Sometimes the road to recovery can lead to intense feelings of grief and loss. This week, Luke challenges our understanding of grief by exploring how it shows up in unexpected ways during recovery and transformation. 

Through personal stories and powerful insights, Luke shows us why letting go of old patterns - even the destructive ones - can feel like losing a familiar friend, but is so necessary when striving to change and heal.
