In this episode, we’re joined by Severn Lang - Creative Recovery Advocate, playwright, and filmmaker - whose work brings a powerful and compassionate lens to addiction, healing, and the stories we tell ourselves.

Severn’s journey moves beyond substance addiction and into something many of us experience without realising it: emotional addiction - the attachment to familiar cycles of stress, chaos, self-sabotage, and relationships that repeat the same pain.

He shares how creativity became both a lifeline and a mirror, helping him understand the emotional patterns that shaped his identity and, ultimately, how to break free from them.

We explore:

• What emotional addiction looks like in everyday life
• Why we unconsciously repeat the same toxic patterns
• How storytelling and creative expression can help us heal
• The courage required to let go and choose a new narrative

This conversation is an invitation to see recovery not as the end of a struggle - but as the beginning of a more authentic and connected life.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or trapped by cycles you can’t explain… this episode will speak to you.
