OL18: Just One Drink
29m · PublishedIn 2020 there's no shortage of stress. What would happen if I had just one drink?
In today's episode we play the tape to the end. *spoiler alert* My world would fall apart. Hands down, my addiction would get the best of me. It starts with just one drink, but rapidly escalates out of control.
I share what I do to stay one step a head of my addiction.
Working on my recovery isn't something that someday I'm going to do, it's something that everyday I'm doing.

OL17 : Recovery Buzzwords
36m · PublishedAnchoring mistakes & lessons to buzzwords can be both hilarious and fun.
Like one time, I accidently bought double the cooking ingredients and found myself pivoting to a new for meal prep strategy at 11 PM.
We've talked about identifying emotions. The ones that impact my mood the most are Hungry. Angry. Lonely. Tired. To avoid becoming HANGRY, I spend 90% of my day looking after these. Friends don't let friends make decisions when they're hangry!

OL16: Reframing our Emotions
34m · PublishedNo good has ever come from my knee jerk reactions. We've talked about the HALT acronym before, but in today's episode we dig into what part of myself is feeling a certain way. Looking past the raw feeling, and identifying emotions can help understand the underlying issue.
I share perspectives of some of my favorite authors.
We talk about anchoring emotions to experiences. Is it possible to co-create the world as we experience it. Is there another way for me to perceive what's happening right now?

OL15: Supportive Communities
34m · PublishedFor the longest time, Ego & Pride held me back from embracing recovery. I was afraid of what my friends & family would think of me if I reached out for help.
Join us as we talk about how a support group (for me), served as my higher power in early recovery. There's a certain level of accountability and support that can come from support meetings. Forming healthy habits is difficult for anything new, especially being open and honest (with myself and others).
