Podcasts about hitting rock bottom

In this deeply personal episode, Ryan opens up about his own divorce - how it unfolded, what he learned, and how men can navigate their own journey with strength and integrity. Drawing from experience and thousands of conversations with men, Ryan shares five things NOT to do and five things TO do when facing divorce. He reminds listeners that divorce, while painful, doesn't have to be the end - it can be the start of rebuilding your life with purpose, clarity, and resilience. Key Takeaways Five Don'ts:  - Don't sedate yourself - Avoid alcohol, porn, or distractions that numb growth.  - Don't stalk your ex - Cut off emotional dependence and focus forward.  - Don't sleep around - Don't use others to fill emotional voids.  - Don't seek vengeance or self-harm - You're needed, and life can get better.  - Don't watch porn - It distorts intimacy and respect for women. Five Do's:  - Build male friendships - Brotherhood is essential for healing and accountability.  - Develop new skills - Strengthen your financial and professional foundation.  - Learn a new hobby - Rediscover fun, joy, and adventure.  - Train your body - Rebuild strength, confidence, and vitality.  - Give back - Serving others heals your own pain.

110. How to Rethink Drinking Without "Hitting Rock Bottom"What if your relationship with alcohol doesn't require a dramatic rock-bottom moment to change? In this episode of SetSet, I sit down with sobriety coach Martha Wright, who went from building a life around wine—professionally and personally—to questioning its role in her daily rituals. Just as I did with cannabis. Together, Martha and I explore what it means to be a “gray area drinker,” how midlife hormonal shifts impact our cravings and consumption, and how reframing our beliefs about alcohol can free us from it—without shame or labels. This conversation is rich in neuroscience, compassion, and personal insight, offering a fresh and empowering approach to alcohol use.

There may have been a time or two in our lives we felt like we hit rock bottom.  What do we do when we hit rock bottom?  There is always hope because as Jesus prayed for Peter that his faith would not fail him, Jesus has prayed for us.  Peter may have faltered, but his faith did not fail him.  There is a sifting we all will go through but we must seek the Lord during that sifting.

In this episode of Recovery Matters, TJ sits down with Matt, a young person in recovery who now works as a Young People and Family Services Coordinator with CCAR. Matt opens up about his journey, beginning with his first treatment at just 13 years old. Despite having parents in recovery, he struggled deeply with drugs, arrests, and time in the juvenile justice system. He shares the progression of his addiction—weed and pills leading to heroin, crack, and near-fatal lows including homelessness, suicidal thoughts, and severe health complications. A turning point came when he entered detox and long-term treatment programs, where structure and community support helped him rebuild his life. Matt also talks about relapse, rebuilding quickly, and how building a strong network of sober friends became crucial to his recovery. His story highlights both the tragedy of losing friends to overdose and the joy of discovering a fulfilling sober life—travel, motorcycles, relationships, and most importantly, fatherhood. Becoming a dad gave Matt a new sense of purpose, grounding his recovery in love and responsibility.  00:00 – Introductions00:36 – First Treatment at 1305:00 – Escalating Addiction07:00 – First Arrests & Juvenile Justice08:00 – Hitting Rock Bottom at 1810:00 – Sober House & Overdose Scare13:00 – Relapse After Heartbreak15:00 – Waterbury & Heavy Addiction17:30 – Final Turning Point19:00 – Structured Recovery & Torrington Move22:00 – Slip & Quick Return to Recovery23:00 – Building a New Life25:00 – Meeting His Fiancée & Becoming a Father29:00 – Parenthood in Recovery34:00 – Advice for Newcomers ----Across the Web----

In this powerful and thought-provoking conversation, meditation teacher and author Billy Winn shares his journey from heavy drinking to finding peace and fulfillment through Zen Buddhist practice. Billy talks about the pivotal moment that led him to stop drinking, the lessons he learned from opening (and later closing) an alcohol-free bar, and the transformative power of meditation in rewiring the brain. He opens up about childhood adversity, workaholism, burnout, and how he ultimately found freedom by realizing he was already enough—without needing to do more or be more.  We also discuss his new book The Empty Path: Finding Fulfillment Through the Radical Art of Lessening and his work shaping psychedelic-assisted therapy policy in Colorado. This is a must-listen for anyone curious about sobriety, mindfulness, or how to find peace in a busy world. Before we jump in, I wanted to let you know I am about to publish the second episode of “Sobriety Reset” which will be focused on what I think are the 3 phases of recovery, and this is after 31 years of personal research and experience. I'm going to cover everything from how to rebuild self-esteem and why that's important, how to identify the root causes that may compel you to drink, and of course, emotion management to make sobriety stick.

Joseph Schultze's life looked nothing like the path that would eventually lead him toward prison. Growing up in Binghamton, New York, he had a loving home — but also parents battling cocaine addiction. Forced to take care of them while still a teenager, Joseph dropped out of high school and developed crippling anxiety. A car accident became the turning point that pulled him into painkillers, harder drugs, and a spiral of crime that racked up multiple larceny charges. Facing years behind bars, Joseph took a chance on New York's infamous shock program — a grueling alternative to prison designed to break inmates down physically and mentally. #AddictionRecovery #PrisonStories #ShockProgram #OvercomingAddiction #TrueCrimePodcast #AddictionAwareness #LifeAfterPrison #RecoveryJourney Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Get 50% off the Magic Mind offer here: https://www.magicmind.com/IANB50. #magicmind #mentalwealth #mentalperformance Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction & Early Addiction 00:50 Meet Joe: Hometown and Upbringing 02:00 Parents' Punk Rock Past & Family Struggles 04:04 Childhood Stories 07:00 Parents' Arrest 09:45 Family History & Normalcy Amidst Chaos 12:26 Dreams for the Future & Sports 13:51 Struggles in School and Dropping Out 14:44 Hitting Rock Bottom in High School 17:17 The GED, New School, and Finding Purpose 18:35 Early Jobs & Anxiety Takes Over 19:37 Battling Severe Anxiety and Isolation 21:18 Emerging from Anxiety 22:26 Family Crises and New Responsibilities 23:54 Balancing Business, Love, and Parental Care 27:32 Becoming a Parent: Breaking the Cycle? 32:30 The Accident That Changed Everything 36:56 Raising a Daughter 40:40 Understanding His Parents 42:58 Losing Prescription Access 45:39 Descent Into Heroin and Selling Possessions 47:59 From Using to Dealing & Living the Fast Life 52:40 Boosting: Shoplifting to Survive 57:07 Life of Boosting: Escalation and Arrests 01:04:04 Legal Trouble: Juggling Charges and Addiction 01:11:49 The Downward Spiral: High-Speed Chases & More Crime 01:18:19 Identity Theft & First Long Jail Stint 01:26:32 Jail, Withdrawal, and Hitting Bottom 01:36:08 Back to the Streets: Meth, Cars & Escalation 01:42:17 Caught Again: The End of Bonnie & Clyde 01:44:55 State Time: Programs & Military Boot Camp 01:56:41 Shock Program: Getting Broken Down to Build Up 02:08:08 Completing Shock & The Path to Recovery 02:13:13 Staying Sober, Rebuilding Life & Family 02:20:00 Lessons Learned & Final Thoughts 02:25:52 Outro & Gratitude Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

A rock bottom moment isn't required to get sober, although it obviously helps. We have no control over what will be our rock bottom, and often we stack consequences for a long time before enough is finally enough. In this episode I discuss what to do if you haven't had a rock bottom yet. You'll learn about 3 key things I've noticed that dabblers do that prevent them from getting sober for good, and what I would suggest doing if you haven't hit your enough point yet.

Sometimes storms hit our life, perhaps some we've created and we hit rock bottom - the lowest point in our life. All hope is gone with no way to recover and move on. But paradoxically, hitting rock bottom can be a catalyst for the need for radical change. When we turn our life over to the grace of God, we will find His power that pulls us up & gives us new purpose.

Ocean Eagle: Embracing Our Traumas Through Breathwork | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this riveting episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, Ocean Eagle, a recovery advocate, author, and breathwork facilitator, shares his profound journey from a traumatic childhood to over 25 years of sobriety and spiritual awakening. Born in Palo Alto and raised across California and Texas amidst the chaos of alcoholic parents, Ocean survived a violent upbringing marked by his father's abuse and the loss of his brother to a tragic car accident at 22. After totaling four cars and earning three DUIs by age 25, Ocean hit rock bottom, triggered by a confrontation with his father's disapproval during a quadruple bypass recovery. This pivotal moment led him to Alcoholics Anonymous in Burbank, where a heartfelt embrace from a stranger sparked his commitment to sobriety at 30. Now 56, Ocean has transformed his pain into purpose, having facilitated 16 women's and veterans' retreats, authored seven books, including The Gift of Desperation, and developed a powerful breathwork practice to help others heal trauma.

In this special Pride Week episode, I sit down with broadcaster Rich Clarke for a deeply personal conversation about identity, authenticity, and the toll of hiding in plain sight. Rich shares his journey of navigating a high-profile media career while carrying a secret identity, and how years of masking his true sexuality led to burnout, breakdown, and ultimately, a turning point.We explore what it really means to come out — not just to the world, but to ourselves — and how the weight of shame, fear, and societal expectation can shape (and limit) our lives. From therapy and sobriety to standing on stage at Brighton Pride and finally saying, “I'm gay,” Rich reflects on what healing has looked like for him, and why connection, honesty, and self-compassion are essential to moving forward.Find Rich Clarke:Instagram: @therichclarkeListen to This Was Always Me Podcast: https://www.globalplayer.com/podcasts/42L3VY/Stay Connected with Hurt to Healing:Instagram: instagram.com/hurttohealingpodTikTok: tiktok.com/@hurttohealingpodLinkedIn: linkedin.com/company/hurt-to-healingSubstack: substack.com/@hurttohealingWebsite: hurttohealing.co.ukIf you're struggling, consider therapy with our paid partner.

Life Lessons from Hitting Rock Bottom | Summer of Psalms This message from Psalm 51 takes us through David's rock bottom moment and shows how God responds to confession, honesty, and a heart ready for change. We explore five lessons from David's life that point us toward hope, healing, and renewed purpose.If you've ever wondered whether God still wants to use you after failure, the answer is yes. Key Insights: 1. Healing always starts with God's mercy, not our effort. 2. True restoration begins with owning our sin instead of hiding or justifying it. 3. Sin is first and foremost against God—even before it affects others. 4. Forgiveness is real, but some consequences of sin still shape our journey. 5. God doesn't just restore us—He still chooses to use us after failure.

Dr. Sina McCullough possessed every credential that should have saved her—PhD in nutrition, functional medicine training, master herbalist certification. Instead, she was dying. Too weak to hold a cup. Watching her children from the floor because she couldn't stand. When twenty specialists across two decades dismissed her suffering as "all in your head," this elite-trained scientist made a desperate plea that shattered everything. What happened next defies every principle of conventional healing.Today, Dr. McCullough is a disease reversal expert, author of Hands Off My Food and Beyond Labels, co-host of the Beyond Labels Podcast, creator of the Go Wild healing program, and health columnist for the Epoch Times.

Welcome back to the Stand Up Dude Podcast! In this gripping episode, your hosts Tim Bisagno and Stewart White have a raw, real, and hope-filled conversation with Michael Molthan—formerly one of the nation's top luxury home builders, now a passionate recovery advocate, faith-filled motivator, and host of the M2 The Rock show. Men, if you've ever hit rock bottom, battled addiction, struggled with hidden pain, or felt like you're trying to climb out of a pit you can't escape—this is YOUR episode. Michael gets honest about his journey from childhood trauma and high-flying career success, to 27 arrests, homelessness, and ultimately, a prison cell where his life was radically changed by the grace of Jesus Christ. If you're a man who's tired of quick fixes, religious clichés, or just going through the motions, we invite you to hear how redefining “rock bottom” led Michael—and can lead you—to the true foundation: relationship with Christ and becoming the man you're made to be.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.

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 best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service. Helping you plan and implement strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life. Retired Navy SEAL Lieutenant Guy McDermott's conversation in episode 191 on the Transition Drill Podcast is a profound exploration of trauma, resilience, and transformation—from surviving an unstable childhood to becoming a leader in one of the world's most elite military units. After 24 years, McDermott transitioned from SEAL officer, into a post-military career as a firefighter and paramedic, he began to confront the suppressed emotional damage left unchecked for decades. That inner conflict, exacerbated by witnessing veteran suicide and his own growing anxiety, led him to the brink of taking his life. Through programs like Save A Warrior, and his current work with Next Peak and Project Restore Hope, McDermott has redefined the meaning of service. His story is a powerful reminder that military transition isn't just about finding military veteran jobs or navigating life after service—it's about healing, identity, and learning how to lead from the heart. His journey offers not just inspiration but a call to action for military veterans and first responders who are ready to stop surviving and start living with purpose, connection, and freedom.
