There are many ways addiction can show up in our lives and this can keep us trapped in an existence that isn't aligned with our truest self. But we can find deep transformation in the acknowledgment of our addictive patterns. On today's episode, I talk to coach and author Dean Powell about his powerful journey with addiction, finding a path to healing, and his passion to help others to not only break their addictions, but live and thrive beyond them.

We get deep into:

• Dean's religious upbringing and learning to trust his intuition
• His journey with addiction and how it played into his relationship dynamics
• Seeking help and feeling shame in recovery
• Dean's thoughts on the spectrum of addiction
• One IMPORTANT piece we need to look at to be able to transform
• How he talks to his kids about drugs and the concept of parenting from your own pain
• The first step in a healing journey (and how useful this can be for anyone!)
• How his drug use affected his sex life
• Developing an attention level and felt sense of what is being said and unsaid (and how this can help in your relationships)
• And so much more!
