The Quit Vaping Podcast

So many of us focus on the things that we are giving up in order to quit vaping. This leaves us deprived and bitter about quitting (not good!). In order to quit for good, you are going to have to shift your focus to everything that you are getting from a life free of addiction. And, I promise you'll be gaining SO MUCH MORE than you're giving up.

I don't do this podcast to get people away from nicotine... I do it to bring people closer to who they know they are capable of becoming.

The work I do with helping people quit vaping is so meaninguful and important to me. However, it's not really about quitting vaping. I use vaping as a window into learning the skillset of managing your thoughts and emotions. Quitting vaping is an excellent starting point for this material. But, as you learn how to think and beleif things deliberately in life, and feel your emotions, you realize that your life could be so much bigger than you once may have imagined.

That is when these toold get really fun. Although this is the quit vaping podcast, to me, it's really the "Welcome to The Biggest Version of Your Life Podcast!" and I want everyone who listens to expand what the believe is possible for them. Enjoy today's episode.

Do you find that you have trouble staying away from nicotine when alcohol gets involved? This episode should help. The reason why it is so much more difficult to not vape when you drink is because alcohol inhibits your power to regulate your emotions and cravings. It makes total sense that drinking is a vulerable place for quitters to relapse.

If you ever mess up and vape when you said you weren't going to, the best thing you can do is to look at the situation and what occured from a place of genuine curiousity, not judgement.

One of the most important thing that comes from learning the emotional work that I teach is that it is incredibly empowering. When you can sit down with any emotion without resisting it, numbing it, or reacting to it (acting it out), you become the kind of person who takes full control over their life experince.

Addiction, by its very nature is an emotional problem. The best version of yourself is the one who is willing to feel any emotion. Addicion and your best self cannot co-exist.

In today's episode, you will learn what NOT to do. My dad has been a smoker for over 40 years and a quitter for about 39 of them. He has quit smoking a lot over the last 20 years and he always does it by using the willpower method.

Quitting smoking/vaping with the willpower method means that you wre fighting with beliefs in your head that create desire to use nicotine, while also pushing up against the craving and emotions that need to be processed in order for them to actually go away. It is an exhausting method that is very ineffctive and almost always temporary.

Today's episode will get you to the truth about your relationship with nicotine. Sometimes we say we want something but we aren't actually willing enough to put ourselves in the discomfort required for growth. It's good to pause and take an honest and compassionate look about what we say we want vs. what we are actually willing to do to get there.

I will also tell you about how my dad quit after 40 years of a (2 pack a day) cigarette addiction and how he did it in a temporary way that will cause him a lot of unnecessary suffering.

In today's episode, you will learn the most important concept I've learned throughout my studies in mental health. It has saved me from SO much suffering and will do the same for you.

Life is supposed to be 50/50. That means that half the time, life feels great and the other half the time, it feels uncomfortable. When you truly understand this concept, you stop trying to "fix" negative emotion. Iroincally, when you no longer resist negative emotions in your life, your life becomes a lot more positive. That is the paradox of negative emotion.

In today's episode, you learn about the nicotine desire trap that keeps you from living the life you want to live. Understand this episode. It will change your whole life.

Nicotine messes up our dopamine (happiness) responses in our brains. That means it becomes very difficult to know what we really want in our lives and vaping allows us to tolerate lives we're not happy with because of the stead stream of artifically high dopamine rushes it causes.

When I was vaping, I was at constant war with myself. I knew that it was getting in the way of the life I wanted but I just couldn't bring myself to quit for good.

In today's episode, you will hear about one of my most pathetic moments with my addiction. I hope it helps you see how vaping is blocking you from becoming your ideal self. There were many times over my 9 year battle with nicotine addiciton where my ack of control made me feel powerless, weak, and shameful.

Looking back, I actually understand why it was so hard for me to quit permanently. I had tried on so many occassions to beat myself into a life free of nicotine. At the time, I never realized that learning to love myself as a vaper was truly the first step to true nicotine liberattion.

It only takes one big thought shift to make you a permanent non-vaper. (this is called a breakthrough in the self-help/life coaching world).

Today, I will tell you the story of when I had my (one of many) big aha that led me to eventually putting down my last vape for good. It really only takes one or two big thought shifts to entirely transform the way we see nicotine in our current lives and futures.
