About From Sobriety To Recovery: An Addiction Recovery Podcast
Have you ever looked in the mirror and been disappointed with who’s looking back, or even worse, horrified by who you’ve become? After awakening in his bathtub, practically dead and not sure how to face another day, Jesse decided he didn’t want to die - he wanted to live differently. From that moment on, he decided to figure out how to do just that, live differently, and to become the person who didn't waste his potential.
In 2017, after two decades of battling addiction, Jesse embarked on a life-altering path toward long-term addiction recovery. This podcast delves into the nuances distinguishing sobriety from long-term recovery and how to handle those pesky emotions active addiction helped keep at bay. Jesse shares his personal experience, transitioning from the depths of addiction to a proactive journey of recovery.
Discover the power of a growth mindset, the art of processing and releasing emotions, the significance of nurturing relationships, the importance of self-forgiveness, and building a fulfilling life beyond addiction - through a powerful Neuro-Linguistic Programming lens of life. Jesse’s story is a testament to the transformative power of recovery, providing insights and support for others on their journey.
Join Jesse as he navigates the complex yet rewarding terrain of long-term recovery, featuring real-life stories, expert recovery coaching advice, and a supportive community. This podcast is a beacon of hope and guidance for anyone seeking to turn the page from addiction to a life of purpose and joy.
Some addictions come from what you ingest. Others come from what you do.
This episode breaks down substance addictions versus process or behavioral addictions through a lens most people miss: the ritual. You'll hear how both types run the same cycle - cue → craving → response → reward - but deliver the "hit" through different routes: consumption and chemistry versus action and stimulation.
You'll also learn the Six P's that make the pattern obvious in real life:
Planning - who, what, when, where, and/or how you're going to do it
Procure - how you get access
Prepare - how you set the stage
Permission - the story you tell yourself
Perform - the act itself
Protect - how you hide it, minimize it, and keep it aliveW'llll cover why anticipation can be its own dose, how tolerance and withdrawal can show up differently across substances and behaviors, where food fits into the conversation, and the red flags that tell yoit's’s no longe" “just a hab"t” it's’s something shaping your schedule, mood, priorities, and identity.
Just hit play, and let’s dive in with open minds and hearts—you are in the right place at the right time—right now!

Nine Years Sober
Ep #321: Nine years ago, I made a decision that changed my life in so many ways I could not have prognosticated this life I live if you had given me a million guesses. The mantra, and there are many, that seems to be ringing the loudest today is, "I can do hard things."
You might have self-doubt. You might feel worthless. You might feel the opposite. One thing I know to be true, even without knowing you, is that you have value. You have worth. You are an amazing person who has experienced many tragedies and traumatic moments.
I don't have all the answers. I do know I am searching for them. I know that I awake each day seeking something far greater than I, and from this energy, I bring this show to you.
Here is to another day, week, month, year, and all that is beyond this day and more than all of that...here is to this moment right now. That is what we have. Let's make the most of it.
Repeat after me: I can do hard things. I do hard things. I complete hard things. Life is made harder when we are hard on each other. Today I choose inclusivity. Today I choose sobriety.I do hard things. I do them today.I will do them tomorrow.
Inclusivity over Exclusivity
The power of positive energy: Release and Flow.
Every day is the best day of our lives when we wake up sober.

Inside a recent episode
Substance vs. Process/Behavior Addictions
Published 20 Feb 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Right. Check for a quick personal audit on yourself. You know, watch for some of the universal red flags, a loss of control, a preoccupation, an escalation of the unsettling emotions that you're feeling because that anticipation starts to turn into impatience. You'll continue to use the drug or continue to perform the behavior even though there are negative consequences? Are you being secret and trying to minimize it to others and specifically yourself? Oh, it's fine. It's just a little bit, just a little nip. Is your mood dependent on the process or the substance? And do you notice that your values begin to drift and shift? […]
