Estil Wallace is a father, husband, entrepreneur and investor who has been sober for over 20 years (like Max!) Listen to him discuss his journey from addiction and homelessness to entrepreneurial business success...and all the highs and lows in between.   For More from Estil: cornerstonehealingcenter.com   Instagram and Youtube:  @estil_wallace  (Podcast: Struggle & Strive)   For More From Sober Coach/Substance Abuse Counselor Max Njist, visit MaxNijst.org

In this powerful episode, we speak with Jessica Parker, a coach who brings both lived experience and deep compassion to her work with individuals struggling with food addiction. At just nine years old, Jessica experienced the trauma of divorce and the sudden shift into a blended family with five new sisters. Food quickly became the language of love in her home, but it also fueled disordered eating patterns that spiraled into guilt, shame, and obsession around food. Years later, Jessica reached 360 pounds, underwent both gastric sleeve and gastric bypass surgeries, and began to see firsthand the limitations of relying on restriction and surgery alone.Today, Jessica is abstinent from offending foods and volume and thriving after decades of obesity, two major surgeries, and a history of drug and food addiction. A graduate of the INFACT School, she combines science with empathy to guide clients seeking relief. She knows the struggle of trying to control food and weight with willpower or medical intervention and offers a spiritual and recovery-based solution that goes deeper than restriction. Her work centers on teaching that freedom from food obsession is possible—through abstinence, recovery, and connection.Jessica is passionate about meeting people before they undergo gastric bypass surgery, helping them explore a path to recovery that doesn't rely solely on surgery. With warmth and honesty, she shares her own journey of learning to recognize emotions like anger, breaking free from food obsession, and discovering true freedom. Connect with her on Facebook at Taste of Freedom (https://www.facebook.com/people/A-Taste-of-Freedom/61576852342384/), on Instagram at A Taste of Freedom Coaching (https://www.instagram.com/atasteoffreedom.coaching), or reach out directly at email: jparker.atof@gmail.com to learn more about her coaching and recovery approach.

What happens when a betrayed partner is told that their trauma is detrimental to an addict's recovery? In this discussion, we unpack why this perspective is outdated, harmful, and rooted in misunderstanding. We explore the difference between sobriety and true recovery, how shame resiliency plays a role, and why betrayal trauma responses are valid—not intentional attempts to sabotage healing. Recovery requires accountability, empathy, and facing reality, not avoidance. Key insights in this video: - Why betrayal trauma is not detrimental, but a natural trauma response - The difference between recovery vs. sobriety in addiction healing - How shame resiliency supports accountability and growth - Why outdated therapeutic advice can harm both the addict and the betrayed partner - The importance of seeing trauma responses as unintentional, not blame-worthy Healing is not about avoiding the mirror that a partner holds up—it's about learning to face it, accept responsibility, and build resilience. Both individuals deserve support and accurate, trauma-informed guidance to move toward real recovery. #BetrayalTrauma #AddictionRecovery #ShameResilience #TraumaHealing #SobrietyVsRecovery #RelationshipHealing #AccountabilityInRecovery #HealingJourney

In this episode (#299), Mark and Steve respond to a betrayed partner's story of exhaustion after five years of broken promises from her addict spouse. Despite his grand gestures—weekly check-ins, new hobbies, and podcast listening—he repeatedly relapses and becomes defensive when confronted. This cycle leaves her hyper-vigilant, carrying the weight of the household, and feeling unseen and dismissed. The hosts emphasize that her pain and misery are valid and reflect the natural toll of betrayal trauma.From the addict perspective, they explore why big gestures rarely last: they are usually attempts at damage control rather than authentic recovery. Addicts often react with defensiveness and irritability, avoiding accountability because of shame, fear, and resistance to change. This defensiveness poisons intimacy, keeping the relationship stuck in a pattern of false starts and inevitable disappointment.The path forward lies not in more monitoring or empty promises, but in authentic change. For partners, that means setting clear boundaries that reclaim agency and stop enabling the cycle. For addicts, it requires leaving behind reactivity and committing to proactive, consistent recovery practices. Healing is possible, but only when both partners step out of the destructive cycle and choose honesty, vulnerability, and daily integrity over grand but fleeting gestures.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to:   Big Gestures, Broken Trust—Living in the Cycle of Empty CommitmentsLearn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

Ever buy a toy that says “Ages 4+” and think, “Perfect, I'm 40+”? This week the Cracktastic Plastic crew is tackling those mysterious age classifications you see on toy packaging. Why does one action figure come with a choking hazard warning while another says “Collector Item, Not a Toy”? We'll break down the USCPSC guidelines (that's the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission for all you acronym haters) and find out what makes a toy safe for kids—or just unsafe enough for us grown-ups to want it more. From sharp missiles to bite-sized accessories, we'll cover the weird world of toy safety with plenty of collector laughs along the way. Then we'll talk about The Toy Addict to see if we should go there someday.

We first discuss what addiction is, and the concepts of disease, disorder, and dysfunction. We talk about social stigma and whether it works in fighting against addiction. We discuss whether addicts can stop being addicts. We talk about subjective realism, and why a subjective account of addiction is important.

In this episode of the Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson speaks with Josh Dickinson about the transformative power of flow states in recovery. They explore how movement, particularly surfing, can facilitate healing and personal growth. Josh shares insights from his experience as an addictions counselor and trauma specialist, emphasizing the importance of engagement and mindfulness in therapeutic practices. The conversation delves into the science behind flow, the stages of the flow cycle, and the spiritual connection that can arise from activities like surfing. They also discuss the balance between adrenaline and flow states, and how these experiences can enhance self-esteem and overall well-being. Finally, Josh provides information about his program, Resurface UK, which combines therapeutic practices with engaging activities to support individuals on their recovery journey. Takeaways Flow states can significantly enhance recovery processes. Engagement in activities like surfing promotes mindfulness. The flow cycle consists of struggle, release, flow, and recovery phases. Adrenaline and flow states serve different purposes in healing. Self-esteem is crucial for individuals in recovery. Movement therapy can lead to deeper emotional processing. Therapeutic activities should follow flow experiences for best results. Spiritual connections can be fostered through nature and movement. Positive psychology principles can be integrated into recovery. Programs like Resurface UK offer innovative approaches to healing.

Leanne is back with Scott and Ketric for another episode of our "Ask the God Pod" series. This week they tackle a question many newcomers to faith share: What does prayer look like? In this episode of "Ask the God Pod," Scott and Ketric are back to tackle a listener's heartfelt question about coping with the immense stress of supporting a loved one struggling with addiction. For over two decades, this listener has been on a turbulent journey alongside her brother, who battles alcoholism. Initially driven by the hope of saving him, the toll on her own well-being has become increasingly apparent. She's endured the emotional rollercoaster of multiple rehab attempts, homelessness, and hospitalizations, all while feeling the weight of responsibility grow heavier. As the stress seeped into every aspect of her life, from relationships to her own health, she wants to know how to detach from the drama and reclaim a sense of control and peace amidst the chaos. Join us as we explore the power of perspective, resilience, and faith in navigating the challenges of loving someone through addiction.

Here's the issue—compliments by friends, family and others, aimed at an addict in recovery, can create painful triggers for betrayed partners, who know both the admirable qualities others see and the secret story of betrayal they carry. For partners, hearing “he's such a great guy” can feel invalidating and isolating, as if the hidden wounds don't matter. They may wonder if they are the problem for feeling hurt, and at times, even face gaslighting from addicts who deflect or minimize their concerns.The tension lies in the gap between public image and private reality. Using the metaphor of a “secret sexual basement,” we see how the addict's public face often draws praise while the partner alone carries knowledge of the hidden side. Navigating this dynamic requires careful balance—between authenticity and discretion, between validating the partner's pain and protecting privacy, and between acknowledging progress while still honoring past harm.Ultimately, recovery means choosing empathy and proactivity. Addicts can lead by checking in with their partners after triggering moments, acknowledging how compliments might sting, and creating space for open dialogue. Couples together can decide what level of transparency feels safe, remembering that disclosure is not a solo act but a shared journey. When both partners embrace authenticity with compassion, they can integrate the painful past with a healthier present and move forward stronger together.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to:  Everyone Thinks He's Great . . .  But They Don't Know the Whole Story!Learn more about Mark and Steve's revolutionary online porn/sexual addiction recovery and betrayal trauma healing program at—daretoconnectnow.comFind out more about Steve Moore at:  Ascension CounselingLearn more about Mark Kastleman at:  Reclaim Counseling Services

In this compelling episode, we tackle the challenging subject of emotional avoidance and addiction recovery. Jay opens up about his struggles with feelings of abandonment, insecurity, and boredom, which led him to turn to porn. We discuss the importance of facing these emotions head-on, rather than fleeing from them, as well as HEALTHIER coping mechanisms and the significance of accepting, rather than resisting, life's emotional challenges. We start with testimonials from listeners that underscore the impact of Jay's vulnerability and transparency in helping betrayed spouses on their recovery journeys. Highlights of this episode: - The shocking fear a 6'0" ex-military man couldn't face (this will surprise you) - Why boredom is actually dangerous and how it triggers relapse cycles - The difference between wanting to numb emotions vs. learning to feel them (game-changer) - How to tell if you're using 'recovery' to avoid real healing (most people miss this) - The #1 sign you might be addicted (hint: it's about 5-second interactions) - Practical coping techniques that actually work long-term (not just band-aids) TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Intro and Listener Feedback 04:05 Why BOREDOM is an issue for addicts 05:28 Dealing with PAST TRAUMAS 06:43 What truths were you refusing to face? 07:22 A fear Jay had not dealt with 09:20 Any truths about yourself you were afraid to face? 09:41 What did those fears feel like in your body? 11:23 Which of the feelings were THE MOST UNBEARABLE? 11:41 Did running away work? 14:16 Did you think NUMBNESS WAS A STRENGTH? 15:40 When did you first start using coping techniques to deal with those emotions? 16:31 SOLUTION: TO build RESILIENCE, ask "What bad really happens?" 18:18 What could you 'not handle'?

This summer, we're reflecting on the ten most common questions we hear from our relationship and sex therapy clients. We often hear folks talk about their sexuality in negative ways, comparing their sexuality, consumption of porn, and masturbation practices to that of addiction.    We self-diagnose as sex addicts, or we diagnose our partners as sex or porn addicts. And in doing so, we eliminate the opportunity for curiosity, to learn about our fantasies, our curiosities, our erotic templates, and our hopes.    In this episode, we talk with Dr. Eric Sprankle (@drsprankle on IG), author of DIY: The Wonderfully Weird History and Science of Masturbation, about what we miss when we rely on the language of "porn addiction". The historical roots of anti-masturbation and moral panics. The value of our relationships with ourselves as sexual people. Media literacy. Effective ways of managing disgust. The distinction between privacy and secrecy. Navigating rejection and other emotions when our partners choose a sexual interaction with themselves over us.

In this episode of Addict to Athlete, host Coach Blu Robinson continues his powerful War on Drugs series with its fourth installment, taking listeners deep into one of the most controversial chapters of America's anti-drug efforts. Coach Blu examines the Reagan administration of the 1980s, the rise of the “Just Say No” campaign, and the overwhelming tidal wave of anti-drug commercials that saturated television screens across the nation.   Through a critical lens, he unpacks how these campaigns—though well-intentioned—often missed the mark, leaving behind a legacy of fear-based messaging, stigmatization, and unintended consequences for the youth they were designed to protect. Coach Blu highlights the failures and shortcomings of these initiatives, revealing how simplistic slogans and scare tactics failed to address the deeper roots of addiction and substance use.   Please join Addict to Athlete's Patreon support page and help us turn the mess of addiction into the message of sobriety! https://www.patreon.com/addicttoathlete   Please visit our website for more information on Team Addict to Athlete and Addiction Recovery Podcasts. https://www.AddictToAthlete.org

In this episode of The Addict to Athlete podcast, Coach Blu delves into the profound impact World War II had on soldiers, focusing on the often-overlooked aftermath of addiction among veterans. He explores how the intense pressures of war led to widespread use of substances like methamphetamines, particularly highlighting Nazi Germany's controversial program to create "super soldiers" by administering these drugs to enhance performance and endurance. Coach Blu connects these historical insights to the broader challenges athletes and individuals face with addiction, emphasizing the long-term physical and psychological effects that can persist long after the battlefield. This episode offers a compelling blend of history, science, and human resilience, shedding light on the complex legacy of war and substance use.

We're all just trying to get through life in this messed-up world, and whether we realize it or not, we all go looking for a “fix” to help us cope with the pain, uncertainties, or difficulties we face.  Sometimes those fixes seem harmless, and other times, they spiral into habits we can't break. So, today on the 4:13, best-selling author, psychotherapist, and Enneagram expert Ian Morgan Cron will challenge the way you think about addiction. He'll explain what addiction really is, how everyone is addicted to something, and why the 12 Steps aren't just for alcoholics—they're for all of us. Whether you've struggled with overeating, overworking, perfectionism, or just find yourself stuck in a bad habit or unhealthy cycle, you'll discover that addiction isn't just “their” problem. It's all of ours. We're all prone to self-destructive behaviors that ultimately create more problems than they solve. But here's the good news: there's a path to freedom. And it's not about white-knuckling your way through change—it's about a grace-powered transformation that leads to spiritual awakening.  SHOW NOTES: 413Podcast.com/362  Enter to win the GIVEAWAY and read the episode TRANSCRIPT in the show notes.
