Episode notes

If you have a bona fide addict in your life, everything that you likely want to do to help them is only going to hurt them. Anything you do to make an addict's life easier is going to encourage them to keep using more. And so there's a real tendency for people who have experienced trauma that need relief. They medicate by trying to save another person and focusing and becoming quite addicted to that person. So go get help for yourself, save your fucking self, put on your own oxygen mask first.

Josh Trent has always been consumed by a child-like curiosity, driving him to deconstruct and understand anything he learns about.

This insatiable curiosity kicked off a search for the truth about wellness, and over the past 16 years, Josh has learned that wellness isn’t just something that we do – it’s something that we are, an internal force that guides our thoughts and actions.

And being well, then, isn’t just about the workout routines, supplements, organic foods, or biohacking tech. It’s also about learning how to be fully present, emotionally intelligent, and spiritually fulfilled.

This is why Josh founded Wellness Force Media – to help over 10 million men and women discover the physical and emotional intelligence necessary to live life well.

None of us should settle for mediocrity when it comes to our physical health, emotional health, or fulfillment. So, today, Josh helps me to investigate my journey and, in the process, gives us all a new perspective on our own wellness.
