Episode Title: Little Dave: The Voice That Blocks Sobriety

In this insightful episode, Lisa M is joined by today's speaker, Dave from Surrey, England, who shares a profound perspective on one of the biggest barriers to sobriety: "Little Dave." Well for Dave it's Little Dave, for Lisa it's Little Lisa...you get the picture. This inner voice—the relentless narrator in your head—constantly comments on the world, other people, and yourself.

Dave dives into how this voice swings between extremes, inflating your ego one moment ("Don't they know who you are?") and tearing you down the next ("You're a worthless waste of space"). Listen as Dave explores how recognizing and managing this inner critic is essential to staying grounded and committed to recovery.
