Recovering You

If you have ever been in a relationship, where your partner was gaslighting you, you know just how frustrating and horrible it is to be made to feel like you are crazy and you are the problem all the time. But this is a common technique among abusers and manipulators and red flag individuals. They want you to admit that you are the only one with a problem and that it's always your fault in someway.

One of the most important attributes we need to look for another's, and demonstrate within ourselves as the ability to allow grace and forgiveness for others.

At no point should we ever allow someone else to be in charge of our emotions. This is a common tactic for control and abuse and needs to be pointed out and identified as a red flag.

It's an aspect of relationships to be worked on, cared for, practiced and developed just like anything else we are passionate about.

The other three top parts of the pyramid will be discussed in future episodes.

There is a big difference between taking a step back and stepping away. As we begin to grow older and learn more and more what our values are, we will find ourselves drawn to certain principles, people, careers, relationships, and pathways of life. And we will find ourselves, pulling away from others. It is our responsibility to evaluate Each of those things and determine what our core values are and why it's important that we stay true to those values. In order to do this, most effectively, we need to make sure that we don't just turn away, but we take a step back and evaluate our lives, and the processes that we go through. It's important that we lean into what is best for us and our lives. And as painful as this might be sometimes, we will need to set boundaries in order to establish a zone around ourselves of safety and confidence. We set boundaries because that's how we show people how to love us best. As difficult as it might be. We need to remember that we don't live this life for others, we live this life to reach our greatest potential, and do what we must to return to our heavenly father. Have you had to change course or establish boundaries in your life? We would love to hear about it.

It might seem pretty obvious to think about the difference between supporting someone's recovery from addiction, and being the one who is actually enabling and allowing them to continue in their addictions or poor behaviors. But there is one thing that blurs the lines between these two concepts. And that is love. When we care about people, we don't want to hurt their feelings and we don't want to make life more difficult for them so we cater to their needs and coddle them and ultimately we become the thing that is stopping them from making real and lasting changes in their life. in this episode, we talk about how to love someone enough to allow them to pack their own wagon and figure it out for themselves. Sometimes that requires some strict boundaries that might be painful for them. But ultimately will lead them to making the changes for the right reasons and for the long term.

This week we are joined by Dr. Brock Johansen who dives into the dangers of conforming to the norms of societal pressures, lifetime medications, and religous/familial expectations. How do we discern truth amidst so much information? Who do we blame for our current situation? Where do we turn for lasting recovery and healing? And where does grace come in to play? We also take advantage of Brock's in-depth knowledge of how to get off of medications by resolving the root issues through science and discovery. It could be environment, nutrition, or a more mental imbalance. Whatever it is, there is hope and help. And through it all, even as we are broken down and molded into something stronger and better, God is taking part in the process. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/recoveringyou/message

To find love and lose it, to start a life together and have it torn away, to raise a child who suddenly loses their life, to get that phone call that changes everything, to think that you had more time, only to have it stripped away by illness, tragedy, or any other means, is one of the most difficult and profound trials a person can go through. Today I am blessed to be joined by Joy Harris, who, at young age found love, and while she always knew her boyfriend had a risk of a shorter life with the cancer he was fighting, she never expected it to be over so soon. Their lives as a married couple had just started when the cancer came back with a vengeance and the good fight was lost. Join us today and hear her story of how she sought out healing and worked through the grief of losing a loved one who was gone too soon. And had to work through finding understanding and comfort and peace, to eventually find love again.

You wouldn't typically think that bringing a child into this world would be something that would cause you to lose a part of yourself. But it is one of the most common things for a woman to experience. Struggling through postpartum depression affects a huge percentage of women every single year. And the symptoms can be absolutely devastating and even dangerous. I was lucky enough to be joined this week by two amazing women (Kyra and Danica), who spoke about their struggles and fights that they went through after giving birth, and why it is so important to recognize the symptoms of PPD and to talk to someone about what's going on. There is no shame in seeking help and taking medications to balance the internal system that has been thrown off by child birth. For the sake of both Mother and child help is available. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/recoveringyou/message

It's every parents worst fear. To have your child come to you and tell you that someone who they thought was their friend, has been forcing them to do things for them, and to them, all in the name of loyalty and friendship. That kind of trauma leaves some serious scars, and if not dealt with pave the way for addiction and acting out. Anything to numb the pain of the past. Well, that's exactly what happened with Nate. But he did not sit and stay in victim mode. He fought through his trauma, he saw his potential, and he leaned into recovery and The Savior. And He is one of the most outstanding young men I've ever had the pleasure to meet. You've got to hear this story!

People love The Avengers. Why? Because of the diversity of super powers coming together in order to vanquish evil. I feel like that is exactly what we did in this episode. We brought together a group of mentors who have incredible stories and have made a huge difference in the world. Join me in part one of two of the season finale episodes where I am joined by my good friends and fellow mentors: Dallin, Seth, Brian and Jeff. We talk about how each of us decided to follow the path of mentorship and how it has not only impacted our lives, but it has completely changed the world around us. And I got to say, as much as I may have given some good advice in the past, these men do it 10x better! I loved every second of this and was blown away by this experience. Here are the questions we answer: - Why did you become a mentor/what is your favorite thing about being a mentor? - What is a powerful experience you've had while being a mentor? - How has addiction recovery awareness changed and where will it go from here? - What would you say is still lacking in the field of sexual self mastery and what is something you would add to/change to make it better?

You are full of power! And the enemy knows this. And Addiction, Trauma, Grief, Sin…all these things have a very real effect on us. They take away our belief that things can be better. They eliminate our hope. They attack our ability to fight back. And we start to think that we have no power. The truth is, We always have power though. And there is always hope, and the ability to change if we are willing to lean into that better life. In this episode I'm once again joined by Dallin Loosli. We talk about where we get our power, and how we maximize it. And I know I really shouldn't say it, cause lame jokes never sell, but this is an incredibly POWERFUL episode.

One of the greatest fears of parenting can be when you come to that moment, you know the one. The one about birds and bees. It can be so awkward and challenging. Well, what if I told you it doesn't have to be? What if it was just another chat over ice cream? What if you as a parent were the child's first thought for safe and reliable information, and not Google, or ignorant friends who got there knowledge from porn or tik tok? Maybe it's not even the sex talk, but instead it's something far more serious. Are you the first responder? Are you the safe choice to tell about things like assault, drugs, porn, rape, bullying etc…if you aren't trusted having those easy talks now, there is little chance you'll be trusted with the BIG stuff later.

What is a passion project and why is it so important to recovery? There is power in purpose.

When you lose a battle, what comes next? How do you keep from losing again? How do you turn that loss into an opportunity for growth and strength? That's what a lost battle analysis is all about. It's an opportunity to reflect on where we went wrong, from the moment we said, “screw it” all the way back through the irrational conversation, the “hey dude” moment, to the emotional struggles that had us compromised, and finally to that point where something we did or saw or smelled, or thought, caused us to disconnect from God. This tool is for EVERYONE! All humans alike. Because we all lose battles with ourselves when we break our values.
