We are so excited for today’s episode! We are joined by our very close friend, Rachelle Tratt, who shares her love story of herself and her fiance, Tom. Rachelle shares the twists, turns, and pleasant surprises in her love journey, the highs and the lows, the unexpected growth points, and everything that has led her to be in the right place and the right time to fall in love with “her person.”

Love is one of the most powerful emotions that we experience as human beings. It is a driving force behind everything we do. By connecting to this emotion, we are able to find the motivation to continue when faced with even the hardest obstacles in life. In this episode, Adi takes us through a simple meditation designed to help you find strength by deepening your connection to love.

In this episode, we revisit a topic that frequently comes up in discussions of recovery—perfectionism. Our world is obsessed with the notion that you will only lead a happy life if you succeed in everything. Unfortunately, when we internalize this mindset, we set ourselves up for failure. In the addiction world, this means that every relapse is treated as failure, and that every time you slip up, you are back to square one. Breaking from perfectionism can aid you in your recovery journey.

Joining us today is our inspiring friend Sahara Rose Ketabi. Sahara is a best-selling author, thought leader, podcast host, inspirational speaker, founder of Rose Gold Goddesses, Ayurveda expert, DJ, and dance enthusiast. Sahara works to take ancient wisdom and make it modern and relatable, and she does it in a way that is going to leave you feeling inspired!

The monumental challenges that we, as a society, are facing can feel understandably overwhelming. However, the massive societal changes we are experiencing also provide a unique opportunity for self-reflection and individual growth. In this episode, we are joined by Sahara Rose, bestselling author, and host of the Highest Self podcast, who shares with us her simple tip for finding your purpose in an everchanging world.

Missed out on Dry January? It’s not too late! In this episode, we discuss abstinence sampling. Abstinence sampling lets you try out not using without the pressure of making a longterm commitment to abstinence. Abstinence sampling provides you the opportunity to peek behind the curtain, exploring the reasons that you use without necessarily going all in on sobriety. At IGNTD, we’re all about incremental progress and honest exploration. Abstinence sampling is an amazing tool to do just that.
