Chad Johnson is the host of Not All There — a podcast where raw honesty and dark humor collide, because if you can't laugh at the wreckage you're missing half the story. He's been sober for over a decade and still considers it the best plot twist of his life. Based on Chicago's North Shore, he's a certified recovery coach, peer group facilitator, and the founder of Lymbic — built entirely around the one question nobody in recovery wants to answer out loud: I'm sober, now what? He spent nearly a decade in commercial real estate before sobriety handed him a better career and significantly better material. His performance background at Piven Theatre, This Much Is True, and Tenx9 taught him that the best stories live in the uncomfortable spaces — which makes recovery basically a gold mine. He produces We Are Not a Glum Lot, a live comedy series proving that people in recovery are some of the funniest humans on the planet. His peer group work and coaching is rooted in the belief that long-term sobriety isn't just about staying sober — it's about building a life so good you'd never trade it back. Chad is committed to making recovery culture a global conversation. He doesn't preach, doesn't polish, and will absolutely make you laugh before he makes you think.
