways and be raw and honest like yall have been is truly amazing! Much love🙏🏻
We appreciate your honesty and its nothing to really be ashamed of. You've come far and you can have breaks and drink every now and again, but I think sobriety is just beautiful man. You get to enjoy life to the fullest once you unlock that type of chapter... Even though half the footage was lost I really enjoyed watching the process and you can really just learn the smallest details when you see videos like these. Its amazing, thanks for being you!
Huge inspiration bro thank you for being you im always thinkin bout startin a business and u showin the back side of things is amazing god bless ur family an everyone you love
Socialising with your friends having some drinks talking about life is a good thing. I also felt bad when I ate chocolate after a year but it was all just a mental block I had. You guys are very hardworking, course your going to go out and have drinks now and then, just like your parents did, and their parents before them. It's life. Nowadays people slam those who drink and smoke. The best era was the 90s when people did what they wanted without feeling guilty all the time.
Honestly bro i been around people drinking and u cant really say anything but yeah that shit led me to smoke weed and i been smoking weed for like 3 years now and honestly ur videos would bring me hope in this humanity cause quiet frankly the world is ridiculous right now so but thats life thanks for ur words bro
This is the best , I use to watch you when I was young in middle school now I’m 22 years old and a owner operator trucker , your videos inspired me always and now it just inspires me more for owning bussniess and real estate.
dont be ashamed or feel like you let anyone down, you guys are adults and are being responsible, thank you for sharing. also i have been sober for 25 years and can understand a drink every now and then would be nice. jusgt not for me
I know I'm certainly not disappointed in the two of you or think less of you, you are amazing loving and giving people and I have been watching for many years and just love your beautiful family!
Been watching since the early vlog days and this new channel and new vlogs are the most enjoyable because you're not trying to be someone you're not, it's raw and vulnerable. having a drink or two is fine, in moderation I like alcohol but i only drink once every 2 or 3 months, theres nothing wrong with it if you can control it. You can promote responsible drinking and not let anyone down, your sobriety is your own choice, you chose to be sober for 4 years thats an awesome achievement, now you chose to have a drink every now and then which is also just fine, just remember to keep it responsibile and in moderation and you'll be fine.
Thank you sooo much for being honest 🙏🏼 you’re a role model and being honest and true is the most important goal for someone who influences millions of people. Having a drink isn’t wrong, neither is taking a sober break. Soo rad to see you and Britt being marriage goals while going through all different stages of life’s. Keeps the vids, I’m 23 days in, SOOO stoked on the OG Vlogs 🙏🏼
We can appreciate the honesty ya'll got this a drink here and there isn't gonna hurt I love you guy's and I enjoy your content so much ty for coming back on yt and sharing your life
That’s too bad. Was rooting for you guys and your faith journey. But we all struggle and we’re all human. Hope you guys will make your way back. You’ve been and continue to be an inspiration regardless. Love the new channel and your family. The gospel is true and the atonement is real. Have a great, righteous, holy day!
Dude, thank you for the videos that you’ve been putting out for God knows how long now. Thank you for this new wave of inspirational videos, and being raw. However, you are quite aware that this is not the same world that was 10 years ago. People are evil, people are vicious, You have left people you have woke people, you have culture people, there is so much evil out there. I love you for being the man you are. I love your family. I love your mission. I love everything about you guys, but I would hate for you to be Too raw and too vulnerable and these people come after you and take that away from you and destroy this new wave of inspiration that could help many people out there. Please be sure to protect yourself and be ready for an attack because they will come for you, and I’d hate to see another good person taken down by the mentally ill
Respect for the honesty Roman. As long as the drinks are not effecting your health, theres no stress. After going 4 years off it, you have shown yourself just how easy it is to live a sober lifestyle. Drinking might eventually get old again for you two, you might even have another couple years without it down the line. Its great that you have appreciated your lives sober, giving you more confidence that you do not NEED it at the end of the day. I choose not to drink myself, a healthy body is a healthy mind...
Nothing wrong with having a few drinks! As long as it doesn’t take over your life. You have been a super busy man and especially as a father you’re very busy. Everyone has there struggles and your no different the all of us other then your a very positive person and make the best out of life witch is a great thing! I try my best everyday and unfortunately I’m not very happy and wish I could be where you are today! But you did that through years of work and grinding so I know maybe one day I’ll get there! But no matter what, at the end of the day no matter what’s going on in life, there’s always time for a few drinks😊
Where all human brother. Don't let it get you down. Keep doing what your doing and making your mom proud from above. Your an inspiration to me and my family and I'm sure your gods in your kids eyes. Keep it up love ya!
Thank you for the video and sharing your story having an occasional cocktail is fine as long as it's not a problem for anyone. Too bad about the footage but keep up the good work
Youre always here for us. Were here for the both of you too. Nothing wrong with enjoying a drink with your significant other / friends every once in a while. Dont feel down, no judgement here. Stay positive
Way to keep it real brother. Wife and myself just celebrated 25 years and this was first time not drinking. 6 months now and it's great. I love you baby! Can't wait for the next 25 years.
That’s very courageous to admit what you did. Like you said we’re human and we all make mistakes if we were perfect it would be a boring world. The only one that can judge us is the man up stairs!!! And as long as you’re drinking responsibly it is ok.
Roman, you had me in tears at first part of video. I am a 56 year old woman who has been watching for years. I can relate to how you have been feeling. I belong to the same church as you. I haven’t had a drink in 30 years but have felt the urge to have one to celebrate some of my milestones. I don’t think it is wrong. Thanks for knowing what your viewers need to hear. I 💜 U? You’re one ☝️ of a kind! SMILE MORE!!! 💜💜💜
Okay now. I have been following since likke time of dawn XD you guys is TOTALLY allowed a drink when you guys want to. Its NOT a bad thing it dont mean you are a alcoholic. It just means you had a good time and it felt right in the moment dont get so caught up by it :D
Its nice that you guys talked about this, talking about it can be freeing and you gotta give yourself some grace too as long as you don't let it , master you again and if you guys can have it safely in moderation then yeah enjoy it in a safe way that can be fun. It's a hard road when you struggle with the addiction to it in the past because there is risk to going back too it but you guys got it for sure and hey talking about it is good for accountability and helps at least me wanna be more responsible and think more about the decisions I make before making them next time.
Yes I agree sobriety is a good thing, but it’s also nice to enjoy yourself with friends or family every once in while, Most people don’t drink/ smoke In moderation. which will eventually build the addiction which no one wants. Keep up the good work Roman
Really appreciate your honesty!!! First, you and Britt are WONDERFUL parents and will do what is best for your family. Both of you are extremely grounded.
It's absolutely crazy that you are putting out this video right now at this moment in time. I am literally starting a period of sobriety this week. There is nothing wrong with sobriety, and there is nothing wrong with a social drink or two. The problem comes when you decide to turn off the filter and that social drink becomes a nightly thing just to relive stress or escape the world. Thats the direction that I have found myself going and that's why I made the decision to go sober for a few months. There is nothing wrong with being a responsible social drinker though, so as long as you stick to that and catch yourself when you start slippin', then all is well. I am catching myself slippin' so I'm going to go sober for 6 months. If in 6 months, I have realigned myself and I actually keep the promises that I make to myself with the actions that I actually take, then maybe I will allow myself the social drinking privilege. If not, then I will have to wait. Thats how it has to be. I need to reestablish self-discipline because it has begun to slip. Thats the only way to be responsible about it. Don't feel ashamed to socially drink! As long as you are maintaining self-discipline over it, then it's perfectly fine.
this channel has brought me back to watching roman like old times again.
fr I feel like a child again
Except we are now all adults. I'm glad he made a new channel
For real
same its so emotional
Exactly. I miss the prank channel tho
I started watching you at 12 years old {now 21}. I was a daily smoker of weed/vaping for 5 years straight. Didn't miss a day. I dont know if it was covid that did it or what it was. But about 2 -3 weeks ago you uploaded and was talking about working out and you said "its either day one or one day" and that for some reason flipped a switch in my head. I deadass stopped after that video. Threw everything out. I was never a drinker or anything along those lines, but I was a heavy smoker. You saying "day one or one day" truly changed my perspective. Anyways though. Day 17 now of being sober of everything and I can finally start seeing the light at the end of the tunnel!!! Thank you again
Same age, same problem ahah, smoked weed for so long and jus recently decided to lock in, day 3 rn 💪🏻
Congratulations to you both
congrats man
It gets easier every day💪 Take it one day at a time and never look back my friend!
Weed isn't for everybody good thing you realized that
You guys are great people. Love that you are sharing your life goals and challenges. We’re all “striving” to be our best self. Keep smiling:)

It’s not like you can’t drink! Just drink in moderation Roman and Brit! It isn’t anything to be ashamed of. Be proud of your accomplishments! 🎉 you both did wonderful for four years!!! And I feel like you both know not to get hammered. I am still proud of yall!!!

You can if you want to drink in moderation! Yes you have to have that will power and mindset to do so. My mom was an alcoholic. She didn’t have the mindset. I feel like Brit and Roman are strong enough to not go back to their old ways. They clearly said they don’t drink like they were they have a couple. That’s okay. They remained sober for four years! That’s awesome!!! 👏 like I said I am proud of them both and I believe they know their limits!
It's not bad that you drunk again, as long as you understand why you originally stopped and don't let drinking overtake and/or control your life then it's perfectly fine. I rarely ever drink, mostly just for special occasions (birthdays, weddings, or the occasional time I go out with mates) and it's perfectly fine imo. Being real about it and opening up about it is the first step to not letting it become a negative habit. Proud of you both. Love the honesty!!
He was never a addicted such b.s
@@kengreen4933 You dont know what people go through behind closed doors bro
Exactly im sober now but no one knew how bad i was drinking myself in to oblivion waking up shaking and going in to work feeling like i got hit by a dump truck for 4 years i got smashed to bits so please don't assume that you know peoples lives when you don't . And please god help those that are struggling with addiction or are homeless the government may forget but we don't god bless everyone! 😊@toldpromise
he was never addicted but the only times him and britt had arguments according to him was when they drunk. everytime they were “aggressive” with the kids was when they drunk. if they can enjoy their drinks, and continue to share the love that sobriety offered there is nothing wrong.
Get home from work, sit down and your video is uploaded a few hours prior and it's always my first click! Your helping me realize routine is a lot more important than i assumed. Thank you!
I’m loving this new content and I’m so proud of you guys being so real and vulnerable about everything. It’s always easier on everyone just being honest with yourself and everyone. Thank you so much for that. Keep killing it.
Roman! I used to work data recovery professionally, I can potentially recover that card for you if you would like! As long as nothing was filmed over it, the footage should still be there
Wow, first Caffeine and now alcohol. You might as well buy a bar now😂😂🤣
that will be the next video!🤣 5:18
Careful Roman, after caffeine and alcohol next comes crack like the lady that used to work for you and went crazy at the laundry 😂
But they will. And it would do amazing.
Lmao, but all jokes aside! Smile More Coffee Shop🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Guapeseriously great idea 😂❤
Law of attraction on display perfectly. You say your going to drink and your subconscious eventually makes that happen, same applies with other thoughts/actions. Fascinating to think about, such a powerful tool when used correctly. Love the realness of this channel so much keep the vids up.
There’s a difference between having an occasional drink when out in a social setting and drinking every day to get by or getting blasted every time you go out. There’s nothing wrong with drinking if you’re doing it in moderation, just like anything else in life. You’re gonna have to do a lot worse than that to let anyone down! Thank you for sharing with us and being vulnerable.
Listen man there’s absolutely no reason to feel guilty about having a drink every now and then you are a responsible adult and are allowed to enjoy yourself. I was personally a self acknowledged alcoholic and some people pointed it out so I tried to get better I tried the cold turkey method and it was and is hell but I’ve come to understand it’s ok to have a couple drinks every now and then keep your head up you are still and inspiration
Thank you for being so vulnerable and real! That’s all I want to see with anyone and this is awesome. I recently got sober and it’s hard! Feels good I have 6 months soon but I’m an alcoholic I can’t just have 1 drink so no drinking for me ever again
I've been there! Give yourself grace and just live your life. Lots of love and thanks for sharing! 🥰
Don't beat yourself up. I've been through it. 15 years clean from drugs and at one point drinking was an issue.... the older I get I realize I can have a drink now and then and know when to stop. I've grown as a person and we all do things on our terms. You guys are good ❤ thanks for sharing. Smile more 😊
So happy to have you back Roman. And I’m so happy that you’re being so real with us. The videos from when I was a kid were great for the time but now that I’m an adult I love the realness of your videos now
I feel like a drink or two is fine as long as you have control of yourself and your not doing anything to harm anyone it’s fine. You guys are amazing people and just keep being you that’s what we love!!! ❤
You guys are amazing for being willing to be so vulnerable. I love how real these videos are. 4 years of sobriety was an incredible accomplishment, but it's just as amazing to admit that you've changed from that and are having a drink every once in awhile.
It's nice to go out and have a drink here and there. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that.
I think sobriety helped you guys with some issues you were having but nothing wrong with a drink (or a couple drinks) as long as you guys don't get back to the place you were at before. I remember you mentioned arguing more when you were drinking.
Don't feel bad. You're human & you're adults over 21 lol and you've accomplished so much but also working your butts off with the new businesses and new channels 🙌
I've always looked up to you two, even before the sobriety and I still do especially now. You are, and always have been very inspirational and very positive role models to look up to.
Thank you for the daily uploads roman. Really making the days better
It’s ok to drink. Just drink in moderation. Just remember to keep your cool and not drink too much. It’s a nice thing to have A drink with some friends. I just turned 21 and I’ve been watching for years since you started SmileMore
We love you! Thanks for bringing Smiles and Happiness into all of our lives. Much love from Colorado
I loved watching your videos back then and love watching currently! What you do in your own time doesn’t bother me at all. Love y’all
Roman the amount of respect I have for you is 100%. Your honesty in the new vlogs is a breath of fresh air. Not only for us dads and husbands but the long time fans that saw you come up. Appreciate you and know your not alone in your daily struggles. Look to the man upstairs he's got your back.
Congrats on 200k subs.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Keep those laundromat videos coming
And that y'all did this at the beginning of the vid, y'all are truly an inspiration!!
Great video, Roman and Britt! Thanks for being vournable and real. I'm also stoked for the new business stuff you've got going on. If I weren't 1500 miles away, I'd come visit
I Grew up LDS, its hammered in you as a child that drinking is terrible and makes you a terrible person. I grew up, I became who I am today because of you Roman. Drinking is not bad, having a drink to unwind, going out with friends, limit yourself and drink responsibly. I grew up in Utah.. and mormon.. I started drinking with friends and becoming myself years ago. I had to hide who I really was around my family because of how I would be judged just because I drank. January of this year I packed up all I could the dogs my wife and 6 month old kid and we moved 2000 miles away to a place we have never been and have no family or friends to start a new life. One where we wont be judged for every thing we do. There is so much more I could add to this, but you have taught me how to be myself. You videos have helped get me through some of the hardest times of my life. Thank you Roman. I have been watching for over 10 years.
✊🏾✊🏾 props man i packed up my shit and left California last year and moved to Tennessee oh boy i love it way more here i walk outside and taste freedom
I feel this man
I always forget that they are members of a weird cult. They NEVER talk about it.
Don't beat yourself up. Just know a drink or two will do. I remember when the pastor of my church visited and he drank a beer. My wife had a hard time with it secondary to her upbringing. I told her that was not out of line for a priest. I stopped cause I could not practice what I preach, 2 became 4, 4 turned into 8, 8 would turn into 16.
Both my parents were alcoholics. My mother even went on 30 day dry outs is what we called them in the 60s and 70s. She would stay sober a year or two, then right back at it. Took her 4-thirty day stays over a 10 year period before she finally stopped for good. No judgment here. Appreciate the work you are doing. I've watched you since the beginning. Love you and your family. In closing, "Keep Smiling More!"
You kidding me. It's definitely out of line for a priest! A Luke warm one probably not ! But a true one , yes
Man these versions of the videos are amazing, there so real and honest. Don’t worry what other people think you guys are great!
Enjoyed this episode. Realness about sobriety and then showing us real work in moving the machines.
I have lived in a family full of alcoholism, and the fact that you and Brittney are so open about your journey of sobriety is special to me on a personal level. I have vowed, after seeing what my family has dealt with, to never have a drink or use drugs in my life. I'm 26 now, and I'm proud to say that I'm still on that road. You both are inspirations to me, and we're all saying it's okay. Just stay safe and healthy, and we will all still support you.
been 21 for 9 months, still have never touched alcohol in my life. Dont give in! I have alot of fun without it.
@@herobrine00700 you don’t need alcohol to have any bit of fun in your life. As long as you have great friends a great family/support system and most of all great energy you can succeed in life. Keep pushing bro. We got this. 💪🏻
Dude! I drank for almost 2 decades. It got so bad that I'd drink until I blacked out every time. I lost SO much during that time. God was the only one who could have helped me, and He did! This past January was 19 years sober. It may not sound like a big deal unless you knew me before, but I promise you, I was heading nowhere, and I was taking anyone who liked me enough down with me. I know exactly how Brit must have felt after y'all drank again. I haven't drank a drop since the Lord took that from me, but I've had dreams where I drank, abs it seemed so real that I would wake up feeling like all those years of sobriety went down the drain. I felt hopeless. But then I'd realize it was just a dream. And I'd thank
God over and over again for taking that desire away from me. You guys got this. Just don't continue to drink. That bad feeling is the Holy Spirit trying to keep you in line. It's assurance that He's watching over you.
Also can I just say, I love the approach to life you two take. You guys dive head first into life together and I think that’s amazing
Man this is as real as it gets please keeps sharing videos like this‼️life is not perfect
You’re all good Roman! The nice thing about the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints don’t judge! We all make mistakes. Rebound and keep trying.
Bruh, that’s one of the most judgey church ever. Been there and done that so don’t even bother trying to tell me I don’t know what I’m talking about:
@@berdawn82 Roman is a member and only has been positive… you can’t control people in the church…. Trust me there is people in every religion that will judge but the man upstairs don’t judge! Sorry you had a bad experience!
The second worst church cult with Scientology! Sky Daddy loves everyone 😂😂😂
Both the Bible and Christian tradition taught that alcohol is a gift from God that makes life more joyous, but that over-indulgence leading to drunkenness is sinful.
Proverbs 20 1, Hosea 4 11, Isaiah 28 7.
@@davidblalock9945all of those have nothing to do with alcohol itself and everything to do with the spirit of someone who overindulges and can’t control themselves
@@davidblalock9945Jesus turned water into wine
"One drink is too many. A thousand is not enough." Used to hear that at the meetings. If an alcoholic knew moderation, they wouldn't be alcoholics. You're playing with fire if you think you are cured or better now.
@@Sammycuhhhwine was different back then it was used in different ways
I was excited and looking forward today’s long video but im glad we got a little something. I love this new channel
I enjoy the daily vlogs again. Thank you for uploading each day. Much love to your family.
This was probably God reminding you to keep your eyes fixed on him and that none of this matters without him!
*Congratulations on 200,000 subscribers on the new channel*
Control and moderation are things you learn with age. We took a year off before and have been taking a little break right now. Everyone is on our own journey and learning what’s healthy and makes us happy is what’s important. Not outside pressure or perspective. I’m turning 40 in July and I too will be popping some champagne 🥂
Congrats on your growth, both of y’all ❤
I appreciate you even more for telling us the truth. That shows a lot about your character. You guys are awesome !
I appreciate the openers and honesty. It is refreshing but I wouldn't be truly honest if I didn't say I wasn't disappointed to some degree.
Obviously, this is not a popular opinion, but I'll be honest, this is a disappointment to me. Not that you drank, but because you're playing it off as it's no big deal.
I am also LDS, have been my whole life, and I was so excited when you made your sobriety video and also learned you had joined the church. All my children (ages 5-17) watch you and were also so excited to have an uplifting family to watch, that doesn't drink. A fellow LDS family, showing the world what a family can look like in a really ugly world. My oldest told me, "Wow, can you imagine the amazing impact that Roman can have on the youth in the church and world?! He has such an amazing platform for it too!" The look on his face after watching this video was full of so much sadness.
When I met my husband (21 years ago), he drank a lot. At the time, I wasn't very active in the church and drank also. Even after having our first child, we still struggled with it. After some huge trials and our marriage almost falling apart because of alcohol, we got a wake up call and stopped. We thought that because we were drinking together, it was okay. We chose to take being an eternal family seriously. My family was/is more important than a stupid drink and friends who are not an uplifting influence.
I feel 100% that drinking gives Satan full power of our lives and choices. It is a tool he uses to make us think we are happier. We've been there and learned the ugly, hard way.
I still love and support your family. Church is for sinners, and thankfully, because of Jesus, there is repentance. It's not my place to judge, I'm just being honest with how I feel. I just know from experience that this is not the way.
I was just telling my husband a week ago that the light you guys had is gone. Around the time you guys came out with your Pray More shirts, you both radiated an undeniable light and joy... It's honestly not there anymore. I miss the Roman who radiated pure happiness. Everyone's comments that say the old Roman is back are right. I'm just really sad for you guys and your children, because I truly know what both worlds feel like.
Sending you and your family all my love.
-------------
I'll probably get attacked in the comments, and that's okay. I am completely okay with having a different opinion and sharing my heart and feelings openly.
Maybe he’s not LDS anymore maybe he’ll make a video
So glad you’re back !! You and your family has been such a inspiration to me for years and years their is nothing wrong with having a drink on a date night or with friends or after a stressful day love you guys keep up being you SMILE MORE😃
This is a good stuff Brittney and Roman. You two are an incredible team! I love how you love each other, complement each other and especially encourage each other. In my next life I want to be one of your kids.
Kudos and all those explanative words! That first part about sobriety I likened it to a chapter. Chapters begin and end. I think sharing this may ease many peoples uneasiness about this subject.
I think I have missed a video. I am guessing that you didn't sign a lease and you are keeping the equipment that you want. How precognitive of you to construct that nice big garage. Working smart, not hard seems to be a theme which has some good results.
Things happen the way they do, and they turn out in a way they never would have otherwise.
Roman - I'm less than 2 hours from your laundromat and I own a small flooring / painting business. I would be more than glad to help renovate the laundromat! Let’s connect!!
Nice to see the honesty, that's vulnerable & refreshing. We actually just started watching again & mostly for the positivity & encouragement these daily videos have been. And the family-friendly content. Also not to be critical, but it's been inspirational to be able to watch someone/a couple, that encouraged sobriety; so many struggle from past issues with alcohol & just don't have any entertainment that doesn't have alcohol involved in daily life & most social settings. Still a great daily video! Smile More 😊
Roman this channel is a banger. I love the rawness. Ive been watching since i was 12, im now 24 years old and this is just awesome to see this side as an adult now. Makes me motivated af !!
Like if Roman should buy a bar ?
As I’m 3 days away from 1 year sober (31 years old) and you being a huge part of that, I’m really disappointed. But I’m not complaining. I appreciate the honesty more than anything and that’s why I love you and your family. Not like you’re alcoholics. I just know what alcohol does to the brain and body and I was really enjoying clear minded Roman. Enjoy responsibly (I know you will). I love you guys ❤️
Why do you get the notion that he won’t be anything but clear minded on these videos? It’s not like he’s day drinking, and making these videos. If at the end of a long hard day, if he or Brit wants to kick back with a beer or glass of wine to let loose, who are you to throw your judgement at him? What makes you so righteous?
@@WaYsTiiD not throwing my judgement at him. I clearly stated that I wasn’t complaining and I support his decisions. I’m not righteous at all. There was nothing negative about what I said. Just stated I was disappointed and know what alcohol does to the body and mind. No matter how much alcohol it is, it greatly affects the body and mind. I always support him and the family. Please don’t make it seem like I’m throwing shade when I clearly stated I support everything he does.
@@dylanpilon777 you can’t sit here and say “almost 1 year sober, and you were a big part of that…and now that you’re drinking again, I’m really disappointed in you” and then say you weren’t judging and there was nothing negative about it. Being called a disappointment is a negative connotation. And yes, by you saying you’re disappointed is you calling him a disappointment. I’m not putting words in your mouth, you literally threw shade out and then tried to ease the blow by saying you aren’t complaining when in fact that’s exactly what your comment was doing.
@@WaYsTiiD ok. Thank you for your opinion
Love this new content!!! Who knew that a laundromat could be this fun!!! Best work you’ve ever done!!!
Things happen, y’all are human and it’s good that you’re honest about it and knowing what you are doing. It’s got to be a relief for y’all to be where you’re at. I think it’s great to have you are doing vlogs.
Finally after 15 years I’m first
Sorry but you weren't
You were like 8th
First is the new 8th
Finally human roman is back 😂 thought you were Clark Kent for a while strict diet no caffeine no alcohol now u back one of us 🇺🇸 🦅
It took a lot of courage to admit that. Good on you. Someone who is viewed by as many people as you, and the unfortunate level of "perfection" some hold you to is going to surely bring out the worst in a few. Those few are going to have some terrible things to say I'm sure, but you should definitely remember that those few people or anyone for that matter should never control how you feel about yourself and your decisions. The ones who understand you're only human and the life you live is up to you alone will understand and still support you
Thank you for all the new content you have been posting. It's been inspiring my husband and I. We are in real estate and want to expand our portfolio. This has expanded our minds and inspired us. I'm planning to buy a business within the next 6 months. Also, since you are talking about the power of your words ..... I noticed you keep saying you want to be real. You have never come across as fake. However, I can appreciate your efforts to be AUTHENTIC and that's admirable. We want to come say hello and support the new business ventures! 🛫
Shoutout to the homie TRRO Bossy, TRRO-OT

Using alcohol to solve stress and anxiety is a horrible thing it leads to no end. Also remember nothing good comes from alcohol it’s a depressant.
Its a central nervous system depressant not something that makes you depressed
@@VRO911 nothing good comes from it
@@craineyy6703 I mean for the most part I agree with you, it can be alright depending on the person but yeah thats just what is falls under in terms of drug class, its a downer not something that is designed to make you depressed, I just hate when people say that lol.
I clicked subscribe on your channel today because of your authenticity. It’s missing in today’s world, and it is refreshing to find someone who is willing to be vulnerable and authentic. Keep being a light brother!
Thank you so much for sharing this with me and your audience I drink too, probably a little too excessively, and I feel comfort and knowing that even the best of us indulge some things that we may not be proud of your amazing Your one of a kind smile more keep moving forward
Like this if Roman is now part of a daily routine
Imma start with this I’m so proud of yall for staying sober for so long. Next is it’s completely ok to have a few drinks every once in a while with friends or on a date. It’s completely ok. Now drinking every day or constantly is a different story. I appreciate ur honesty and I hope u know it’s ok and everyone I’m sure will understand. We r all human we all make choices but yall r inspiring in so many ways and be raw and honest like yall have been is truly amazing! Much love🙏🏻
No worries man. Glad your comfortable enough to say it. You are great people. Keep it going
We appreciate your honesty and its nothing to really be ashamed of. You've come far and you can have breaks and drink every now and again, but I think sobriety is just beautiful man. You get to enjoy life to the fullest once you unlock that type of chapter... Even though half the footage was lost I really enjoyed watching the process and you can really just learn the smallest details when you see videos like these. Its amazing, thanks for being you!
Huge inspiration bro thank you for being you im always thinkin bout startin a business and u showin the back side of things is amazing god bless ur family an everyone you love
Socialising with your friends having some drinks talking about life is a good thing. I also felt bad when I ate chocolate after a year but it was all just a mental block I had. You guys are very hardworking, course your going to go out and have drinks now and then, just like your parents did, and their parents before them. It's life. Nowadays people slam those who drink and smoke. The best era was the 90s when people did what they wanted without feeling guilty all the time.
Honestly bro i been around people drinking and u cant really say anything but yeah that shit led me to smoke weed and i been smoking weed for like 3 years now and honestly ur videos would bring me hope in this humanity cause quiet frankly the world is ridiculous right now so but thats life thanks for ur words bro
This is the best , I use to watch you when I was young in middle school now I’m 22 years old and a owner operator trucker , your videos inspired me always and now it just inspires me more for owning bussniess and real estate.
dont be ashamed or feel like you let anyone down, you guys are adults and are being responsible, thank you for sharing. also i have been sober for 25 years and can understand a drink every now and then would be nice. jusgt not for me
I know I'm certainly not disappointed in the two of you or think less of you, you are amazing loving and giving people and I have been watching for many years and just love your beautiful family!
Been watching since the early vlog days and this new channel and new vlogs are the most enjoyable because you're not trying to be someone you're not, it's raw and vulnerable.
having a drink or two is fine, in moderation
I like alcohol but i only drink once every 2 or 3 months, theres nothing wrong with it if you can control it.
You can promote responsible drinking and not let anyone down, your sobriety is your own choice, you chose to be sober for 4 years thats an awesome achievement, now you chose to have a drink every now and then which is also just fine, just remember to keep it responsibile and in moderation and you'll be fine.
Thank you sooo much for being honest 🙏🏼 you’re a role model and being honest and true is the most important goal for someone who influences millions of people. Having a drink isn’t wrong, neither is taking a sober break. Soo rad to see you and Britt being marriage goals while going through all different stages of life’s. Keeps the vids, I’m 23 days in, SOOO stoked on the OG
Vlogs 🙏🏼
We can appreciate the honesty ya'll got this a drink here and there isn't gonna hurt I love you guy's and I enjoy your content so much ty for coming back on yt and sharing your life
That’s too bad. Was rooting for you guys and your faith journey. But we all struggle and we’re all human. Hope you guys will make your way back. You’ve been and continue to be an inspiration regardless. Love the new channel and your family. The gospel is true and the atonement is real. Have a great, righteous, holy day!
I love the new channel so much been watching since I was 10 I’m almost 20 now have loved watching you and the family growing up❤
Love the honesty❤ hope you guys feel better about the drinking situation 😊
Dude, thank you for the videos that you’ve been putting out for God knows how long now. Thank you for this new wave of inspirational videos, and being raw. However, you are quite aware that this is not the same world that was 10 years ago. People are evil, people are vicious, You have left people you have woke people, you have culture people, there is so much evil out there. I love you for being the man you are. I love your family. I love your mission. I love everything about you guys, but I would hate for you to be Too raw and too vulnerable and these people come after you and take that away from you and destroy this new wave of inspiration that could help many people out there. Please be sure to protect yourself and be ready for an attack because they will come for you, and I’d hate to see another good person taken down by the mentally ill
Respect for the honesty Roman. As long as the drinks are not effecting your health, theres no stress. After going 4 years off it, you have shown yourself just how easy it is to live a sober lifestyle. Drinking might eventually get old again for you two, you might even have another couple years without it down the line. Its great that you have appreciated your lives sober, giving you more confidence that you do not NEED it at the end of the day. I choose not to drink myself, a healthy body is a healthy mind...
Nothing wrong with having a few drinks! As long as it doesn’t take over your life. You have been a super busy man and especially as a father you’re very busy. Everyone has there struggles and your no different the all of us other then your a very positive person and make the best out of life witch is a great thing! I try my best everyday and unfortunately I’m not very happy and wish I could be where you are today! But you did that through years of work and grinding so I know maybe one day I’ll get there! But no matter what, at the end of the day no matter what’s going on in life, there’s always time for a few drinks😊
You guys went on the crazy health kick figuring yourselves out and it seems like you are now figuring out the perfect middle ground, good job guys!
I love the new businesses you been getting tons of new adventures to come!
Where all human brother. Don't let it get you down. Keep doing what your doing and making your mom proud from above. Your an inspiration to me and my family and I'm sure your gods in your kids eyes. Keep it up love ya!
You’re not letting anyone down keep being you! Loving the daily vlogs!
Thank you for the video and sharing your story having an occasional cocktail is fine as long as it's not a problem for anyone. Too bad about the footage but keep up the good work
Youre always here for us. Were here for the both of you too. Nothing wrong with enjoying a drink with your significant other / friends every once in a while. Dont feel down, no judgement here. Stay positive
Way to keep it real brother. Wife and myself just celebrated 25 years and this was first time not drinking. 6 months now and it's great. I love you baby! Can't wait for the next 25 years.
That’s very courageous to admit what you did. Like you said we’re human and we all make mistakes if we were perfect it would be a boring world. The only one that can judge us is the man up stairs!!! And as long as you’re drinking responsibly it is ok.
Roman, you had me in tears at first part of video. I am a 56 year old woman who has been watching for years. I can relate to how you have been feeling. I belong to the same church as you. I haven’t had a drink in 30 years but have felt the urge to have one to celebrate some of my milestones. I don’t think it is wrong. Thanks for knowing what your viewers need to hear. I 💜 U? You’re one ☝️ of a kind! SMILE MORE!!! 💜💜💜
Okay now. I have been following since likke time of dawn XD you guys is TOTALLY allowed a drink when you guys want to. Its NOT a bad thing it dont mean you are a alcoholic. It just means you had a good time and it felt right in the moment dont get so caught up by it :D
You hit 200k Roman! Keep up the outstanding work & content!
Love the sit downs!! Im liking the blue R hat haha, Love that you are sharing your life and keeping it real.
Its nice that you guys talked about this, talking about it can be freeing and you gotta give yourself some grace too as long as you don't let it , master you again and if you guys can have it safely in moderation then yeah enjoy it in a safe way that can be fun. It's a hard road when you struggle with the addiction to it in the past because there is risk to going back too it but you guys got it for sure and hey talking about it is good for accountability and helps at least me wanna be more responsible and think more about the decisions I make before making them next time.
Yes I agree sobriety is a good thing, but it’s also nice to enjoy yourself with friends or family every once in while, Most people don’t drink/ smoke In moderation. which will eventually build the addiction which no one wants. Keep up the good work Roman
Really appreciate your honesty!!! First, you and Britt are WONDERFUL parents and will do what is best for your family. Both of you are extremely grounded.
Congrats on 200k!!!!!! 🎉 Love the content brother
It's absolutely crazy that you are putting out this video right now at this moment in time. I am literally starting a period of sobriety this week. There is nothing wrong with sobriety, and there is nothing wrong with a social drink or two. The problem comes when you decide to turn off the filter and that social drink becomes a nightly thing just to relive stress or escape the world. Thats the direction that I have found myself going and that's why I made the decision to go sober for a few months.
There is nothing wrong with being a responsible social drinker though, so as long as you stick to that and catch yourself when you start slippin', then all is well. I am catching myself slippin' so I'm going to go sober for 6 months. If in 6 months, I have realigned myself and I actually keep the promises that I make to myself with the actions that I actually take, then maybe I will allow myself the social drinking privilege. If not, then I will have to wait. Thats how it has to be. I need to reestablish self-discipline because it has begun to slip. Thats the only way to be responsible about it.
Don't feel ashamed to socially drink! As long as you are maintaining self-discipline over it, then it's perfectly fine.
