Elias Snyder is having a day. Maybe it's going to be a good day, maybe a not-so good day, but he's having a day! It is, of course, his day to live, and to love, and to bare himself honestly with the world. Eli shares his very new, and his very critical lessons on recovery, the non-negotiable dynamic of change, and finding the truth abottom of our dysfunction. 

Essential for Eli is being in nature and writing, awhile loving and accepting himself before the world can accept him as his true and honest self. It's about exercising the good kind of control, and creating the life-balance that keep us alive. A deep and sharing conversation about doing the work, and a unique insight into the dynamic of romance, how using the word 'love' can be manipulative. 

How do earn back the trust of all those who are trying to believe in us, how do we exit a co-dependent relationship, how do we give all that we need to in order to get something real back from the world. How do we get to the point of being ready to finally participate in true change. 

And so now, the opposite of addiction is connection...connecting with ourselves, with humanity, and with the opportunity to survive free of those behaviors determined to kill us. Lastly, it's the uncertainty, the life-saving power of family, and an exploration into the void.  

Look for my books on Amazon.
