What if addiction isn’t just a “willpower problem,” but a nervous system, trauma, and self-worth problem you can actually work with?

 In this episode, host Lisa Urbanski talks with Aeon Archer about his 14-year recovery journey, 205 days of current sobriety, and how healing addiction means caring for your whole self—mind, body, and spirit.

You’ll learn how to:
🧠 Tell the difference between “being in recovery” and just counting sober days
💔 See how trauma, shame, and men’s rules (“be strong, don’t feel”) feed addiction
🌱 Use holistic tools—spiritual practices, earth medicine, nervous system care—without bypassing the hard work
❤️ Build self-compassion so relapse moments don’t turn into full self-destruction
🧭 Take simple first steps if you feel overwhelmed, stuck, or scared to ask for help

If you’re tired of starting over, this conversation will show you how to start healing from the inside out—one honest step at a time.
