After taking a few months off - we're back! And we have the honor of recording with a true beacon of light. During Part 1, we get curious about the role of sex/love in our lives, how to wear the many hats of ambition, and how our past lives have been repurposed to help recreate the new. This episode offers a great reminder that the wellness lifestyle turns into quite the adventure, if we just let our light shine. Stay tuned for Part 2 to hear Sandy's WarStory!

We're starting off 2022 with a group Q and A episode! 10 of us got together to eat pizza and talk about our experience with recovery. "What we've learned, what worked, what didn't and why." This episode pushes back against rigid beliefs systems, while offering solution to those that don't know where to start. If you're debating recovery, new to recovery or need a reminder - this is an open discussion of ideas to chew on. From sober curious, to normies and 12 steppers - we can all agree upon one thing... Recovery looks different on everybody.

This is a story of redemption. In my early days of recovery, today's guest left an impression on me from across the room. Often times, those of us that live with addiction struggle to find our way back. Fortunately, this episode is an incredible story of how 'one of us' never gave up. On this episode we discuss how recovery looks different for everyone, the impact of shame, codependency and being addicted to the thrill.

Trigger warning. This episode discusses multiple forms of trauma and/or traumatic events. Here we go! Part 2 is finally here! This story is a powerful example of how trauma, focusing on the differences and hiding behind 'the presentation' is a recipe for hopelessness. Fortunately, that same hopelessness can lead to clarity and radical transformation. This story offers undeniable evidence that the antidote to the thousand forms of self-delusion is recovery.

Dude - we all laughed HARRD recording this one. If you like cerebral takes on life, spirituality and humor - this episode is for you. During Part 1, we discuss the ebb and flow of our current lives, how our ‘iSM’ shows up today and the benefits of breeding spirituality into 'hot topics’ (politics, government, vaccines, etc.).

A friend from a local meeting stops by to share her 'WarStory.' On this episode we discuss how fear and pain became our greatest motivators. All the while, learning how to grow through it without having a 'cop out' or addiction to blame. An incredibly inspiring story about growing up in the foster system, experiencing terminal uniqueness and coming to terms with the fact that life still happens. A beautiful example of how the gift of the desperation ignites a new craving to better self.

Lets be honest... the term 'sobriety' can come across as a little stale. Especially to those that are new to this way of life. Our guest, who is a bonafide 'sober meme' savant, stops by to help reframe and revitalize the concept. We discuss 'ins and outs' of the sober curious movement and 'the why' behind alternative realms of recovery. Unsurprisingly, the common thread is that WE ALL live with a human condition. And that condition requires going inward. Reach out to Kristen today @creativesobriety and listen to her podcast!

The owner of Glen Park Recovery homes stops by to talk about the power of purpose. Today's guest offers a graceful reminder of how INCREDIBLE obstacles can be overcome with a little willingness and service. His life experience is proof that life isn't unbearable by circumstance - rather a lack of meaning and purpose.
