Addiction Recovery

76: Why Smart, Successful People Still Struggle With Addiction


Listen Later

Success can be a quiet trigger. When life improves, it’s easy to think the risk is gone—but that’s often when relapse risk increases. We explain why and share simple, repeatable practices that protect clarity and keep ego in check.

Addiction doesn’t fit one profile; it affects high achievers as much as anyone. External wins can’t fill internal emptiness. Lasting stability comes from spiritual grounding, strong community, and disciplined recovery habits.

If you look fine on the outside but feel complacency creeping in, this conversation offers practical tools and perspective. Keep the main thing the main thing. We’re recovering—not recovered.
