We had a good conversation and it was a great reading.We had a nice comment from a follower and a new listener, plus he sent a cool reel where he tattooed an orange with our logo.

Send us a textHave you ever found yourself staring into a mirror that refuses to lie to you? That's exactly what the Fourth Step of recovery feels like. When I first heard those words—"made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves"—I knew it would be difficult. What I didn't anticipate was how completely it would transform my understanding of myself and my relationships.The Fourth Step shattered my victim mentality. After a devastating breakup, I finally faced the painful truth that had been hiding in plain sight: I was textbook codependent. Rather than honest communication, I'd built relationships around people-pleasing, manipulation, and control. I thought I was doing things for others, but I was really seeking approval and making other people my Higher Power. The realization cut deep—not only had I lost a relationship, but I'd lost my center, drifted from my program, and abandoned the principles that had saved my life.This powerful inventory process revealed how I'd been the same person in every relationship, wondering why they all ended the same way. I'd accumulated silent resentments by not speaking up about my needs or setting boundaries. I'd blamed others when I was really responsible for my own happiness and wellbeing. The Fourth Step isn't just about listing your flaws—it's about taking ownership of your story and stopping the cycle of blame that keeps you stuck. It's a reset button, a tool for ongoing growth that becomes more valuable each time you return to it with greater honesty.Whether you're in recovery or simply seeking personal growth, this episode offers insights into how unspoken boundaries create resentments, how fear of disapproval prevents authentic communication, and how taking responsibility transforms relationships from the inside out. Recovery isn't just about sobriety—it's about becoming the person you were always meant to be. I wouldn't trade the painful lessons of the Fourth Step for anything, because they've allowed me to finally live an authentic life. If you're struggling with relationships or feeling stuck in old patterns, this might be exactly what you need to hear today. Subscribe and share this episode with someone who needs these insights as much as I once did.

There were huffing deer, the pink cloud, the fellowship (are we involved enough), peace and serenity, when we were out of control, shortcomings versus good qualities, angry feelings and a little bit about Step 4.Also, Elon Musk had an issue with his AI bot and yes, we talked about Fruit And Feelings.Enjoy the episode.Visit usPodcast  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sobernotmature.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Store  ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sobernotmatureshop.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Hobo ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.themoderndayhobo.com

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.

The Mask and the Mirror: Seeing Yourself Clearly After Betrayal In this raw and revealing conversation, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaels explore what happens when betrayal, addiction, secrecy, or early trauma fracture your sense of identity. Whether you're a betrayed partner or someone who has acted out, this episode is an invitation to step out from behind the mask and face the mirror—to look honestly and compassionately at who you are, how you've been shaped, and who you're becoming. Together, Dr. Skinner and MaryAnn unpack how false identities are built from shame, secrecy, survival roles, or social expectations—and how reclaiming your identity starts by connecting with your core worth. They explore how trauma disrupts identity formation, why authenticity is essential for intimacy, and how rediscovering your core self is key to lasting healing. You'll hear personal stories, including a moment of vulnerability from MaryAnn about holding a sign that read “Porn hurt me,” and reflections on what it means to be seen, valued, and known—without hiding. Whether you feel lost in who you've become or you're just beginning to rediscover who you really are, this episode is a guidepost to help you move forward with clarity, courage, and compassion. Topics Covered: Identity loss after secrecy, betrayal, or compulsive behaviors How early trauma and sexual exposure can disrupt self-identity The difference between false self and authentic self Why intimacy requires honesty and congruence Coupleship identity before and after betrayal Core beliefs like “I'm not enough” and their influence on behavior The role of neuroplasticity in healing identity (Joe Dispenza) Internal Family Systems (IFS) and the concept of core self The challenge of letting go of survival-based roles or secondary gains How to begin reclaiming and rewriting your identity A practical reflection exercise to uncover who you are today Resources Mentioned: Joe Dispenza – On autopilot living and the science of change Quote referenced: “90 to 95% of what we do is on autopilot.” Key concept: neuroplasticity and habit stacking in identity transformation Brené Brown – On shame, secrecy, and vulnerability Quote: “Shame thrives in secrecy, silence, and judgment.” Internal Family Systems (IFS) – Exploring the parts of self Discussion of “core self” vs. protective parts shaped by trauma Barna Research (2016) – On changing cultural attitudes toward pornography Mentioned study: Teens reported it was more morally wrong to not recycle than to watch porn Patrick Carnes, Don't Call It Love Cited research on identity shifts post-recovery Key insight: Sober individuals often look back on their past selves with disdain due to identity incongruence Reflection Assignment: Title: "The Mask and the Mirror" Draw or describe two masks: The mask you show the world The mask you wear internally If you're spiritually inclined, consider a third: How does your Higher Power see you? Journal Prompt: Who am I without secrecy or shame? What is one belief I've carried about myself that no longer serves me? If I fully embraced my worth, how would I see myself differently? Bonus Question: How did betrayal or secrecy shift my identity—and how do I want to reclaim it? To learn more about healing and recovery, please visit www.humanintimacy.com

On the 129th episode of the What is a Good Life? podcast, I'm delighted to welcome our guest, Neale Donald Walsch. Neale has written 40 books on contemporary spirituality and its practical application in everyday life, including his new book GodTalk: Experiences of Humanity's Connections with a Higher Power. Neale is the bestselling author of the Conversations with God series, of which seven of the nine books made the New York Times bestseller list. Book One remained on that list for 134 weeks. His titles have been translated into 37 languages and have been read by millions of people around the world.In this conversation, Neale discusses his journey in exploring humanity's relationship with God, emphasising that neither God nor love is transactional. He also shares the experiences that led to his first bestselling book and the life mission that emerged from those dialogues.This conversation invites us to engage with life in a way that contrasts with many cultural norms—by embracing love, deep understanding, and meaningful connection with others.For more of Neale's work, check out the following:Website: http://www.nealedonaldwalsch.com/Books: http://www.nealedonaldwalsch.com/Store/BooksContact me at mark@whatisagood.life if you'd like to explore your own lines of self-inquiry through 1-on-1 coaching, my 5-week group courses, or to discuss experiences I create to stimulate greater trust, communication, and connection, amongst your leadership teams.- For the What is a Good Life? podcast's YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/@whatisagoodlife/videos- My newsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/- My LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/- Exploring one-on-one coaching: https://www.whatisagood.life/p/one-on-one-coaching- What is a Good Life?

Note from Jeannine: So, this is a pretty big one for me. In 2020, while my studio was closed, I started manically listening to various podcasts every day looking for motivation and insight. One morning while sitting on the floor of our strength room, I heard the story of The Coffee Bean, as told through Clemson coach, Dabo Sweeney. The origins of that story begin in a jail cell in Texas - with today's guest. Interviewing him and telling him the impact his story had on me was a very cool experience and a reminder to me that my Higher Power is always working in my life...even when I can't see it. Special thank you to Dave from Dopey for connecting me with Damon. Enjoy!Episode description:Today Jeannine interviews Damon West, M.S. Criminal Justice. Damon is a college professor, internationally known keynote speaker and 3 x Wall Street Journal bestselling author. His bestselling business book, The Coffee Bean: A Simple Lesson to Create Positive Change, was listed by Forbes' in the “Top Twenty Books You Need to Read to Crush 2020.”His autobiography, The Change Agent: How a Former College QB Sentenced to Life in Prison Transformed His World, vividly tells how he transformed the pot of boiling water that is a Texas maximum-security prison into a pot of coffee.At 20 years old, he was a Division 1 starting quarterback at the University of North Texas, when he suffered a career ending injury. He turned to hardcore drugs to cope with disappointments of life. After graduation, he worked in the United States Congress, was a national fundraiser on a U.S. Presidential campaign and eventually trained to be a stockbroker for United Bank of Switzerland (UBS). One day at UBS, he was introduced to methamphetamines; he became instantly hooked—and the lives of so many innocent people would forever be changed by the choices he made in order to feed his insatiable meth habit.After a fateful discussion during his incarceration with a seasoned convict, Damon had a spiritual awakening. He learned that, like a coffee bean changing with the application of heat and pressure, he was capable of changing the environment around him. Armed with a program of recovery, a renewed faith, and a miraculous second chance at life, Damon emerged from over seven years of prison a changed man. His story of redemption, grit and determination continues to inspire audiences today.Damon shares his story of how his first use of meth escalated into homelessness in 18 months, including all manner of tweaker hijinks, including a mail man hustle and stealing a car from the Texas Rangers police impound. We talk recovery, resentments, rebuilding after incarceration and never letting dreams die.
