Podcasts about overcoming addiction

Victor Reynolds shares his powerful recovery journey on the Recovery Matters Podcast. Raised in an environment of violence and addiction, he was taught to be heartless from a young age. By nine, he was on the streets, caught up in crime, substances, and chaos. Years of dust, drinking, robberies, and prison time left him broken, but also searching for meaning.His turning point came when he faced federal charges and later battled congestive heart failure while incarcerated. After multiple near-death experiences and what he describes as a divine encounter with an “angel,” Victor embraced faith and recovery. Today, he lives with humility, gratitude, and a mission to help others who are still struggling. His story is one of transformation, hope, and the belief in second chances.00:00 – Introduction: TJ & Victor00:21 – Growing up without emotions00:44 – Father's influence & gangster lifestyle01:18 – Early street life & family struggles02:17 – First substances: dust & drinking02:43 – Crime, stickups, and first arrest03:30 – Denial of addiction problems04:00 – Prison life & getting high inside05:00 – Feeling invincible on substances06:05 – Father's Day with his sons – breaking moment07:21 – Facing federal charges & prison time08:10 – Congestive heart failure diagnosis09:49 – Near-death experiences & survival13:11 – Belief in God's protection & a new heart15:02 – The mysterious Dr. Kennedy encounter18:25 – Faith, recovery, and humility19:00 – Advice for people in their first 24 hours of recovery ----Across the Web----

Today, Nancy Sabato sits down with Sherry Hoppen for a raw conversation about the hidden battles of addiction and the true meaning of **surrender**. Sherry shares how her struggle with alcoholism intertwined with life as a Christian leader—her turning point during a thousand-mile bike trip, the collapse afterward, and the deep shame that fueled her secrecy.

The audience will have their deepest questions answered: “Is there hope for me?”, “Can God really set me free?”, and “How do I stop hiding?”  Watch to discover how surrender unlocks God's healing and why no one has to battle addiction alone. - Surrender in addiction recovery #SurrenderStory- Sherry Hoppen testimony #SherryHoppen- Faith-based healing #FaithAndFreedom- Overcoming secret struggles #AuthenticRecovery- Christian women breaking addiction #WomenOfFaithDon't forget to like, subscribe, and share for more Christ-centered conversations.

Timothy was a lazy, phony Christian, cheating husband, absent father and porn addict. Timothy said yes to Jesus at a young age but walked away from a faith with shallow roots. He searched for meaning in life everywhere but God. He self-medicated and covered up who he really was, until he realized he couldn't stop his fake life on his own. “ I know this is wrong. I don't want to do this. I don't want to be hurting myself, hurting my wife, hurting my family, but I couldn't overcome it because of that sin that lived within me. It took repenting and laying those burdens down at the foot of Jesus at the cross.”  God would take him through change with Timothy kicking and screaming all the way. He now uses his own experience to lead other men overcome their addictions, save their marriages, and become better, stronger, Godly men. Helpful Links:Timothy's BlogTimothy's Book, Men of Grit: Into the WildernessTimothy's Book, Living Porn Free Help for Men Trapped in Porn AddictionFocus on the Family sexual brokenness resourcesThe Freedom FightXXXChurch, helps you overcome pornLet us know what you thought of the show!Follow One80 on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or our website.Never miss a One80.

Send us a textHave you ever caught yourself mindlessly scrolling your phone, finishing an entire bag of chips without noticing, or having "just one more" drink that turned into several? You're not alone, and it's not entirely your fault.Our brains are wired for reward, and modern life is designed to exploit this vulnerability. Whether it's sugar, alcohol, social media, or any quick-hit pleasure, they all trigger the same dopamine pathways – creating cycles of anticipation, temporary satisfaction, inevitable crash, and renewed craving. This podcast explores how these patterns silently shape our lives, one small choice at a time, until we find ourselves trapped in behaviors we never consciously chose.But breaking free is possible. True recovery goes beyond simple abstinence to address the underlying reasons we reach for these escapes in the first place. What pain are you numbing? What void are you trying to fill? Through establishing daily non-negotiables – consistent practices that ground your day and create a framework for healthier choices – you can begin rewiring your brain's reward system. Physical movement, nutritious eating, mindful consumption of information, and regular connection with supportive communities gradually restore natural dopamine balance, making it easier to find satisfaction in meaningful activities rather than quick fixes.Most importantly, this journey thrives in community, not isolation. "Addiction thrives when it's alone. Recovery thrives in connection." By keeping promises to yourself and building integrity through small daily choices, you create a life where artificial highs feel unnecessary compared to the deeper satisfaction of living authentically. The question becomes not "How do I avoid my addiction?" but "How do I build a life I don't want to escape from?" Listen in to discover how you can transform recovery from a series of deprivations into a journey of creation – crafting a life that truly satisfies your deepest needs.Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify if this episode resonated with you.

natural & regenerative musculoskeletal healing: https://www.georgekramermd.com/Episode Highlights[00:36] Freedom from Addiction and the Fight for the SoulAddiction, anxiety, and spiritual warfare can make people feel trapped and unseen.Many silently battle overwhelming darkness, believing healing is out of reach.Tommy Doyle, International Director of Uncharted Ministries, knows this struggle firsthand.[03:21] Tommy: “We have so many good friends and so many ministry partners over there, that that's just really where our heart was, and we were part of another ministry before that that we loved dearly, so many great people and everything.”Once bound by addiction and anxiety, Tommy now leads missions that bring healing and hope across the Middle East.[05:26] Ministry Work in the Middle EastTommy describes Uncharted Ministries' work across war-torn regions of the Middle East.He recalls visiting the Gaza Strip a month after a major attack, wearing flak jackets and traveling with armed EMTs.Despite the chaos, they shared comfort and reminded hurting communities that they are not forgotten.Through every mission, Tommy emphasizes the power of showing up and bringing the love of Christ.[12:19] Personal Testimony and Early LifeTommy grew up in a large Christian family, deeply involved in church life as a pastor's kid.Despite strong early faith, he experienced rejection and betrayal from peers in church leadership.That emotional wound led him to pull away and seek belonging in sports and party culture.This shift laid the groundwork for his eventual descent into substance use and spiritual drift.[24:23] Struggles with Addiction and Turning PointTommy began justifying casual partying, which escalated into drug dealing and daily alcohol use.A raid by federal agents became a wake-up call, but the pull of addiction remained strong.Panic attacks worsened his condition, and alcohol became his go-to form of self-medication.Despite several attempts to quit, nothing brought lasting freedom—until he cried out to God.[26:42] Egypt Mission Trip and Spiritual AwakeningTommy joined a mission trip to Egypt to support his mother's outreach to Muslim women.While caring for children there, he was struck by a deep conviction to return to a life of purpose.That moment reignited his faith, shifted his focus, and set him on a path of full sobriety.He returned home and committed to healing through a Christ-centered Celebrate Recovery program.[36:11] Supernatural Encounter in EgyptDuring a foot-washing ceremony, Tommy witnessed a woman visibly possessed and delivered through the name of Jesus.[39:47] Tommy: “Every time that something dark and scary would happen, witnessed by other people too, the power of the name of Jesus was enough to eradicate it and, and that's just so life-giving.”Later that night, he and his brother encountered a terrifying demonic presence outside their desert compound.Prayer in Jesus' name broke the oppression, revealing that when the demonic and divine encounter each other, the authority of Christ prevails over darkness.These spiritual battles confirmed the reality of unseen warfare—and the power believers carry.[47:49] Territorial Spirits and the Battle Over RegionsTommy and Reagan reflect on how demonic strongholds operate not just personally, but over entire regions.In spiritually charged areas like the Middle East, the Enemy fiercely resists gospel work.Tommy shares how even Bible translation efforts in unreached areas face constant spiritual interference.Yet through it all, God's power continues to break ground where darkness has long ruled.[52:45] The Link Between Medication and AddictionTommy discusses the role anti-anxiety medication played in intensifying his alcohol cravings.He noticed his dependence on alcohol spiked after starting an SSRI prescribed for panic attacks.This connection led him to research and ultimately discontinue the medication after his spiritual breakthrough.He encourages others to evaluate their health journeys prayerfully and seek Spirit-led guidance.[58:39] Advice for Overcoming Addiction and AnxietyTommy urges listeners to admit powerlessness and seek a divine encounter with Jesus as the first step to healing.By trusting Him, we take a faithful path to healing.He shares practical advice for managing anxiety, including diet, outdoor activity, and community support.Accountability and honesty are key—especially with trusted friends and family.Above all, he emphasizes that true freedom from addiction and fear comes through Christ alone.[1:03:43] Tommy: “I did not need a foreign substance to be happy and enjoy life. And that's such a lie if, if that's holding you back, reconnect with the Lord.”[1:05:52] Living Free From Darkness to Purpose in ChristTommy reminds listeners that surrender is not weakness but the beginning of real strength.He shares how 2 Timothy 1:7 has anchored him through fear and addiction.God's healing is available to anyone ready to leave darkness and walk into His light.Learn more about Tommy's work through Uncharted Ministries and Uncharted Adventures at unchartedministries.com.About Tommy DoyleTommy Doyle is a missionary leader, speaker, and redeemed overcomer called to bring light into the darkest places.

Stephen Matos, a person in long-term recovery, joins TJ on the Recovery Matters podcast to share his incredible journey since his last use of drugs and alcohol in 1986 and his last gambling experience in 1987. Stephen opens up about his upbringing in Hartford, Connecticut, where his father was deeply entrenched in gambling activities. He recounts how his own descent into alcohol, drugs, and gambling almost destroyed his life, leading to broken relationships and financial ruin. However, recovery came through Gamblers Anonymous, Alcoholics Anonymous, and intensive outpatient programs. Stephen highlights his role as a peer counselor in Connecticut's exemplary problem gambling treatment programs, underscoring the importance of lived experience in offering hope and support to others. His narrative also sheds light on the stigma surrounding gambling addiction and the critical need for comprehensive treatment and recovery resources.00:00 Introduction and Host Backgrounds00:36 Growing Up with a Gambling Father04:51 Early Exposure to Alcohol and Drugs06:59 The Impact of Gambling on Relationships09:58 Descent into Addiction16:15 Turning Point and Seeking Help18:30 Recovery Journey and Support Systems21:51 The Journey of Recovery21:58 Managing Money and Responsibilities22:24 The Role of AA and GA in Recovery22:48 Strained Relationship with Father23:24 Making Amends and Financial Accountability23:52 Mending the Relationship with Father24:27 A New Chapter: Becoming a Peer Counselor25:06 Training and Embracing Multiple Pathways of Recovery25:58 Working with Problem Gamblers and Their Families27:58 Connecticut's Leading Gambling Treatment Programs29:37 The Importance of Lived Experience in Recovery33:03 Helpline and Support Resources35:20 Advice for Newcomers in Recovery36:48 Addressing Stigma and Shame in Gambling Addiction41:05 Concluding Thoughts and Gratitude  ----Across the Web----

In this inspiring episode, George Halford sits down with Zach Gant—a native of Hilham, TN whose early life spiraled into sports, crime, and addiction, landing him behind bars three times by age 18 and labeled the county's second‑largest drug dealer. Zach shares the crushing toll of his substance abuse and addiction on his mind and relationships, revealing how a SWAT raid became the wake‑up call that led him to get clean, earn his GED, and graduate college with a perfect 4.0. Inspired by his father's work as a respiratory therapist and driven by his newfound faith, he launched his own business. But the battle wasn't over—Zach opens up about how pride, an ADD diagnosis, and five years hiding a cocaine habit nearly destroyed his marriage before faith and honesty helped them heal and guided him into his calling to preach and later founded a church and- which guided him to open his "Struggle Bus" Food Truck.

Send us a textAfter years of chasing external definitions of success, I've completely transformed the Successful Life Podcast to focus on what truly matters: recovery from addiction, freedom from limiting habits, and authentic personal growth. This isn't about how much we can achieve or how much money we make—it's about waking up clear-headed, staying emotionally regulated, and building a life of integrity.My own journey has been marked by struggles with addiction, wearing different masks for different people, and pretending everything was fine when it wasn't. Though I quit drinking nearly 16 years ago, I switched to cannabis until March 2023. Today, two years fully sober, I've discovered practices that genuinely move the needle in my life: rising at 3:45 am when my brain functions optimally, daily gym sessions, ice baths that reset my nervous system, and a carnivore diet that's dramatically improved my mental clarity and physical health.The carnivore approach—eating only meat, eggs, and cheese—has transformed my energy, eliminated my need for ADHD medication, and helped me shed 12 pounds to reach 8% body fat. But the physical benefits pale compared to the mental clarity and emotional stability I've gained. When combined with recovery principles and consistent self-discipline, this lifestyle has allowed me to show up authentically for myself, my family, and my team at work.If you're struggling with addiction, poor habits, or feeling lost, know that transformation is possible. As they say in recovery, "You don't walk ten miles into the woods and get out in two"—healing takes time, but it begins with a single step today. Join me weekly as we explore what truly creates a successful life with upcoming guests including bodybuilder Tony Freeman and Jared the Plumber.

Ben Kaye shares his powerful story of recovery after years caught in the world of chemsex—a term used to describe using drugs like crystal meth, GBL, and mephedrone to enhance sex, lower inhibitions, and feel more connected during sexual encounters, especially within the LGBTQ+ community. What started as weekend partying turned into daily drug use and emotional isolation. Ben opens up about how trauma, loneliness, and the search for love led him to addiction, including injecting meth to feel a sense of control and connection. In this honest and eye-opening conversation, Ben explains how chemsex became his way of coping, and how treatment, community, and time helped him rebuild his life. Now a therapist, he helps others find healing too. 00:00 – Intro: Meet Ben Kaye01:05 – An idyllic childhood shattered at 1502:21 – First experiences with substances04:00 – Moving to London, coming out, and the party scene05:30 – Why the party lifestyle became so appealing07:00 – Functioning addict or barely functioning?08:22 – When weekend use turned into daily meth use09:27 – Injecting crystal meth: how it started10:45 – What is Chemsex?

In this compelling episode of The Begin Again Podcast, host Gary Mankey invites motivational speaker and CEO Jay Barnard to share his transformative journey from addiction and trauma to recovery and empowerment.Jay details his struggle with addiction, stemming from deep-seated trauma, and his multiple battles with suicidal thoughts—even years into his recovery. He discusses finding solace and purpose in being a chef, where he created the brand 'Chef Recovery.' Jay's turning point came through a profound personal investment in a relationship coach, which led him to understand that healing required addressing his trauma directly. Now, as the founder of Empower to Recover Foundation, Jay travels Canada hosting events that unite recovery communities by demonstrating that everyone heals differently but that hope and transformation are universally accessible. His honest recounting of his setbacks, including nearly taking his life even after years of sobriety, underscores the importance of self-love, continuous personal development, and the courage to seek and offer help. This episode is a poignant reminder that healing is a lifelong journey where small steps can lead to monumental change.Follow Jay's journey and join the movement:IG: @chefrecoveryjaybarnard

Is your unspoken trauma holding you back from success? Today, I'm so excited to speak with Powerhouse OG, Taylor Wray, the founder of Awakening Sol. Taylor is someone who truly embodies the healing journey in a way that I know will inspire and awaken you—wherever you may be in yours. She opens up about how she went from abusing drugs at just 13-years-old, to her experiences navigating loss in rehab, to now thriving as her fully aligned self. We talk about the impact of trauma on the way we show up in our lives and our businesses, and how patterns developed during our childhood continue well into our adulthood (whether we realize it or not!). Taylor also shares a much-needed destigmatized lens for detaching your identity from the success of your business, unwinding deep, subconscious patterns, and accessing healing in a way that resonates with you.   HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 Meet an OG of Powerhouse Women + the founder of Awakening Sol, Taylor Wray! 04:40 What keeps you going during moments of hardship? 06:05 Where did your path to healing begin? 15:20 The moment that changed the trajectory of Taylor's healing journey. 21:45 What misunderstanding keeps us from fully healing? 24:25 Understanding and processing trauma—without the stigma. 31:35 How patterns developed during childhood show up in our adulthood. 37:10 How do you peel back deep-seeded patterns? 42:00 Ways to grow beyond our conditioning as entrepreneurs. 49:05 Practices for detaching your identity from the success of your business. 52:00 What was the catalyst to reinvest in yourself? 1:02:15 Celebrating Taylor's Powerhouse moment of pushing through fear to launch her teacher training.   RESOURCES + LINKS Learn more at Taylor's website HERE!
