Ben Lee was a teen rock prodigy at the age of 14.What followed was decades of making music, Hollywood fame, and a journey into alternative spirituality, including time at an Ashram in India, and exploring the world of ayahuasca, a hallucinogen found in a vine in the Amazon (R).Ben Lee grew up in Bondi in the 1980s when it was a place of bikie gangs, Yiddish-speaking grandmas and tribes of kids living next to one of the world's most beautiful beaches. He was educated at a local Jewish school where he confounded his Rabbi by asking some surprising questions about Moses.Ben was always a seeker, and even as a boy, he also possessed a whole lot of chutzpah.At the age of 14 he saw Nirvana play at the Big Day Out. The next day he started his own band and just two years later Ben was flying to America to support Sonic Youth.After many wild years, Ben emerged with a crucial realisation about his life story.  He is now living back in Australia with his wife Ione and their teenage daughter.This episode of Conversations was produced by Nicola Harrison and the Executive Producer was Carmel Rooney.It explores music, songwriting, drugs, drug taking, ayahuasca, what does ayahuasca feel like, ecstasy, do drugs change your brain, your brain on drugs, your subconscious mind, Claire Danes, how to be famous, what it feels like to be famous, mental health, identity crisis, seasons of life, rock star wife, rock star husband, Evan Dando, Evan Dando drug addiction, Lemonheads, ego, big ego, tall poppy syndrome, catch my disease, gamble everything for love, fame, rock music, singing, Bondi, Noise Addict, Sonic Youth, alternative spirituality, Judaism, Australian music, celebrity, Ione Skye.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Why do we want to hurt the people that hurt us?Over the years we have spoken about so many different aspects of relationships but today’s topic is one we have never fully unpacked before and it’s one of the most destructive forces in relationships: revenge. We don’t always call it that in romantic relationships, but when couples fall into patterns of "getting back at each other", keeping score, or holding long grievances, they’re often trapped in what’s called a “revenge loop;” one that science now shows is addictive and deeply damaging. Today’s guest is James Kimmel. James is a lawyer, Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine and the author of The Science of Revenge. James has done a huge amount of research into how revenge quietly simmers inside all of us and how revenge triggers the brain’s reward system, much like a drug, and some of us might be revenge addicts without even knowing it. Today we chat: James wanting to get revenge on the teenage boys who killed his dog The neuroscience of revenge & how it can be addictive Could this ever be used as a ‘defence’ in court? Why we want the people who hurt us to hurt Justice v revenge How Hollywood has relied on revenge plot narratives How women and men experience empathy differently How forgiveness can rewire our brains You can find more from James Kimmel at his website You can get a copy of The Science of Revenge You can watch us on Youtube Find us on Instagram Join us on tiktok Or join the Facebook Discussion Group Tell your mum, tell your dad, tell your dog, tell your friend and share the love because WE LOVE LOVE!

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.

He is the author of several books, including What Is It Like to Be an Addict?: Understanding Substance Abuse. In this episode, we focus on What Is It Like to Be an Addict? 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. We also talk about willing, unwilling, and resigned addicts, and whether addicts are responsible for their own behavior. Finally, we talk about treatments for addiction.--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

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.

In Episode 297, Mark & Steve respond to a heart-felt submission by a porn/sex addict in active recovery. He describes an ongoing situation that is very difficult for his betrayed partner and shows a great deal of genuine concern for her. 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.

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
