Today we are talking about addiction but specifically the addictive/coping strategies we turn to and the psycho/emotional things going on below the surface that drive these behaviors.

Whether it’s closet eating, unconscious social media scrolling, alcohol dependency, retail therapy, sex addictions, nicotine… The list goes on - we can all relate at some level - and many high achievers have grown up in homes where addiction was part of our upbringing.

In this episode we unpack:

The two things that make something technically addictive
The dangers of collectivism - identifying to certain group dynamics
The role of shame and guilt that keeps us looped in - what are we really hiding from
What’s missing from many addiction ‘recovery’ programs and why people keep relapsing
Where to begin
The importance of taking ACTION in creating momentum - getting IN the body and shifting behavior
Delayed vs. instant gratification
The Addiction-Free Lifestyle by Ronnie Landis
Dopamine Reset Protocol:

Reboot – Lifestyle change; new skills acquisition -

Waking/sleep cycle
Recovery – Integrate/practice; recovering parts we lost through trauma, parts that led to addiction

Notable Quotes

“The things we get addicted to are just one dimension of the conversation.

The person is the other part of the conversation and

we need to be able to separate those two things. ”

“People often trade out one thing for another addiction

without fully healing what’s actually going on inside them”

Symptoms are just a downstream effect of sensation that’s arising in the body

of a deeper issue that needs to be addressed. - Ronnie
