Fred McCausland is "Freddy Mac" to his listeners weekday mornings on the radio in Fredericton, New Brunswick.
Quitting drinking 21 years ago was just the start. The beginning of a what he calls a "magical" mental health journey that continues to this day.
During this time, Fred has done a short series of mental health blogs for the NB Dept Of Wellness, along with occasional public talks to various groups from teens to education professionals. All the while, focusing on the "magic" that has worked for him while coping with addiction and sobriety.
