054: The Path to Recovery from Addiction w/ Tim

When we start to look at the root motivations behind our behaviors, it starts to become clear that many (if not almost all) humans are looking for the same things. Whether it's connection to self, connection to the world, or connection to a bigger purpose, it seems that connection is an imperative factor to living an adaptive and peaceful life. This week Tim and I deeply converse about his path through addiction and how a lack of that "connection" can lead to external coping mechanisms that ultimately leave us in a feedback loop of feeling helpless and even more separate. Tim sheds some powerful wisdom and light at the end of the tunnel as he continues to move though the life long journey of self love, higher purpose and togetherness. Such an interesting conversation with some fantastic resources and tips to navigate our inner world, behind and before our addictive behaviors started to control us.

Thank you so much for sharing Tim, you're the man
