    Chase Chrisley opens up to Ian Bick about his upbringing, growing up on reality television, and how fame at a young age shaped his life and decisions. He talks about leaving college, the pressures of being in the public eye, and how his struggles with drinking escalated as his family faced intense legal battles. Chase shares what it was like watching his parents' arrest, trial, and eventual prison sentence, and how visiting them behind bars took a heavy emotional toll that pushed his drinking even further. He also reflects on the moment everything changed — from his parents being pardoned to finally confronting his addiction, getting sober, and rebuilding his life with clarity and purpose. _____________________________________________ #ChaseChrisley #ChrisleyKnowsBest #RealityTV #CelebrityInterview #LifeAfterFame #AddictionRecovery #SobrietyJourney #truestory _____________________________________________ Thank you to GOLD DROP SELTZERS for sponsoring this episode: Head to https://www.thedryoak.com/ and use promo code LOCKEDIN at checkout for 10% off your order. _____________________________________________ Connect with Chase Chrisley: https://www.instagram.com/chasechrisley/?hl=en _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________` Timestamps: 00:00 Drinking, Family Pressure & Life in the Spotlight 01:00 Chase Chrisley's Childhood & Growing Up on Reality TV 05:00 Fame at a Young Age: Friends, School & Social Life 10:00 Early Partying, Alcohol & Family Dynamics 15:00 College Years & Early Signs of Trouble 20:00 Living Through the Indictment, Trial & Legal Battles 25:00 Conviction, Sentencing & Impact on the Family 31:00 Alcohol Abuse After Sentencing & Emotional Fallout 35:00 Rock Bottom, Addiction & the Decision to Get Sober 40:00 Visiting Parents in Prison & Public Scrutiny 46:00 Presidential Pardon & A Family's Second Chance 50:00 Rehab, Recovery & Rebuilding Life 55:00 Life After Sobriety: Lessons, Growth & Moving Forward Learn more about your ad choices.

    Christians live in a culture diametrically opposed to the way God designed them. We're spirit beings living in a carnal external environment filled with ungodly influences constantly pulling at us. These influences suggest that giving in to cravings and addictions—not the presence of God—will make us happy. The devil, who is behind those influences, attacks our thinking and tries his best to make us sin-conscious. We maintain our peace and joy when we're aware of our identity in Christ and refuse to let go of it.   o support the ministry financially, text "CDMPodcast" to 74483 or visit www.worldchangers.org

    In this episode, Duane Osterlind sits down with author Dana Bowman to discuss the often-overlooked intersection of long-term recovery and menopause. Dana opens up about her journey through "the second reckoning"—a period where hormonal shifts triggered intense anxiety, suicidal ideation, and the resurfacing of addictive behaviors like sugar addiction and "doom scrolling."They explore the concept of process addictions, the importance of self-advocacy in medical settings, and how creativity can serve as a vital tool for navigating the "identity attack" that often accompanies aging. Dana's story is a powerful reminder that recovery isn't a destination, but a deepening process that requires grace, honesty, and a willingness to "boop the monster on the nose."Key Discussion PointsThe "Invisible" Struggle of Menopause: Dana discusses how menopause is one of the least researched medical conditions, despite having over 70 potential symptoms. She highlights the specific danger for women in recovery: how hormonal anxiety can mimic the "dark days" of active addiction.Process Addictions in Recovery: When the biological substance (alcohol) is removed, other behaviors often rush in to fill the void. Dana shares her personal struggle with sugar addiction, binge eating, and digital escapism as ways to cope with menopausal distress.The Identity Attack: Aging and menopause can lead to "Invisible Woman Syndrome." Dana explains how surrendering to this new phase of life is similar to the initial surrender in early sobriety.The "Boop" Rule: A family strategy for facing fears. Instead of running from anxiety or shame, Dana teaches listeners to look the "clown" in the eye and "boop" it on the nose—acknowledging its presence without letting it take control.Medical Self-Advocacy: The importance of finding healthcare providers who understand the nuances of addiction and recovery when treating hormonal or mental health issues.The Spectrum of Menopause SymptomsMenopause is far more than just "hot flashes." It affects the physical, emotional, and cognitive systems, which can be particularly destabilizing for those maintaining long-term sobriety.CategoryCommon Symptoms MentionedPhysicalJoint aches, insomnia, changes in hair/skin, exhaustion.EmotionalSevere anxiety, panic attacks, depression, suicidal ideation.BehavioralReturn of "shame circles," hiding behaviors, sugar cravings.Memorable Quotes"Alcoholism waited for me... and that's how I felt about the menopause symptoms because they're so sneaky. You feel like your whole body is betraying you.""Recovery is all about acceptance and surrender. It's hard when it's your own identity to really say, 'Who am I anymore?'""There are times when my soul just needs to be wrapped in bubble wrap, and I just really need to hunker down into that. And it's okay. It's rest."Resources MentionedDana's New Book: Humble Pie: Sober Menopause, Sugar Addiction, and The Sweetness of RecoveryDana's Previous Books: Bottled and How to be Perfect Like Me2Website: DanaBowmanCreative.comSocial Media: Follow Dana on TikTok and Instagram @theDanaBoIf you live in California and are looking for counseling or therapy please check out Novus Mindful Life Counseling and Recovery CenterNovusMindfulLife.comWe want to hear from you.

    In this reflective episode, Molly explores the concept of emotional freedom—what it is, what it isn't, and how it's connected to both her personal story and the Alcohol Minimalist approach.Recorded on Martin Luther King Jr. Day and the day after what would have been her father's 98th birthday, Molly connects the legacies of two powerful men who shaped her understanding of what true strength looks like: calm, steady, and intentional.You'll learn how emotional regulation plays a critical role in creating lasting change with alcohol habits, and why your ability to pause between feeling and acting is key to sustainable freedom. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and her own lived experience, Molly unpacks the subtle but powerful shift from automatic drinking to intentional living.Topics DiscussedWhy emotional freedom isn't about never feeling uncomfortableThe Viktor Frankl quote that changed Molly's approach to habit changeHow emotional avoidance and low distress tolerance fuel drinking patternsThe role of the basal ganglia in automatic habits and how to rewire itHer father's example of strength without reactivityHow to use the PB&J tool (Pause, Breathe, Just Ten Minutes) to interrupt urgesA deeper look into the “Figuring Out Your Feelings” chapter from Breaking the Bottle LegacyKey Quotes“Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” — Viktor Frankl “You can tell the size of a man by the size of the thing that makes him mad.” — Adlai Stevenson, as taught to Molly by her fatherResources MentionedBreaking the Bottle Legacy by Molly Watts – especially the chapter “Figuring Out Your Feelings”Drink-Less Success: A 30-day self-paced program based in neuroscience and habit psychology Includes the audiobook version of Breaking the Bottle Legacy Learn more at: mollywatts.com/drink-less-successWeekly Reflection PromptWhat does emotional freedom mean to me right now? Not in theory. Not for the future. But right now.Ask yourself:Where am I reactive?Where could I create more space?What would it look like to respond instead of escape?Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

    In this episode of her solo series, Lisa examines addiction dynamics in food and eating, integrating neurobiology, trauma, and behavioral psychology with personal narrative. She distinguishes substance vs. behavior addictions and reframes the “food addiction” debate as a semantic distraction, emphasizing why behaviors become compulsive. The discussion links binge eating and self-harm through positive and negative reinforcement, underscores capitalist food industry influence, and advocates grief, radical acceptance, and surrender as foundations for change. A personal story traces undereating/overexercise, malnourishment, cognitive impairment, medical oversight, and eventual surrender from rigid weight control to health-centric practices, leading to weight stabilization and improved well-being.Topics Include:Addiction ModelFood and Eating BehaviorsGrief, Acceptance, and SurrenderDisordered Eating[1:08] Lisa begins by acknowledging her own perfectionistic impulse and the importance of taking "messy action" to overcome it, revisiting the topic of addiction from the previous episode to clarify her stance on food addiction. [4:03] Lisa argues that the debate over whether food addiction is real misses the point; the conversation should focus on understanding and effectively treating the issue, acknowledging that it is both similar to and different from other addictions. She presents the addiction model distinguishing between substance addictions (e.g., drugs) and behavioral addictions (e.g., gambling). She explains that the relationship with food is unique because it involves both a substance (food) and a behavior (eating).[6:12] Lisa discusses how on the substance side, hyper-palatable, high-fat, high-sugar foods trigger a strong reward reaction (dopamine, serotonin) in the brain. On the behavior side, eating-related behaviors like overeating, undereating, and binging can become addictive. Lisa introduces Dr. Gabor Maté's definition of addiction. It shows that any behavior can provide temporary relief/pleasure and craving, but causes long-term negative consequences, with an inability to stop. This model applies to both overeating and undereating. Lisa clarifies she is not saying "food is a drug," but that "some people can use food like a drug" for emotional coping.[34:14] Lisa discusses radical acceptance of one's current reality as the first step toward transformation, which involves grieving the relationship with food one wishes they had.[51:43] Lisa shares a personal story about her weight loss journey. After losing about 80 pounds around December 2012, she experienced severe physical symptoms like lightheadedness, hair loss, and cognitive impairment due to malnourishment, even though multiple doctors offered no clear answers. Lisa's personal research into the ACE study and the National Weight Control Registry revealed that both childhood trauma and the habits of successful dieters (low-calorie diet, daily exercise) were linked to her struggles.[1:00:20] Lisa's big surrender moment when she chose to stop dieting, facing an unknown outcome, rather than continue a cycle she knew would lead to more weight gain. She stopped weighing herself, shifted her focus from weight-centric to health-centric goals, prioritized food quality over quantity, and incorporated practices like meditation. Surrender, though frightening and uncomfortable, is a crucial step.[1:19:46] Lisa closes this episode by sharing what topics are to come and inviting listeners to email her with any questions at lisaschlosberg@gmail.com⁠. *The views of podcast guests do not necessarily reflect the views and beliefs of Lisa Schlosberg or Out of the Cave, LLC.LISA IS NOW ACCEPTING: One-on-One Clients!⁠Purchase the OOTC book of 50 Journal Prompts⁠⁠Leave Questions and Feedback for Lisa via OOTC Pod Feedback Form ⁠Email Lisa: ⁠lisa@lisaschlosberg.com⁠⁠Out of the Cave Merch⁠ - For 10% off use code SCHLOS10Lisa's Socials: Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠ ⁠YouTube⁠

    In this episode, Colleen unpacks one of the most misunderstood truths in emotional sobriety: drinking isn't a character issue — it's a nervous system response to chronic stress, shame, and unmet needs. Drawing from The Myth of Normal by Gabor Maté, she explains why so many of us learned to survive in environments that never felt safe — and how culture, economics, and generational trauma quietly wire our bodies to seek relief wherever we can find it. This episode explores why healing often makes the urge to numb louder at first, how shame removes our sense of choice, and why compassion isn't a feeling you wait for — it's a perspective you practice. Colleen reframes healing not as fixing what's broken, but as recovering the parts of yourself that adapted to survive. This is a conversation about why the drink was never the point — and how emotional sobriety begins when you understand what the behavior has been protecting you from.

Building on his previous appearance, he expands on trauma, attachment, and epigenetics, while challenging outdated intervention models and the damaging belief that addiction is simply a choice. He explains how impaired decision-making, toxic shame, and nervous system dysregulation keep people trapped in cycles of relapse and self-destruction. Through compelling analogies and real-world clinical examples, he clarifies why education is one of the most critical tools in saving lives. Geoffrey also discusses how addiction affects not just the individual, but entire family systems, often pulling loved ones into their own form of emotional dysregulation. The conversation emphasizes the importance of compassion without enabling, accountability without punishment, and support rooted in neuroscience rather than fear.Check out Geoffrey's First Episode:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeJN23-Gsx4#thehopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

    Worksheet: Meeting Your ShadowHave you ever done something and then wondered, "Who was that? That wasn't me"?Maybe it was a relapse. A hurtful comment you didn't mean to say. Or that familiar feeling of sabotaging yourself right when things were finally going well. The uncomfortable truth? It was you—just a part of you that's been hiding in the shadows.In this episode of The Addicted Mind, Duane and Eric Osterlind explore one of psychology's most powerful concepts: the shadow self. First named by psychiatrist Carl Jung, the shadow is the unconscious part of your personality where you've stuffed everything you think is unacceptable—your anger, jealousy, selfishness, and those desires you don't want anyone to see.Here's the problem: what you repress grows in the dark.The more you ignore these hidden parts of yourself, the stronger they become. And for those struggling with addiction, the shadow often becomes the invisible force that hijacks your recovery and drives you back into old patterns. It's exhausting trying to be "good" all the time while fighting a war inside yourself.But here's the twist that might surprise you: your shadow isn't just the "bad" parts. It also contains buried treasures—your creativity, your passion, your drive. These gifts often get locked away because they seemed "too much" or not acceptable to the people around you.The goal of shadow work isn't to destroy these parts of yourself. It's not about fixing something that's broken. As Duane and Eric discuss, drawing from Internal Family Systems therapy, there are no bad parts. Every part of you is trying to help in some way, even if that help has become distorted over time.Instead, shadow work is about integration—bringing these hidden parts into the light so you can understand them and find healthy outlets for their energy. When you stop running from your shadow, something amazing happens: you free up all the energy you were using to keep that basement door locked. That energy becomes available for your recovery, your relationships, and your life.In this episode, you'll learn two practical ways to start exploring your shadow safely. First, pay attention to what annoys you in other people. That strong reaction? It's often pointing to something you've disowned in yourself. Second, get curious about your negative traits instead of shaming them. That anger you hate? It might be protecting you. That laziness? It might be your body begging for rest.The path to freedom isn't about becoming perfect. It's about becoming whole. A real person has a shadow—and meeting yours might be the most important step you take in your recovery.Key TopicsWhat is the shadow self? Carl Jung's concept of the unconscious parts of our personality we've denied, rejected, or repressedWhy whatever you repress grows in the dark—and how this fuels addiction and self-sabotageThe shadow isn't all bad—hidden within it are creativity, passion, and driveIntegration vs. fixing—why there are "no bad parts" and what that means for recoveryThe projection exercise—how what annoys you in others reveals your own shadowGetting curious instead of shaming—finding the positive intention behind negative traitsWholeness over perfection—reclaiming the energy spent hiding from yourselfTimestamps[00:01:00] – Introduction: Have you ever felt like there's another part of you living inside?[00:03:00] – The pain point: Self-sabotage and the exhaustion of trying to be good all the time[00:05:00] – Carl Jung's shadow concept explained: The bag we drag behind us[00:06:00] – The twist: Your shadow contains hidden gifts, not just darkness[00:08:00] – Integration vs. fixing: Why there are no bad parts[00:09:00] – Action step #1: Exploring your projections—what annoys you in others[00:11:00] – Action step #2: Getting curious about your negative traitsSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Healing Your Inner Child, The Neuroscience of Addiction & NeuroRepatterningCravings are not a lack of willpower. They are learned neurological responses.In this episode, I go deep into the neuroscience of addiction and relapse, breaking down what cravings actually are, why they feel so compelling, and how unresolved emotional memory and inner child wounds quietly drive the urge to escape.You will learn how the brain wires alcohol to relief, safety, and regulation and why traditional recovery approaches fail to address the deeper neural and emotional patterns that keep people stuck in cycles of quitting and relapsing.This episode introduces the core mental models behind NeuroRepatterning and explains how sustainable freedom from alcohol comes from retraining the nervous system, reprocessing emotional memory, and restoring internal safety rather than relying on suppression or willpower.Inside this conversation, you will explore:• The neuroscience of cravings and why they are prediction errors, not commands• How early emotional experiences shape adult coping patterns and addictive behavior• Why inner child work is essential for long-term sobriety and emotional regulation• How unresolved trauma lives in the nervous system and drives relapse• What NeuroRepatterning is and how it rewires the brain at both conscious and unconscious levels• Practical ways to move through cravings without fighting yourselfThe Stop Drinking Coach is a neuroscience-informed alcohol recovery and life coaching system built on seven core pillars:• Proactive lifestyle transformation across mind, body, spirit, and neurochemistry• Daily dopamine optimization to support mood, motivation, and up to 80 percent fewer cravings• Tactical emotional and nervous system regulation skills• Weekly coaching calls, community integration, and accountability structures• A clear, step-by-step path to healing trauma through guided meditative and neural reprocessing experiences• Tools to reprocess past memories, reclaim personal power, and define a clear future identity• A private, judgment-free community rooted in growth, empowerment, and self-respectThis approach allows you to let go of alcohol in a way that feels natural, embodied, and sustainable by addressing the real drivers beneath the behavior.Thank you to everyone who continues to listen and support this work.

    By mid-January, many people are still taking action toward change but feel increasingly unsure of themselves. In this Think Thursday episode, Molly introduces the concept of identity lag to explain why behavior often changes before belief does and why that gap can feel uncomfortable.Building on recent conversations about the Fresh Start Effect and the neuroscience of follow-through, this episode explores what happens in the brain when new behaviors challenge long-held self-stories. Molly explains how identity is shaped through evidence over time, why self-doubt often peaks after consistency begins, and how cognitive dissonance plays a central role in this phase of change.Rather than seeing discomfort as a sign that something is wrong, listeners are invited to understand identity lag as a normal and necessary transition in sustainable behavior change.What You'll LearnWhy behavior change often feels awkward before it feels alignedWhat identity lag is and why it shows up in mid-JanuaryHow the brain prioritizes stability and safetyWhy confidence does not come first in lasting changeHow cognitive dissonance creates tension during growthWhy self-doubt often increases after consistency beginsHow identity actually updates through repetition and evidenceKey Concepts ExplainedIdentity lag as the gap between behavior and beliefDefault mode network and self-referential processingCognitive dissonance and the brain's drive for consistencyEvidence accumulation in identity-based behavior changeNeuroplasticity and learning across time and contextImpostor syndrome as a byproduct of uncertainty during growthCore Takeaways from the EpisodeBehavior leads and identity followsFeeling unfamiliar does not mean being misalignedSelf-doubt is information, not instructionConfidence grows from repetition, not declarationsConsistent behavior resolves cognitive dissonance over timeOver time, research shows that behavior is often what resolves cognitive dissonance, not beliefs.When behavior stays consistent, identity eventually follows.That's why you don't have to convince yourself.

    Trump delivered a major economic speech yesterday, in which he advocated for all the policies that created inflation, fake wealth, and the K-shaped economy to begin with. He wants endless near-zero interest rates and more juicing of the housing and stock-market bubbles. Also, everything he is doing is executive actions with no plan to codify them in Congress. Next, I explain how Bibi Netanyahu is pushing for a phaseout of aid to his country, while Trump shockingly opposes it. Our main discussion today is about letting the housing bubble deflate on its own. We're joined by Melody Wright, a mortgage finance and housing policy expert, who explains how prices are already coming down. There will be a crash, but on balance, that is a good thing. The problem is that everything the government is doing will lead to price increases. Trump is also misdiagnosing the problem as one of interest rates and supply. In fact, developers have overbuilt in most parts of the country. Rather than treating the delayed symptom of corporate ownership, the time has come to treat the cause, which is government ownership of housing. Let the bubble pop! Learn more about your ad choices.
