Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of your favorite Trudgers. This week is all about guidelines and safeguards in keeping recovery groups free of any other spiritual or physical affiliation, real or implied. The boys discuss the necessity in having the recovery group's focus on carrying the message with the least amount of outside influences from other organizations or agendas. How the recovery groups can cooperate with anyone but do not align themselves with any particular outside entity. We also have some light-hearted discussion about St Patrick's Day (Greg is in full garb) and if corned beef is overrated or underrated. We finish off the show with some housekeeping items and Corey humorously discusses some of his pet peeves at meetings. “The sick mind cannot heal itself." -unknownDon't forget you can watch extra content surrounding sports and other topics on our Trudge Report YouTube channel. Also, remember to like and subscribe to the channel as well as to the main podcast and on all of your listening platforms. Trudge on.

What sets Michael Molthan - M2 The Rock's story apart is the realization that there wasn't just one rock bottom; there were many. And from those challenging moments, he emerged stronger and more determined than ever. Today, he leverages his personal experiences and magnetic, relatable personality to inspire others to embark on their own transformative journeys. Michael Molthan - M2 The Rock is proof that even in the darkest of times, one can find a path to fulfillment and purpose, using rock bottom as a steppingstone rather than an endpoint. Michael Molthan's mission is to raise the meaning of “Rock Bottom” sharing his relatable stories for everyone by rebuilding the “Spirit, Mind, and Body”. When this is “Out of Order” our life is full of chaos and confusion. Michael Molthan doesn't shy away from talking about his painful past of trauma, drug, alcohol, and work addiction. On his talk show called The M2 The ROCK Show, he interviews inspiring people with inspiring stories. For over 2o years, Michael Molthan has been known as one of the most well-known Luxury Homebuilders in Dallas, Texas - The Park Cities and also in the country until 2009. Michael Molthan finally hit rock bottom. Drugs. Alcohol, and crime. And absolute chaos. He accumulated 27 mugshots in four years and was about to enter a place he swore he would never go: prison. Addiction was Michael's temporary solution to heal from a dark childhood trauma secret. Little did he know that being imprisoned and reading and writing for inmates that could not read or write. On October 13, 2017, Michael was miraculously released 2 years early from prison before completing his sentence. He traveled 300 Miles back to Dallas, Texas, to see Judge Jennifer Bennett to turn himself in. For the first time Judge Bennett could see this miraculous change that had taken place in Michael's life, so she pardoned him and told him to go “pay it forward”. That's what Michael Molthan has been doing for the last 7 years. Michael is the host of The M2 THE ROCK Show, one of the fastest growing shows/podcasts in the country that dives into the topic of self-improvement, spirituality, health, mind, and many more. Michael Molthan is the author of two books, “300 MILES – Memoir of Michael Molthan” and “Today, I Realize - Daily Devotional 2025” being released in 2025. Michael's main passion is simple and profound: “That Everyone Is An Addict”.

This week Coach Blu is solo as he reintroduces the Addicty II Artist program as we relaunch. The Addict II Artist program is a transformative initiative that utilizes the principles of art to support individuals in their journey of mental health and addiction recovery. By fostering creativity, self-expression, and reflection, the program encourages participants to explore their emotions and experiences through various artistic mediums. Art principles such as color theory, composition, and texture are integrated into workshops, helping individuals to channel their struggles into tangible creations. This process not only promotes healing and self-discovery but also builds a sense of community and connection among participants. Ultimately, the Addict II Artist program empowers individuals to redefine their identities, find purpose, and cultivate resilience through the healing power of art.

In this episode, Christina and Terra discuss taboo subjects related to gambling, specifically the temptations of free play and free gifts. They explore the triggers and challenges associated with these incentives and how they can impact individuals in recovery. They also touch on the topic of controlled gambling and why it is not discussed in their support group. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding personal triggers and finding support to navigate through them. It's important to find a recovery approach that works for each individual and the need for open-mindedness and curiosity in navigating the challenges you might face in recovery. **If you are struggling with your mental health or having thoughts of self harm, please seek the help of professionals.

Margie shares her story of beginning a poker machine dependency when her child first went to school. It was a relief from the responsibilities of single parenting and allowed her to forget about life's pressures. Although it didn't interfere with her work or life, gambling on the pokies meant that instead of having a comfortable life she was always working longer, just scraping by, getting into debt and going without for herself and her family.Her recovery started when she admitted the extent of her gambling to her parents, sought help through a counsellor and found support from other gamblers in Gambler's Help. Stopping gambling wasn't easy but with the help of others trying to quit made it easier. Margie went on to help establish a successful Gambling Harm Recovery Group in West Heidelberg that has been running for nearly 6 years.Gambling Harm Recovery Group: at Banyule Community Health, 21 Alamein Street, West Heidelberg. Group meetings are online on Tuesdays at 6:30pm and in-person on Thursdays at 6:30pm.

This transformative incident ultimately led him to establish the Odom Recovery Group, an organization dedicated to offering substance abuse treatment and wellness programs for individuals seeking support.
Dr. Robb's passion and energy for recovery is undeniable, and his refusal to sugar coat his thoughts on what alcoholics and addicts must deal with to recover is refreshing while in your face. The depths of his own battle with alcohol will shock and sadden you. His flexing, both literally and figuratively, on what he has uncovered and accomplished will at least make you think, at most make some changes. Dr. Robb Kelly's treatment center has a 97% success rate...97%! You may or may not agree with everything you hear from Robb, but you must be willing to listen, then decide. https://robbkelly.com/https://theneuroheroconference.com/https://instagram.com/neurohero2023?igshid=MzNlNGNkZWQ4Mg==https://m.facebook.com/groups/1027987721911526/?ref=share&mibextid=NSMWBThttps://www.linkedin.com/in/the-neuro-hero-conference-90a7b0284https://twitter.com/neuro_hero
Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Introducing the Effective Altruism Addiction Recovery Group, published by Devin Kalish on July 20, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Since posting my article on alcoholism, I have, somewhat in the background, been trying to organize an EA recovery group with a few other interested people. This group would, ideally, be broadly defined and include alcoholism, which so far seems like the most common problem, but also other addictions, either to drugs, or more behavioral ones such as eating disorders. We have not had any meetings yet, but I have set up a Discord server which can be accessed here: Based on a poll I set up, I am leaning towards 5:00 PM EST July 25th as our initial meeting time. This meeting is meant more to discuss logistics and administration than to be a conventional group therapy meeting of any kind, although it might drift in that direction at points as well. So far I have not set any explicit rules, and don't want to before our first meeting, when I can get input from others. Given this, I am hoping no one does anything particularly ban-worthy before this time, as I will have to judge/get input on a case by case basis, and will prefer to start with warnings barring obviously intentional bad behavior. As a starting point, if you are EA or EA adjacent and have an addiction like one of those mentioned in the beginning, consider yourself invited. When the final rules are put in place I will likely more formally restrict it, and in the meantime I would prefer that you only come onto the server if you are, suspect you are, or have struggled with an addiction in the past. I will most likely also be welcoming to people with professional mental/community health experience, but before discussing the rules in a meeting, I would prefer that people who have a more impersonal interest in this project don't join right away. I do not plan to enforce this before the rules are set however, so long as you behave well. I am only posting this link while the project is still so half-baked because I would prefer to have more people present at an initial meeting where important matters of this sort are decided, rather than a small handful of the people who will eventually want to join. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me through my DMs. Thanks for listening. To help us out with The Nonlinear Library or to learn more, please visit nonlinear.org

Dr. Robb Kelly went from living on the streets to creating the #1 recovery system in the world. Growing up playing on stage and in the lifestyle that rock and roll can bring, Dr. Robb was taking the path, that he thought was laid out for him. After losing his wife, kids, house, cars, and money, Robb was then able to create the path that he dreamed of. Alcoholism is not about the product, it is about the person.

Jinger Duggar Vuolo joins the -Gothard Recovery Group,- -what appears to be an expanding help group- . . . as witnessed by her recent publicized interview on Fox News Digital. While the enemies of God will jump all over the scandals, the internal conflicts, and the shams of Christianity, they will never be able to sort out the good, the bad, and the ugly in the mix. While it isn't our job to sort out the Gothard mess and the basic life principles thereunto, we do wish to speak to the basic biblical principles by which we may better distinguish truth and error in any ministry or system of thought. We quickly tour through the ditches of legalism, antinomianism, wrong relationships of justification and sanctification, arbitrary hermeneutics, the sovereign-controlling tendencies of man-centered doctrine, and -the Lord told me- spiritual pseudo-authority.

Tonight's special guest is Mike Tikkanen from Hopkins, Minnesota, a returning NAASCA family member. Mike is all about working on prevention and intervention in his home state. The founder and President of 'Kids at Risk Action' (KARA), a non-profit action tank that supports the people, policies, and programs that improve the lives of at-risk children. Mike knows all the statistics of child abuse. He recently worked on a local PSA project, and asked us at NAASCA for ideas about how a survivor can 'Start a Recovery Group'. We recommend his book: 'Invisible Children: Pre-Teen Mothers, Adolescent Felons, and What We Can Do About It'. It's an uncomfortably close look at the American cycle of abuse and its cost. Mike explains, "The need for civic involvement of young future community leaders is the solution to America's 'At Risk Youth' problem. Without today's college students understanding and support, schools will continue to fail, streets to be unsafe, and jails to fill." Mike often speaks at local and national venues and has been the keynote speaker at business, community, and religious organizations. He's led a workshop at the UN in New York addressing the rights of children. Since 1996, he's volunteered in the Guardian Ad-Litem program as a Court-Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) and has worked with many 'Invisible Children' who are part of the County Child Protection System.
