The meanings we make about our life as an addict

In this episode we will discuss...

1. How we make meaning out of everything to give it a meaning, structure, and an order to the chaos that is the human experience.

2. Respecting other's model of the world (point of view)

3. Your map is not the territory. The words you use to describe a person, place, thing, or event is not what everyone else is or will experience.

This is gonna be a freaking blast!

Small steps become huge goals accomplished

Ep 106 - Life is a series of goals set and goals accomplished or, unfortunately, goals not achieved. Let's discuss the fortitude you have inside of you right now that when harnessed will lead you to the wise minded sense of self and the empowerment that comes with it.

The smallest next step will add up to thousands and thousands of steps and then you look back and it's like, "how did I get her," and, "thank you internal compass for guiding me to this new life."

My online course, Wise Mind Empowerment, is live and available to you. Hit me up on IG and let's talk about how to get you in and especially how this can guide you to the life you have always wanted.

Adult Ego vs Kid Ego

Ep 108 - In this episode we are going to discuss how the Adult Ego interacts with the Kid Ego. Some might call the Kid Ego the id because the id is where the impulsivity of a human comes from and when you think of a kid do you also think of an impulsive human? Probably, yes.

Ego develops from the id and ensures that the impulses of the id can be expressed in a manner acceptable in the real world. Great, so now you are reminded of the psychological definition of ego. The ego functions in the conscious, preconscious, and unconscious mind. So the ego is all up in your head.

I want to frame the Adult Ego as the part of you that knows you have responsibilities to tend to in order to become your highest, empowered self. The Kid Ego wants fun now, now, now - and as people in sobriety and addiction recovery we know all too well the dangers of seeking fun, fun, fun right now, now, now over being "responsible" and getting our stuff done.

The Kid Ego can be acknowledged and will be paid the attention it has earned, by sitting quietly and waiting its turn, after we get done what we said to ourselves we will get done.

I will admit, I go off the rails a couple time, but I know you are patient and partly enjoy my "soapbox sermons" and "de-railing diatribes" so you are in for a treat today my friends!
