53: Grit vs. Grace--Why Willpower Alone Can’t Keep You Sober


Listen Later

“You can’t be a little bit pregnant”—Steven T. Ginsburg uses this phrase to capture the all-or-nothing reality of addiction. In this episode, he explores why some are more vulnerable than others, how trauma and genetics fuel dependency, and why willpower alone isn’t enough.

Through real stories and personal experience, Ginsburg shows that lasting recovery requires spiritual growth, daily practice, and the support of community. Honest and compassionate, this conversation offers both hope and practical direction for anyone facing addiction or supporting a loved one.
