They say addiction is addiction and merely an outward symptom of an inward issue. Porn is so often overlooked, laughed off or worse, vilified. Paul highlights the nature if addiction beautifully with a frank account of his journey through life from food addiction to porn and how he's smashing his recovery today through taking absolute ownership and learning how to naturally quieten his mind. An incredible insight to an addiction so often hidden. Paul is definitely the Hero in this story.

Gambling is the silent addiction. This is the classic tale of a young man with the biggest of ambitions getting everything he ever wanted but feeling like he doesn't deserve to be there when he makes it, how gambling came to rule his life and how he clawed his way back to the top after some real dark times. Imposter? James always was the real deal - he just didn't know it but he does now and Nothing Is Imposterble for this Hero. We were blown away with the similarities between gambling and booze addiction and the wisdom, oof the wisdom,  is hard hitting and profound. Whether you're on the booze, the gear or the tables - get your ears into this.
