Talking points: traumaThis week, I sit down with Tim Fletcher to explore the deep and often misunderstood world of complex trauma. We unpack how subtle childhood experiences like emotional neglect or identity suppression can shape our nervous systems, relationships, and sense of self for decades. Tim breaks down the science and psychology behind trauma and its complexity, and offers insights into how healing actually happens. If you've ever struggled with anxiety, emotional reactivity, or feeling disconnected, this one is for you.(00:00:00) – Introduction to Tim Fletcher and What Is Complex Trauma?(00:06:20) – Subtle Forms of Childhood Trauma(00:12:00) – Simple vs. Complex Trauma(00:19:20) – Adult Symptoms of Complex Trauma(00:28:10) – How Trauma Shapes the Brain(00:37:50) – Recovery and Co-regulation(00:54:00) – Presence, Addiction, and ConnectionTim Fletcher started helping people as a pastor over 30 years ago. When he experienced some significant personal trauma, he transitioned into the addiction treatment sector. Over the last 15 years through countless hours of counselling sessions, training in the various treatment programs and building on the research of Gabor Mate, he started to correlate the connection between Complex Trauma and life problems. Tim was guided by statistics that over 90% of people with addiction challenges suffer from Complex Trauma. Tim is becoming widely-known across the globe and is sought after for counselling, teaching, training, and seminars.

In this episode, Molly dives deep into a topic that's both emotionally resonant and neurologically relevant: what's really going on when we feel like we “just don't care anymore” about our drinking habits or goals. This isn't about laziness or lack of willpower—it's often a sign of emotional burnout, a condition that physically alters our brain and chips away at our motivation and executive function.Molly explores how summer routines, vacations, and social gatherings can disrupt our usual anchors and lead to identity drift, making it harder to stay committed to alcohol-related goals. She breaks down the neuroscience of burnout, clarifies common misconceptions about decision fatigue, and introduces default reward thinking as a key player in why we revert to old habits.Key Topics Discussed:The true meaning behind the phrase “I just don't care anymore”The neuroscience of emotional burnout and its effect on decision-makingWhat recent studies really say about decision fatigueWhy summer can be a sneaky trigger for identity driftHow to reconnect with your identity as an alcohol minimalistFive Strategies to Reignite Motivation and Realign with Your Goals:Track Your Patterns – Pay attention to emotional and behavioral cues that precede drinking.Tweak Your Environment – Anticipate high-risk moments and set up better decision conditions.Create Identity Anchors – Align your choices with the kind of person you want to become.Practice Mindful Decision-Making – Make key decisions in advance and reinforce them.Take Micro Breaks – Restore your emotional energy to avoid burnout-induced apathy.Molly's Takeaway:Feeling like you don't care anymore doesn't mean you're broken. It means your brain is overloaded and you need to reconnect with your intrinsic identity. Motivation doesn't come from white-knuckling your way through—it comes from alignment, awareness, and intentional identity shifts.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 ★

On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the story of Mary and Martha. One of the important things Jesus emphasizes here in his discussion with Martha is the value of the passive life: true life in God is found not in the activity of service, or life under the law, but in the passivity of hearing. To have the better portion is to be a listener of God's gracious word, not one who strives for obedience.

Welcome to episode 218 with Lauren McQuistin, who is a musician, opera singer and author of No Lost Causes Club, a memoir that explores what navigating sobriety looks like in our modern world. She is also the creator behind one of my all-time favourite mental health related meme accounts @brutalrecovery. While in her early twenties, Lauren was told that her life expectancy could be as low as twenty-five if she did not stop drinking and in this episode, she joins me to chat about her experiences with addiction and her journey towards sobriety. We chat about growing up in rural Scotland, moving to America to become an opera singer and the mental health challenges that fuelled both her music career and her relationship with alcohol. And we chat about low self-esteem, getting sober, staying sober, accepting help when you really don't want to and how wonderful things happen when you realise that you're just not that special. Sobriety is big right now and, on the whole, that has to be a good thing but I think that how we talk about recovery often misses the mark. It's not all amazing experiences, new friendships and an exciting new lifestyle – although it can be these things – it's often messy and confusing and brutal and I love the way that Lauren talks about all the different sides of her experiences. And if all of that can be summed up with a great meme, then I am all for it!

Contact Welcomed HereMOD episodes have no shelf-life or expiration date. Our focus is principled so each episode reflects the immediate peace and stability of our Ever-Present Knowing Awareness that clarifies conflicted impressions manifest by the instability and hyper-reactivity of obsessive thoughts purely induced, “imagined reality”.While the Absolute nature of Life is an unadulterated gift - we earn our human experience. Good or bad, like it or not, it is how and what we think of Life, Reality, and Truth that complicate all the consequential forms of conflicted dysfunctional incapacities incorrectly blamed on life and human nature. It is not Life that is impossible, hard, or a struggle but imagining that our thoughts about it are omnipotent and as a result unchangeable. This addictive mental trend has the world of things and people seem in chronic need of change while we choose to inflict others with our thoughts to pretend we are not capable of causing such conflicts. This induced form of insanity once seen clearly is laughable. The only thoughts induced insanity seemingly overlook are the mistaken beliefs of their perpetrator. Acting like we're in a coma to maintain unnatural conditions does not affect our essence but causes over-dramatic mental and inter-reactive consequences. We choose how and what we think - and this news is good or bad dependent on how accurately, or honestly, our choices are conceded. We Know We Know. We Are Aware We Are Aware. We Are as We Are. Reality is unlimited and never changes. The idea that how and what we think creates reality suggests otherwise. Acting on backward thoughts leads to behaviors that are out of order reflecting a reversal of our natural fortune. Anxious, nervous and systemic disorders reflect this impossible attempt to reverse the Law and order of the universe. Dis-ease is the lack of ease created and maintained by such twisted mental acrobatics. Stress and Anxiety inhibit healing and so contribute to any ailments. Mentality is a bodily function. Mental disease is a physcial ailment leading to others as long as it is improperly diagnosed - any treatment will perpetuate its contagion. Principles affirm our indivisible nature. Sharing principles affirms and confirms our indivisibility as our nature. Inspiration is natural while desperation, depression, degradation and acting oblivious to what is obvious is a choice. Absolute Intelligence, Peace and Silence is Nature's nature since It does not change. The nature of nature is naturally our nature. Ignoring what is happening, acting as though it shouldn't be or isn't happening, produces the unintelligible jibbersh of ignorance - not reality.

Friday Night Live Twitter Space 11 July 2025In this episode, I explore the complex issues surrounding drug use and its cultural implications, inviting listeners to engage in thoughtful discussions. We address the romanticization of addiction and the importance of promoting a responsible perspective on substance use, distinguishing between medicinal and recreational contexts. A caller shares a personal narrative, sparking a deeper examination of the motivations behind drug use and raising questions about societal perceptions. Shifting focus, I discuss the intricacies of personal histories and forgiveness within dysfunctional family dynamics, advocating for healthy boundaries and productive relationships. Throughout our dialogue, I emphasize the importance of taking personal responsibility and fostering self-awareness in order to break free from past trauma. The episode concludes with a call for ongoing engagement and reflection as we navigate our individual journeys toward understanding and growth.FOLLOW ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxGET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Mindfulness Training for Smoking Cessation: Moderation of the Relationship Between Craving and Cigarette UseIn this episode, Dr. Jud Brewer and colleagues discuss a randomized clinical trial evaluating mindfulness training (MT) as a smoking cessation intervention. The study demonstrates how mindfulness decouples the link between craving and cigarette use by disrupting the addictive loop reinforced by craving. Results showed that increased mindfulness practice—both formal and informal—significantly reduced cigarette consumption and moderated the relationship between craving and smoking behavior. By teaching participants to observe and accept cravings rather than suppress them, MT offers a powerful, evidence-based approach to addiction treatment.Full Reference:Elwafi, H.

"At M2 The Rock, we fully respect the anonymity of all 12-step fellowships. In alignment with their traditions, we do not represent or speak on behalf of any of these groups. Our mission is to share hope, not affiliation."About M2 THE ROCK - MICHAEL MOLTHAN:I'm Michael Molthan, host of The M2 The Rock Show—one of the fastest-growing podcasts and shows on self-improvement, mental health, addiction recovery, and spiritual transformation. I'm so grateful you're here.I started M2 The Rock in 2017 to bring you conversations designed to make you happier, healthier, and more healed. Through raw and unfiltered discussions with experts, celebrities, thought leaders, and athletes, we uncover new perspectives on personal growth, recovery, and overcoming life's toughest challenges.My Story:What sets my journey apart is that there wasn't just one rock bottom—there were many. From being a successful luxury homebuilder to falling into addiction, homelessness, crime, and eventually 27 mugshots and prison, my life was in absolute chaos.Addiction was my temporary escape from childhood trauma, but it only led to destruction.It wasn't until I hit the lowest point imaginable that I finally found true freedom, redemption, and purpose. After an unexpected early release from prison in 2017, I walked 300 miles back to Dallas to turn myself in—only to be miraculously pardoned and told to “pay it forward.”And that's exactly what I've been doing ever since.My MissionI believe that rock bottom is not the end—it's a stepping stone to something greater.My goal is to redefine what "rock bottom" means by helping others rebuild their Spirit, Mind, and Body. On M2 The Rock, I speak openly about trauma, addiction, recovery, and the power of transformation. I don't shy away from topics like:✅ Trauma & Addiction – Understanding the root causes✅ Self-Sabotage & Mental Health – Breaking negative cycles✅ Codependency & Enabling – How relationships impact recovery✅ 12-Step Programs & Spiritual Healing – Finding true freedom✅ Religious Trauma & Personal Growth – Healing from past wounds"Everyone Is An Addict."Whether it's substances, work, validation, or negative thinking, we all have something we struggle with.But recovery is possible, and transformation is real.

In this episode, we're cracking open more than just cold ones, we're cracking open the chaos behind one of the biggest brand faceplants in recent alcohol history. Bud Light's PR blunder cost billions, tanked its street cred, and left big beer brands scrambling like a frat boy who forgot finals week.But this isn't just about beer. It's about identity, influence, and how the alcohol industry is getting a reality check as Gen Z and younger Millennials say, “Yeah, I'm good,” and reach for a coffee instead. We explore how the shifting culture around drinking is flipping the booze biz upside down, and why that's actually great news for anyone trying to live clean, clear-headed, and free.With a healthy dose of honesty and humor (because let's face it—this stuff is ridiculous and revealing), we unpack what big alcohol's identity crisis means for your own transformation and why now is the perfect time to go against the grain and level up.
The Lord made it known to me and I knew; then you showed me their deeds. But I was like a gentle lamb led to the slaughter. I did not know it was against me they devised schemes, saying, “Let us destroy the tree with its fruit, let us cut him off from the land of the living, that his name be remembered no more.” But, O Lord of hosts, who judges righteously, who tests the heart and the mind, let me see your vengeance upon them, for to you have I committed my cause. Therefore thus says the Lord concerning the men of Anathoth, who seek your life, and say, “Do not prophesy in the name of the Lord, or you will die by our hand”— therefore thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, I will punish them. The young men shall die by the sword, their sons and their daughters shall die by famine, and none of them shall be left. For I will bring disaster upon the men of Anathoth, the year of their punishment.” This is so beautifully explained and meditated on by Chad. Andrea Hammond sings "You Take It All".

Debout au comptoir, assis en terrasse, ou tranquillement à la maison ?À quel moment de la journée ? Plutôt expresso, allongé, crème, noisette ? Avec ou sans sucre ? Et est-ce qu'il est vraiment bon, ce café en France ? Enfin on parle d'un phénomène qui se développe dans le pays : les coffee shops. Qu'est-ce qu'on en pense ?

This episode is brought to you by Fatty15, LMNT and Audible. In this gripping and mind-opening conversation, Yale psychiatrist and author Dr. James Kimmel Jr. joins us to explore one of humanity's most primal urges—revenge. Drawing from neuroscience, psychology, and personal experience, Dr. Kimmel explains how revenge mimics addiction in the brain and why many of us unknowingly suffer from “revenge cravings.” He shares a deeply personal story of nearly acting on revenge as a teenager, the lessons he learned as a litigator-turned-researcher, and practical, science-backed ways to break the cycle. From mass shootings and bullying to road rage and “revenge bodies,” this episode dives deep into the psychology of retaliation, the illusion of justice, and how forgiveness may be the ultimate act of self-healing. ----- In this episode we discuss... 03:25 – What is revenge?
