This is a personal file that follows the steps of Patrick Bet-David and Steve Harvey. PBD says accumulating emotional memories to add impact to your affirmations. Steve Harvey says write the vision and make it plain. Both are tied to God. I'd encourage you to do the same! I'm back to meditating an hour in the morning then doing 20 minutes of yoga. 30 day goal- no porn, no smoking, meditate every day. I'll be listening to this episode every morning on the treadmill as I walk a few minutes to wake up before starting to meditate. Happy New Year everyone!
Good to be back with you, I completed a 3 day fast and that is sort of the focus of this podcast. I did not mention but the physical effects were very good, I lost weight and my aches and pains started disappearing at hr 52. I also cut out water for 24 hours in the middle and that wasn't as bad as I thought, but it took me way longer to rehydrate than I expected. For 3 days after the fast was over I would get dehydrated after eating a meal. Curious! Like, peeing clear before the meal then after the meal it would be dark yellow. Overall it was a good experience and I'd like to do it again but this time cut out the water for 36 hours.
In this episode we look into the book of Romans to better understand the weakness of the flesh compared to the righteousness of the Spirit.
Awesome conversation about quitting with Taurua from New Zealand!
I mentioned last episode that I was going to be hosting meetings for folks who want to talk about quitting, I'd like to hold off on that until after I get back from this family vacation. I suspect they will be evenings at 8pm EST, but I'll talk about all the Zoom info (login, meeting ID, etc) in the actual podcast so AI or other such devious computer folks will have more trouble figuring it out and hacking in. Talk to you later!
Hi everyone, it's good to be back. I'm going to start hosting meetings for anyone interested in Zooming in to talk about sobriety. They won't be in the AA format but I'll describe all of that in detail on the next episode. I won't record them unless people consent to that, and will still be dropping regular episodes. Happy Independence Day.
Just touching base, still clean! New episodes are in the works...
A message from the woman we all know and love! No intro/outro music to this one I'm very sorry, having some serious tech issues.

Hang in there y'all! "Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and there are many who enter through it." Matthew 7:13
Awesome conversation about quitting with Lisa from Florida! If you're interested in sharing your journey to help lift someone up please email me at quittingmarijuanapodcast@gmail.com
When I first started doing triathlons, the idea of swimming 800m, biking 12 miles, and running 3 miles all in a row seemed massive. It got the respect of everyone around me, and the respect of the participants as well. Then the sport started to boom, and the internet became more prevalent. All of a sudden a "sprint" triathlon was no big deal compared to an olympic distance, or a half-iron, or a full Ironman. Before long both my dad and I felt like finishing a sprint wasn't something to be very proud of, even though we didn't actually know anyone in our own social circle who could even finish the sprints that we were doing, let alone race them to try and get a good placement in our age category. The same thing happened this past year to my aunt in Vermont who got into hiking. She had 0 experience so she started with group hikes at local places, fairly flat. Then transitioned to group hikes of small peaks. Then a few solo hikes, and group/solo hikes of larger peaks. Her self-confidence was soaring, she was doing things she never thought she could do. Then when she became entrenched in the "community" she started meeting people and seeing folks on forums who were hiking out of state, who were solo-backpacking, who could do huge miles in a single day. All of a sudden she stopped being proud of herself, even though the people in her social circle weren't doing the kinds of things she was doing. Don't let social media and the internet disillusion you. If you are running a few miles every day, or lifting weights every other day, or meditating 10 minutes a day, ask yourself "Who do I know at the place where I work that is also doing these things?" I bet you can count them on one hand. Respect the work you're putting in, 98% of those around us are not doing what we're doing. Don't let the outliers on social media or the internet forums dictate how you judge yourself. Remember to find satisfaction in the struggle, and peace in the moment.
Hope everyone is doing well, remember that March comes in like a lion!
I'm a dumbass! Tried to put together a streak before podcasting with you and did hit 40+ days, then broke down and smoked before the trip to Florida and during the trip to Florida. Thankfully I didn't get caught but please look forward to more regular Sunday morning podcasts.
Absolutely incredible, she has been moving and shaking and she is now beyond the 300 day mark. The legend grows!
It's been a grind but still going strong! Hope you all are hanging in there.
Gooood morning! If you're on the wagon, great! If you fell off the wagon, get back on! Workout routine, avoiding temptation, and moving forward as a family.
Quick update on what the show will look like moving forward. Thanks for listening!
