The Lie That Keeps You Trapped in Addiction | Rowan Vale
Most people think addiction is the problem. It's not. Addictions are a symptom of something deeper: identity loss—giving yourself away piece by piece until you don't recognize your own face. Author Rowan Vale, seven months sober and still doing the daily work, speaks from lived experience about the lie that keeps people trapped—the belief that they're too far gone to change. He explores the difference between performing a life and actually living one, what coming home to yourself requires day to day, and why recovery is not a destination but an unfinished truth. This conversation offers no soundbites—just honesty as a practice, for anyone who feels quietly lost. Khudania Ajay (KAJ) leads the conversation.

Why Knowing You're Addicted Isn't Enough | Peg O'Connor
You know you have a problem with drinking, substances, or addictive behaviors. You've known it for years. But knowing hasn't been enough to change—and that gap between knowing and being ready is dangerous. Professor of philosophy and person in long term recovery Peg O'Connor explains why that gap exists and how philosophy can help bridge it.

Addiction Recovery: Why Connection Is the Only Way Out | Austin Rampt
Addiction is often framed as a failure of willpower. But what if the real issue is disconnection—from yourself, from others, from purpose? Austin Rampt, author of One Last Hit and host of the One Last Hit Podcast, knows this from the inside: childhood trauma, living with a cartel in Mexico, and years of addiction before he found recovery. He shares why connection is the antidote to addiction, what it takes to rebuild your life, and how to help someone who is struggling. This conversation offers a raw, honest look at recovery that goes beyond the 12 steps—and a practical message of hope for anyone facing addiction or supporting a loved one through it.

What Comes After Rock Bottom? A Real Conversation on Rebuilding Life | Jessie Tylre Williams
What happens after rock bottom? In this conversation, Jesse Tylre Williams shares her journey through addiction, trauma, and rebuilding her life—again and again. With over 17 years of sobriety, she speaks about what most people don’t see: not quitting, but staying clean. The daily work, the environment you choose, and the responsibility that comes with starting over. We explore: Why addiction is often a response, not the real problem; the difference between stopping and sustaining recovery; what “nobody is coming to save you” actually means; why the messy middle is where real change happens; how rebuilding is possible at any age. This is not about the fall or the comeback. It’s about the work in between.
