You already know something is broken.
This is the toolkit to fix it.
Not a programme. Not a 12-step. Not a wellness subscription. Operator-grade frameworks built from 45 years of lived experience, army service, and the kind of transformation that doesn’t come from borrowed theory.
- You’re doing all the right things and still running the same loops
- You’ve tried willpower. It works until it doesn’t.
- Every system you’ve tried was built for someone else’s problem
- You know the answer isn’t another drug, another programme, or another person telling you to be more positive

Beyond 12 Steps
AA has a 5 to 8 percent long-term success rate. That number has barely moved in seventy years. Beyond 12 Steps explains the biology of why drinking happens, what the recovery industry gets wrong, and what actually works instead. Written by a bloke who spent 45 years in it and came out the other side without a label, a sponsor, or a programme.

What people say
Verified ★★★★★ reviews“I stumbled across Ian on Facebook after signing up for Dry January with no intention of continuing. If I just give myself one month off after 40 years of nightly drinking, I’ll be ok won’t I? Clearly not. I recognised myself in so much of what he said. I purchased Emotional Mastery and have never looked back. This book has inspired me to stop my ‘nightly reward’ bottle of wine — currently on over 2 months poison free. Emotionally I feel much more in control. I meditate, I read, I create and I smile much more. I wasn’t sure I would particularly like the authentic me without the alcohol to lean on but I am loving the clarity and honesty Ian’s book has brought into my life.”Caron Caldwell · Verified Purchase · Emotional Mastery EOM
“Consistent with Ian’s posts — incredibly detailed, scientifically accurate and well written. The idea of needing a ‘state change’ in the face of a craving was like a lightbulb moment for me. Tried it with success.”Liz · Verified Purchase · Under Load ★★★★★
“I haven’t finished it yet but I can tell you it is life changing. Don’t buy it if you just want to feel better — it is challenging and painful and is the hardest thing I have ever read. I feel hopeful for the first time in a long time.”Geraldine Chapman · Verified Purchase · Under Load ★★★★★
“The content Ian puts out on his Facebook page — for free — has changed my life. I am deeply grateful.”Anneke · Verified Review ★★★★★
“Emotional Mastery isn’t self-help. It’s deprogramming. Callaghan slices through the BS with surgical precision. Once you see what he shows you, you can’t unsee it. The spell breaks.”Mike Meyer · Verified Purchase · Emotional Mastery ★★★★★
“If you want things sugar coated this book is not for you. If you’re prepared to understand why you keep doing the same shit on a different day, then invest in the time to read this.”Rose · Verified Purchase · Under Load ★★★★
“Best purchase ever. I haven’t even finished it and wished I’d bought it sooner. It makes so much sense in a time of confusion and overwhelm.”Kate Robinson · Verified Purchase · Under Load ★★★★★
