Podcast Overview

You're not broken. You're just figuring it out in real time. 42+ years sober. Still dealing with anxious attachment, abandonment wounds, and panic that won't quit. This isn't about having it all figured out—it's about surviving your own head while you work on it. If one more person tells you to "think positive" while your nervous system is screaming, come here instead. Real talk. No bullshit. No guru promises. Just someone further down the road, sharing what actually works. New episodes every Tuesday. Because you deserve consistency.

Episode 56: Surrender vs Avoidance; Tribute to Keverne

<p>This episode is dedicated to Gregg&#39;s sister Keverne. Recorded during one of the hardest weeks of his life, it explores one of the most misused words in recovery: surrender.</p><p>A meeting story about a child possibly at risk, met with &quot;I&#39;ve given it to God, there&#39;s nothing I can do&quot; — versus a diagnosis with truly nothing left to control. Same words, opposite functions. Gregg unpacks the test for telling the difference, how anxiety runs the identical con in everyday life, and what happens when a family carries anxiety severe enough to cost real treatment, real goodbyes. The way out, in the end, isn&#39;t a phrase — it&#39;s complete surrender, actually lived, not just spoken.</p><p>For Keverne, with more love than words can hold.</p><p><strong>HASHTAGS</strong></p><p>#Recovery #Sobriety #Surrender #Anxiety #MentalHealthAwareness #CopingStrategies #Faith #Grief #FamilyAnxiety #12StepRecovery #GetBetterAtBeingHuman #TerrificTuesdays #SoberLife #FaithOverFear #LetGo #RecoveryCommunity #KeepShowingUp</p><p></p>

Episode 55: How Did It Slip Under The Control Wire? Internal Title: Thy Will, Not Mine

<p>How does something slip under the control wire? That&#39;s the question Gregg opens with this week — because it happened to him, mid-job-search, 42 years sober and still caught white-knuckling an outcome that was never his to control.</p><p>Turns out control isn&#39;t the cure for anxiety. Control IS the anxiety. This episode digs into why — including a look at whether &quot;control&quot; is even a real character defect, and what the Big Book actually says is underneath it. Whether you&#39;ve got 30 days or 30 years, the same self-will finds new things to grip once the drinking stops: jobs, relationships, money, outcomes.</p><p>The question this week: where has your will quietly taken the wheel — and what did it cost you once you noticed?</p><p><strong>HASHTAGS</strong></p><p>#Anxiety #Recovery #Sobriety #Control #CopingStrategies #MentalHealthAwareness #MentalHealthMatters #Sober #RecoveryJourney #Podcast #SelfWill #Surrender #GetBetterAtBeingHuman #TerrificTuesdays #SoberLife #12StepRecovery #FaithAndRecovery #BigBook #LetGo #KeepShowingUp #RecoveryCommunity</p><p></p>

Episode 54- Why Won't I let You Love ME

<p>Late one night, half-joking, Gregg asked an AI: &quot;Why can&#39;t I let you love me?&quot; But he already knew the answer — he&#39;d quit doing the work, and that&#39;s when the old voice shows up: not enough, not worthy.</p><p>This week&#39;s a shorter one, but it goes deep — why real love feels like a flood instead of a slow drip, the pattern of jumping in too fast in every relationship, and the moment he realized he&#39;d lost someone who loved him well simply because he couldn&#39;t stop doubting it. The answer, same as always: tell the truth. Not just to them — to yourself first.</p><p>Anxiety, anxious attachment, and one honest look at what happens when the practices that keep you steady quietly drop off.</p><p><strong>HASHTAGS</strong></p><p>#MentalHealthAwareness #Recovery #Sobriety #AnxiousAttachment #Relationships #CopingStrategies #MentalHealthMatters #Sober #RecoveryJourney #Podcast #ServiceWork #GetBetterAtBeingHuman #TerrificTuesdays #SoberLife #SelfWorth #MentalHealthSupport #12StepRecovery #FaithAndRecovery #TraumaRecovery #Vulnerability #TellTheTruth #KeepShowingUp #RecoveryCommunity</p><p></p>
