In this episode, we have on Ben Harrison. We discuss in detail why it is important. We feel to have a therapist, even though you have worked a 12 step program or our currently working a 12 step program. Often times people assume that just because they are in recovery, they don't need a therapist, which we challenge that thought. We feel that it is vital for people to continue seeing a therapist no matter what, because what do you have to lose?

In this episode, Ben and I discuss what it means to be strong and our sobriety across all four dimensions, being physically, mentally emotionally and spiritually. Often times we see people get so caught up in the physical presentation that they put off to others they forget about the other three areas. It doesn't necessarily matter how much weight you can lift or how fast you can run, but how are you handle situations that are stressful and how you handle yourself in tough situations. Are you vulnerable? Are you emotionally available to others? Do you handle yourself with respect and do you have a good moral compass? These are all questions that we cover in this episode.
