Andrew Humberman BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Andrew Huberman, the Stanford neuroscientist and Huberman Lab podcast kingpin, has been lighting up the health scene with back-to-back moves that could reshape his public profile for years. Just days ago on January 15, Fox News spotlighted him alongside experts like Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel and Dr. Keith Humphreys, dishing on reasonable drinking limits, where Huberman warned that first sips before age 14 spike alcoholism risks and stressed social drinkers face peer pressure for saying no. Fox News reports he called alcohol a magic elixir for some, hard to quit without total fallout. This ties into his bombshell Huberman Lab episode dropped around the same time, How to Overcome Addiction to Substances or Behaviors with Humphreys, unpacking everything from AA's flexibility to psychedelics, cannabis psychosis dangers, and social media traps, per the Huberman Lab site.On January 14, he joined Chris Williamson on Modern Wisdom YouTube, predicting the next supplement boom and brushing off online drama as career-enders for lesser lights, while praising high-quality brands like Momentous.

Pascale's candid sharing of her own struggles with shopping addiction creates a safe space for listeners to examine their own numbing behaviours, whether it's overworking, people-pleasing, or endless scrolling. Table of Contents Shopping for Enoughness: Understanding Addiction's True Nature The Role of Vulnerability in Healing Returning to Peace The Healing Power of Gratitude Conclusion Shopping for Enoughness: Understanding Addiction's True Nature Pascale reveals her personal struggle with shopping addiction in her 20s, buying clothes, shoes, and handbags every week. She explains how this behaviour was never really about the items themselves, but about filling a void and chasing the sense of being enough, worthy, and whole. She encourages listeners to look beneath the surface of their own addictive patterns, whether it's saying yes to everyone else, pouring themselves into work to avoid inner pain, or reaching for food, drink, or distractions when what they truly need is rest and connection. The core message is that addiction is never about the thing - it's about the search for enoughness and external validation when we should be tapping into our authentic internal power. The Role of Vulnerability in Healing Initially viewing vulnerability as weakness, Pascale shares her transformation in understanding vulnerability as the greatest liberator. She explains how addiction thrives in hiding, in keeping up appearances and pretending everything is fine. The breakthrough comes when we allow ourselves to feel - to cry, acknowledge our struggles, and ask for help. This vulnerability breaks the cycle and opens the door to peace, self-acceptance, and love. Every tear shed and moment of honesty becomes a step toward freedom, away from the chains of perfectionism and toward embracing our wholeness. Returning to Peace Pascale contrasts the anxiety, restlessness, and striving that addictions create with the inner stillness that comes from vulnerability. She emphasises that peace doesn't come from external sources - not from one more purchase, achievement, or distraction - but from within. This inner peace comes from sitting quietly with ourselves and remembering our inherent wholeness: "I am whole. I am loved and I am free." The Healing Power of Gratitude Gratitude serves as the final piece of the healing puzzle, shifting focus from what we lack to the fullness of what we already have. When we live in gratitude, the compulsive need to fill voids with addictive behaviours softens. We no longer need to chase "more" because we recognise that what we have and who we are is already enough. Pascale invites listeners to pause, breathe, and reflect on what they're grateful for in the present moment, allowing gratitude to remind them of their wholeness, freedom, and peace. Conclusion The episode concludes with Pascale's gentle reminder that while addiction may manifest differently for each person, the path back to peace remains consistent: through vulnerability, honesty, and gratitude. She challenges listeners to ask themselves, "Where am I numbing myself, and how can I instead choose honesty, peace and gratitude?" The overarching message is one of hope and self-compassion - that we are already enough, and freedom comes from acknowledging our patterns and choosing a different path rooted in authenticity and gratitude. ----------------------- FULL TRANSCRIPT ----------------------- Hello beautiful souls, Welcome back to The Everyday Life Balance Show. I'm Pascale Gibon, and I'm so grateful you're here. Today, I want to speak about something real – addiction. We all have one, whether it's shopping, overworking, chocolate, people-pleasing, or endlessly scrolling on our phones. At its root, addiction is often not about the thing itself. It's about what lies beneath it - the longing to feel enough, safe and soothed. Over the summer, I took some much-needed time to pause and reflect. That space helps me gain clarity on what matters the most. Freedom begins with acknowledging the ways we numb ourselves and bravely choosing another path. Here is my story of addiction, and how I overcame it through vulnerability and gratitude.   Shopping For Enoughness In my 20s, I was what you might call a shopaholic. I was buying clothes, shoes and handbags every week. Shopping became my way of filling the void, chasing the next outfit, the next thrill. Some of you might relate to this. But what I was seeking wasn't in the bag I carried home – it was the sense of being enough, worthy and whole. Perhaps your 'shopping' looks different. Maybe it's saying yes to everyone else and leaving yourself last. Possibly it's pouring yourself into work so you don't have to feel the ache inside. Maybe it's reaching for food, drink, or distraction when what you truly need is rest and connection. When we pause long enough to look beneath the surface, we see that addiction is never about the thing – it's about the search for enoughness. Should you have addiction, whatever it is: ask yourself whether you seek external validation for your 'enoughness' and miss out on your authentic 'enoughness', your internal power, where lie all the answers you seek. Never dismiss your inner power and truth.   The Role of Vulnerability In Healing I used to have an adverse relationship with vulnerability. It was never my friend because I believed it was a sign of weakness. I now think the opposite: showing vulnerability is the greatest liberator, for without it, there's no healing, transformation, or progress. Here's where the power of vulnerability comes in. Addiction thrives in hiding – in keeping up appearances, in pretending we are fine when we are not. However, when we allow ourselves to feel – to cry, to acknowledge our struggles, and to ask for help – we break the cycle. Vulnerability isn't a weakness; it's a strength that sets us free. It opens the door to peace, self-acceptance and love. Every tear shed, every moment of honesty, is a step away from chains of perfectionism and towards the wide-open space of freedom. This is emancipation: releasing the need to pretend and embracing the wholeness of who we are. For further help on the topic of vulnerability, I invite you to listen to episode 295 of the Everyday Life Balance show, entitled: "Embracing Vulnerability Setting Yourself Free." Unveiling our protective armour allows us to unleash our authentic selves.   Returning To Peace Addictions stir up anxiety, restlessness, and striving. But when we step into vulnerability, we also step back into peace – the inner stillness that tells us we are already enough. Peace doesn't come from one more purchase, one more achievement, or one more distraction. It comes from within, from sitting quietly with ourselves and remembering: I am whole. I am loved and I am free.   The Healing Power Of Gratitude Gratitude is the final piece of the puzzle. It shifts our focus away from a lack of something and into fullness. When we live in gratitude, the need to fill a void with addiction softens. We no longer need to chase 'more' because we see that what we have – and who we are – is already enough. Gratitude is a powerful tool that can transform our perspective and bring hope and optimism into our lives. So, today I invite you to pause. Breathe. Reflect on what you are grateful for in this moment. Let that gratitude remind you of your wholeness, freedom and peace.   Thank you, beautiful soul, for sharing this sacred space with me. Addiction may manifest differently for each of us, but the path back to peace remains the same – through vulnerability, honesty, and gratitude.  As you step into this week, I encourage you to ask yourself: Where am I numbing myself, and how can I instead choose honesty, peace and gratitude? Until next time, I'm sending you love, light and the gentle reminder that you are already enough. Stay blessed, free and peaceful.

Send us a textEpisode 274 – Dan Graham, Mindset CoachRewriting Your Story: Dan Graham on Healing the Mind to Overcome AddictionIn this episode, we interview mindset coach Dan Graham for an inspiring conversation about the power of rewriting your internal narrative. Based in the UK, Dan specializes in helping people uncover the subconscious stories that shape their actions and behaviors—often without them realizing it.Dan shares how his own journey through smoking and gambling addictions revealed a profound truth: destructive habits are not the core problem, but rather symptoms of a deeper identity crisis. By becoming aware of—and ultimately reshaping—the false stories he believed about himself, Dan found true freedom. His addictions didn't need to be forcefully “quit” because they naturally lost their grip when his self-perception changed.With warmth and conviction, Dan reminds us that nothing in our past can erase our inherent worth. This episode offers practical insight for anyone struggling with destructive behaviors, and encouragement for those ready to address the root causes rather than just the symptoms. Prepare to be challenged, inspired, and reminded that you are far more valuable than you may believe.Learn more about Dan's work at www.dangrahamcoaching.co.uk.On Instagram:  @dangrahamcoaching Via email: contact@dangrahamcoaching.co.uk Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREEDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

How can we bring mindful awareness to our patterns of subtle dissatisfaction that are also a form of Dukkha? Here, Vimalasara delves into the Buddhist concept of dukkha (suffering), exploring how our habitual reactions to both pleasant and unpleasant experiences can entangle us in cycles of suffering. She emphasizes that dukkha isn't just about overt pain but also includes our resistance to life's impermanence and unpredictability. Vimalasara suggests we can begin to untangle them, fostering a deeper sense of ease and presence in our lives.​Vimalasara outlines practical approaches to work with dukkha:​Mindful Observation: Recognize and observe our reactions to experiences without judgment, allowing us to see the underlying patterns of clinging and aversion.​Embodied Awareness: Engage in practices that connect us to bodily sensations, grounding us in the present moment and helping to dissolve the grip of suffering.​Compassionate Inquiry: Approach our experiences with kindness and curiosity, creating space for healing and transformation.​Through these methods, she encourages a compassionate and embodied path to understanding and alleviating dukkha, leading to greater freedom and well-being.​______________Dr. Vimalasara (Valerie) Mason-John MA (hon. doc) is a senior teacher in the Triratna Buddhist Community. She is the award-winning author of 9 books, including her most recently published in 2020 "I'm Still Your Negro: An Homage to James Baldwin," and is currently editing an anthology "Afrikan Wisdom: Black Liberation, Buddhism, and Beyond" published in 2021. She is also the author of "Detox Your Heart - Meditations for Emotional Trauma," and the award-winning book, "Eight-Step Recovery Using the Buddha's Teachings to Overcome Addiction," with 8-Step meetings in several continents. Named as one of the leading African-descent voices in the field of mindfulness approaches for addiction, she has co-founded the accredited program Mindfulness-Based Addiction Recovery MBAR. She works as a dharma teacher, public speaker, professional trainer, and mindfulness teacher.

Scott Devine joins Casey Scott and Dr. Matt Woolley to talk about his family’s experience moving to America from Ireland to be more active in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, why he found comfort in pursuing rebellious behavior throughout high school, and his decision to attend BYU-Idaho, despite continuously disobeying the Honor Code. Scott also talks about going off the rails and having to spend Christmas and New Year’s Day in a residential facility, his experience with relapsing, and the work he put toward his sobriety that would eventually help him climb out of the hole of addiction.  

Welcome to the podcast!    Today I'll be joined by CEO and Founder Chandler Rogers of the Relay app. He'll be sharing his story of overcoming addiction to pornography and how it led him to create a highly successful sobriety app to help people connect anonymously.   We're going to talk about how we met, and how after I heard about their project, I decided to partner with them so I could connect with you!    I'm always reachable on social media, but not everyone wants to reach out that way. In fact, a lot of people either want to say anonymous or NEED to be anonymous because of work or fear of exposure, or you're not ready to tell your family and friends or whatever…    The point is that we all need a safe place to start, with support, accountability and compassion.   So I'll be hosting a private group, not on social media, totally private, where you can get support from me and others just like you who want to live an alcohol and drug free life.   I'm going to give you some instructions but don't worry if you can't remember everything, I'll put it in the show notes:   You can join my recovery team by signing up here: (https://joinrelay.app/odaat), answer Yes when the signup survey asks "Do you already have a group?", and input the team code ONEDAY. You'll get to try Relay for free + 20% off after the free trial, and you can stay as anonymous as you want. I'm excited to meet you soon!   I'm really excited to share this conversation with you, so without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Chandler, and let me know what you think!   Subscribe So You Don't Miss New Episodes!

He also discusses his road to sobriety, filled with setbacks and steps forward, and how addiction prepared him for the wild ride of entrepreneurship. Chad's story is a testament to the transformative power of self-awareness, determination, and choosing to be present for oneself and others.
