I hid my addiction behind success.
Now I coach people who need a hushed place to get help.
CONFIDENTIAL RECOVERY COACHING FOR HIGH PERFORMERS WHO STRUGGLE IN SILENCE
I’m Mark Lawson
I spent years working at the highest levels of the ad world, successful on paper, but falling apart in private. I battled addiction, denial, and self-sabotage while pretending everything was fine. When I finally asked for help, I realized recovery wasn’t about giving up who I was, it was about remembering who I was before the chaos.
Today, I work with high-performing professionals who are living that same double life. They’ve got careers, families, and reputations, but they’re quietly crumbling.
My work helps them get honest, take responsibility,
and build emotional sobriety through
my Help Me method, three actions that saved my life:
1. Help Me,
2. It’s Not You, It’s Me
3. Help Them.
This work reframes rock bottom as the moment you stop hiding and get honest.

tHE THREE PHASES OF HUSHED HEALING
Help me
This is the moment you stop hiding,
stop pretending and you let someone in.
It’s the first real move forward.
It’s not you, it’s me
This is where we see how your actions shaped your current situation and where you start to take responsibility.
Help them
Now the focus shifts outward, getting you
out of your head and into helping others.
It’s the action that will bring long-term relief.
