The Drew and Shawn characters in the workbooks are based on the real life successes and failures of Shawn Jordan
and Drew Hartt, two long-time friends and associates.
Drew Hartt is a very talented professional golfer who has been sidelined for years by
gambling difficulties. He currently is working towards removing gambling problems from his life and is
focused on revitalizing his golf career.
Drew is the Professional Sports Marketing Representative for the STOP Gambling brand.
We hope to see Drew back in a PGA Tour event competing with a golf bag displaying the STOP Gambling logo!
That would be a great accomplishment as well as an inspiration for all of us who are on the road to recovery
and rediscovering our own excellence.

From Us to You
We hope the information we created will help you on your road to recovery and restructuring the way you
think about gambling. It should allow you to rediscover great things about yourself and move on to
a healthier way of thinking.
In the end, it's up to you to make the changes that will benefit you and all those who are connected to you.
This 21-Step System is a great way to start!
We sign copies of our system at bookstores, media outings, youth education, community involvement,
and other events.
Corporate golf tournaments (or par three hole tournament hosts).
Drew shows all us how to hit the tee shot we wish we could…17 career holes-in-one under his
belt. Plus, we can create a donation agreement between STOP Gambling Inc. and your company to
help those in need of recovery assistance.
Enhancing your company culture with STOP Gambling education.
Shawn is always eager to help companies educate their employees on the value of preventing
problem gambling and encouraging recovery.
Educating counsellors and addiction specialists on the unique challenges of successfully
recovering from gambling addiction.
Do you want your counselling team to better understand the real-life experiences, thoughts, and
processes that went into each of our 21 steps and their order? We offer
Shawn and Drew's 21-Step System Training for counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists,
therapists, and social workers who provide support to recovering gambling addicts.
Our system works for a reason. We can help you become an expert in gambling addiction recovery and
a more successful part of the support network.
