What We Really Want: Conversations About Connection
If it's true that "...the opposite of addiction is not sobriety...the opposite of addiction is connection," there are lots of people who need to discover what true, healthy connection looks like. Whether the struggle is with addiction, toxic relationship dynamics, or something else, we've all tried to meet our needs in some really unhealthy ways. Way too often, the things we run to for comfort leave us feeling even more disconnected and alone than before.
Through conversations about the many ways we can connect, this podcast offers an invitation to discover and start getting what we really want, so we can live the lives we were created for.
Awaken (awakenrecovery.com) helps men and women whose lives have been wrecked by unwanted/addictive sexual behaviors and sexual betrayal trauma. We hope the podcast will help not only those struggling sexually, but anyone who seeks healthier ways of finding connection.
What We Really Want: Conversations About Connection
A Little Extra Helping with Greg & Stacey (Holiday Bonus)
"Send us a message! (questions, feedback, etc.)"
After what we hope was a great Thanksgiving, please enjoy this "Little Extra Helping" of the podcast.
While recording the intro to Episode 23 with Carol Sheets, Stacey and I talked for quite a long time. Too long to include it all in the episode itself. But we felt like what we talked about could be helpful for other people, so we're sharing that entire part of our conversation with you now.
Don't forget to listen to Carol's episode, "The Gift of Empathy," and get caught up on all our episodes you may have missed.
