The Wound of Independence
July 03, 2022 11:00 - 50 minutes - 46.7 MBHappy 4th of July!!! Now let's dig into the wound of Independence. In this episode, I speak with Mary Wagstaff, a holistic alcohol coach for Women. She is radicalizing what it means to live alcohol-free through the lens of Women's empowerment for the aquarian age. We cover a lot of territories as we discuss masculine and feminine energy and the difference between independent and individual. "Independence" belongs to the group while "individual" belongs to the (surprise) individual. So man...
We are Chaos Creators
June 19, 2022 11:00 - 44 minutes - 40.3 MBCreating Chaos in our lives is easy, and we all do it. Every expectation we carry for ourselves or others creates chaos. In this episode, I am talking with Thomas FreeMe about how when we have expectations and lie to ourselves and others we are creating chaos. That, and how the system, that we look to for guidance is creating chaos as well. If you are interested in contacting Thomas FreeMe check out his work by googling "Thomas FreeMe Podcast" or just connect here on YouTube. Recover...
My Dark Retreat
May 01, 2022 11:23 - 1 hour - 65.1 MBI recently returned from Guatemala where I spent 5.5 days in complete darkness at The Hermitage Retreats. This experience gave me a lot to think about and a lot to integrate into my life. Darkness has always been beautiful for me. When I was much younger I used to sit in a bathroom in the house I lived in which got no light in it unless the basement light was on. Sitting in there I had beautiful experiences of space breathing, whatever that means. Needless to say, I was very excited to exper...
The Healing Power of Awareness
November 14, 2021 13:00 - 34 minutes - 31.9 MBAwareness is a cumulative process. If you start right now and open yourself to becoming aware of something that you previously were not aware of, like “What are you avoiding doing?” Whether there is a clear answer or not matters less than being aware that the question may have an answer. That is how we become aware, we can simply start by asking a question about how we feel about something and approach it with curiosity. Ann HInce is the author of A Pathway to Insight, published a year ago ...
True Love Over Tough Love Every Time
November 07, 2021 12:00 - 54 minutes - 49.8 MBHarm reduction has been a huge focus of mine recently and I am happy to be conversing with Gretchen for this episode. I have to admit, I am a fan of toughness. That is not to say I am a fan of tough love, many people see my approach as one that stems from tough love but that’s not the case. Love, deep love, when we have it for ourselves and can offer it to others can very quickly look tough as it relates to the tough love movement, but it is what motivates those actions that are the measure....
Moving into "Recovering To"
October 31, 2021 11:49 - 40 minutes - 37.5 MBAll of my work revolves around this concept of "Recovering To." Without hesitation, I believe that if we can each recover ourselves and stop living under the influence of others we will not only live amazing lives, we will contribute, love, inspire, and support everyone around us without even trying. Doing that will also help us naturally evade unnecessary conflict, stress, and health problems. But we first have to recognize where we are being influenced. I have been doing this work for a ...
You Are All That You Go Through
October 24, 2021 12:00 - 44 minutes - 40.9 MBIn this episode With Jenna Velez, she mentions the phrase “Post Traumatic Growth” which I had not yet heard in my travels. It is such a great phrase for many of my experiences, because, yes, I have experienced trauma, but it was that trauma that I grew through. That is not to say I want others to experience that trauma as well but we, all of us on this planet, have resilience. In a recent episode with Ken Bain he mentioned that we punish people who try but have not yet succeeded. I mention ...
Healthy People in a Diseased System
October 17, 2021 10:30 - 31 minutes - 28.9 MBThe system of treatment as it relates to substance use has not followed the research. There is no other way to put it. If we were to examine the system related to its actions and the outcomes they claim to desire we can easily see that the system has a problem. It is not acting appropriately and continuing to perpetuate problems. This is not only the case for the addiction treatment world, unfortunately. We have already seen this play out in education, in my interview with Ken Bain, and ...
NAD a Fast Track to Clear Thinking
October 10, 2021 12:00 - 52 minutes - 47.8 MBNAD is a supplement. Similar to testosterone, if we are not producing enough, we want to supplement it. Well, NAD enhances the ability of Vitamin B3 to support cellular healing in the body. This is a naturally occurring element in the body in which production can decrease for several reasons. Substance abuse or any abuse the body suffers could potentially erode the production of this in our body, as well as aging. I am talking with Mike Godfrey and Stephanie Rose who are working together on...
Harm Reduction
October 03, 2021 12:00 - 47 minutes - 43.5 MBHarm Reduction is exactly what it sounds like, the desire to reduce harm. If you are not actively wanting to do harm there is no reason to oppose the ideas around harm reduction. We are looking to have a system that treats people with more respect than it currently does. Does that mean when we get you to treat people better, we will stop, no it doesn’t. Because when you treat people a little better, we will ask you to once again reevaluate and treat people even better than that. Maia ment...
Super Courses: The Beginning of the End of Stigma
September 26, 2021 14:00 - 47 minutes - 43.3 MBI did bad in school. It’s no secret, but that experience kept me from seeking higher education. I also lived many years denying my own intelligence in an attempt to not have to face the pain of not fitting in. Many of you may know I do not enjoy reading, that is not an easy thing to own about oneself while surrounded by readers. It should be said that those who I surrounded myself with did love me, but it was my perceptions and fears that kept me from receiving it. All of that was because I ...
A and B Brain Processes: The Breadth and Debt of Addiction
June 13, 2021 11:00 - 48 minutes - 44.6 MBIn this episode, I am speaking with Judy Grisel about the A and B processes. And this is something we all have to face. Have you ever drunk coffee to feel more awake and then, when it wears off you are more tired? That is the A and B process at work. The thing is though, as you hear in our conversation, that after a time, and increased use or abuse, the A process has to be used consistently just to feel normal. So, if you have been drinking coffee every morning for years it is likely that yo...
Resilience Fatigue
June 06, 2021 11:00 - 53 minutes - 48.9 MBThis episode is for Caregivers. If you are a parent, or a child caring for an elderly parent, a counselor, clinician, or even a sibling, this episode unpacks so much of the complex backdrop of caregiving. Over the past year, we have seen those in our lives who have usually been the most resistant, get taxed to their limit. This is because the normal resilient load has been multiplied, not only by more people but by more problems as well. As the world gets taxed, and it gets increasingly ...
The Energy of Choice
May 23, 2021 11:00 - 40 minutes - 37.2 MBEnergy is all around us and we interact with it at every turn, in every moment. There are things that energetically lift us and other things that weigh us down. How we interact with energy is one thing we can look at whenever we experience any sort of malady we can think of, even being a victim. This week I am talking with Dr. Marina Kostina about the energy of the choices we make. If everything we do has an energy cost associated with it then every choice, we make is filled with potential ...
Pacifiers: The Line Between Addiction and Self-Discovery
May 09, 2021 10:48 - 50 minutes - 46.7 MBSo what is a pacifier? It is anything you do to soothe yourself when you are feeling uncomfortable. Some of these, like drugs, alcohol, or gambling have been known to cause serious problems in some people’s lives. That is primarily because people feel extreme levels of discomfort and want soothing. That, and the amount of dopamine, and other chemicals, these substances and activities are known to release, are such, that the person can easily be taken well beyond comfort and straight to escap...
Building a New Frame of Reference
May 02, 2021 10:48 - 38 minutes - 35.6 MBConnect with Kaii on Instagram @KaiiMarie_LLC or through her website https://www.kaiimarie.com/ It is so important for us to look inward especially as caregivers of any kind. We want so often to be of help simply because we may feel lost ourselves. When we look to help are we looking to solve the problems of others? Or are we looking to be a temporary post for them to lean on while they get their legs under them again? I have spoken with many people on this podcast about how the role of th...
Sober Relationships: The ASCENT Approach
April 25, 2021 11:00 - 49 minutes - 45.4 MBThe most important relationship we have is with ourselves. Now that I’ve said that let’s look at romantic relationships in recovery. You’re move to recovery was done for you; I hope. Your partner is going to experience a lot of benefits from your hard work but that doesn’t mean they don’t have work to do as well. In this episode I am talking with Chantal Jauvin about her new book Love Without Martinis which is all about relationships after treatment. In it she lays out the ASCENT approach w...
Playing the Long Game
April 18, 2021 10:19 - 34 minutes - 31.6 MBThe Long Game is not always something that is obvious. The world around us, especially here in the United States, wants us to focus on the Short Game. The Short Game gets us leaning on others, Google, status, money, and all sorts of things to help us feel more comfortable. We can fool ourselves into thinking the Short Game is the goal, like marriage. When the Long Game, which is hidden behind the Short Game, is where we are going to experience the most fulfillment. As it relates to marriage,...
Zero Tolerance: From Birth to Stigma
April 11, 2021 11:27 - 45 minutes - 41.9 MBZero Tolerance is kind of a big deal. Like trickle-down economics, it doesn’t work but we (our society) keep on working it. When we turn away from the facts around zero tolerance like it causes more harm than good, which has been proven time and again, we are just kicking the can down the road. You see, Zero Tolerance is a bill that is going to have to be paid, but, and this is just like addiction, if we don’t face it head-on and make the changes we need to make now, well, we’re just paying ...
When the Ideal isn’t Available: Making the Best of Good Enough
March 28, 2021 11:00 - 40 minutes - 36.7 MBIf we insist on waiting for the best time to do what we want to do or to do what is good for us, we’ll never get around to it. There is no perfect time to do anything. So, any time is the perfect time to do everything. I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to hear people use the phrase “Bucket List,” if you want to do something start doing it now. And that is no different when it comes to our vices. The last 2 years I spent smoking I did not enjoy it, but it was an identity I carried, ...
Finding Our Bias: Moving Away from the Group
March 21, 2021 11:00 - 35 minutes - 32.6 MBGroups are a double-edged sword. They can act as a rocket booster to get us off the ground and moving in a direction. Just having done that in our lives we can be put in a position to idolize the group, and sometimes the people in it. Groups can intimidate just as easily as they support and groups can start out on one clear path and slowly, over time, completely change course. That is not to say an individual doesn’t do that as well, but we do it as it fits into our lives, whether erroneous ...
Have We Ever Known Ourselves: The Possibilities
March 14, 2021 10:00 - 53 minutes - 48.9 MBWhat we are capable of is immeasurable. We walk around believing so many things about ourselves, never having really looked at ourselves from the space of a blank slate. We come into the world already wired through the womb of our mother to believe the world is how they experienced it. From there we further get trained to learn how to experience and expect life to be. But we, individually, are so much greater than that. How do I know? Because not you, nor I, or anybody can ever be described,...
Forgiveness: Dismantling Revenge through NonJustice
March 07, 2021 11:00 - 58 minutes - 53.5 MBRevenge is one of those things that, once we are under the influence of it, we can find it hard to separate from. We all have grievances, but once we allow ourselves to feel like we are being victimized things can quickly get out of hand. In this episode, I am talking with James Kimmel Jr., a lead developer of the NonJustice System, and we are talking about forgiveness. Those of us in some sort of recovery may have, and may still, feel victimized. We may have utilized our DOC (Drug of Choic...
Admitting there is a Problem
February 28, 2021 11:27 - 42 minutes - 38.8 MBTRIGGER WARNING In this discussion we mention child sexual abuse, rape, and the holocaust. In this episode, I am speaking with Geoffrey Godfrey of Ideal Option https://www.idealoption.com/ and we are tackling a big step for all of us. Not just recognizing there is a problem but admitting it. So often we can see a problem and as long as no one else brings it up we feel like we are hiding it well. You would be surprised how many children know their parents drink and yet the parents believe ...
Beyond Abstinence: Living Sober with Purpose
February 21, 2021 10:04 - 26 minutes - 24.4 MBIf you’re interested in a walkthrough of Yana, I encourage you to check out this episode on YouTube. Just jump to the 26th minute, and to watch as Tyler walks me through the essentials of Yana and addresses its platform directly. Tyler Matheny is a co-founder of Yana (You Are Not Alone) which is a program agnostic activity app for the sober community. Tyler helps us define some of the major differences between the terms: abstinence, sobriety, and recovery. Tyler faces his recovery, like ma...
Trump: A Look Back at Four Years Under Active Addiction
January 17, 2021 11:00 - 34 minutes - 31.7 MBAddiction holds a lot of stigmas and this episode might really agitate a lot of people because I am looking to place addiction in the hands of every one of us. Those of us who have been traditionally seen as addicts have held the bag long enough. Politics have divided us and turn us on one another, but that is only on the face of it. Behind the politics, at the core of everything that has been going on in the US my entire life, is addiction. We have journeyed headlong into a contract with a...
Grasping at Straws: Doubling Down on Our Fleeting Identities
December 27, 2020 11:00 - 48 minutes - 44.4 MBKarith Foster is a comedian, speaker, television and radio personality, actress, author, and entrepreneur. In this episode, we are talking about identity and doubling down. When we attach so heavily to our identities, we can easily get lost in details that might not be as important as the feel at the moment. Our identities are things we really hold dear, but we are always changing so much it is hard to even pin down an identity. However, in our world, today, being attached to an identity ca...
Persuasive Design: The Trojan Horse in the Hands of Children
December 20, 2020 10:00 - 48 minutes - 44.8 MBTracy Markle and Dr. Brett Kennedy are the fore of developing best practices for the treatment of digital media overuse issues. And to have them contribute the some of the insidious ways persuasive design is used to keep us engaged is a huge win for this podcast. In this episode, both Tracy and Brett share both their expertise and their experiences. Check out what they are doing at dTEC here https://digitalmediatreatment.com/ The reason we, as people in recovery, want to know about this is ...
Discovering Who We are After Pretending to Be Who We Weren’t
December 13, 2020 10:26 - 45 minutes - 41.7 MBOur identity is something we cling to. It doesn’t matter that we know identity is temporary, I mean none of us hold the same values and identity that we did when we were 10. There is also the fact that change is the only constant in our lives. However, we still grapple with identity. From being a sibling, or parent, to having a career or a place we call home, all of that is merely how we identify at the moment. These, short order identities, can be some of the most important things to us, es...
The Opioid Epidemic Today: At the Crossroads of Business and Ethics
December 06, 2020 11:51 - 35 minutes - 32.4 MBHow important is the bottom line and how many people have been pushed aside for that bottom line? Our culture has put business in front of all else and this has caused a fracturing in everything worth a damn. The bottom line has broken up families and has directly challenged some of our most dearly held ethics. As our friends, neighbors, and our entire social media streams all become increasingly transactional relationships, I think it is time to look at Dope. Tracking how opioids spread can...
Intuitive Theories: Living in the Prison of Old Perceptions
October 11, 2020 11:00 - 41 minutes - 37.6 MBIt is important to always try and grasp onto a more accurate view of the world. The theories that we’ve created about the world intuitively, often as children, are very wrong. Andrew, the author of ScienceBlind, is speaking in the realm of hard science, like biology, physics, chemistry, and so on, as he is expressing intuitive theories. I want to suggest however that this is exactly the same when it comes to the soft sciences and in all aspects of our lives, most importantly, relationships. ...
Inner Restorative Justice with Tio Hardiman
October 04, 2020 10:00 - 42 minutes - 39.3 MBIn this episode, I am talking with Tio Hardiman, executive director of Violence interrupters. We are talking all about restorative justice which is an approach to healing communities after violence. It may seem a bit off base from the Recovery work I usually address but when we can think about restoring all of the aspects of ourselves, then we are recovering ourselves. Tio talks about perpetrators having to face victims and the families of their victims. In our lives, we have to do the same...
Decolonizing Our Identity
September 27, 2020 09:35 - 54 minutes - 50.2 MBWho you are is greater than the narrow-mindedness of our current world. We have one primary way of teaching and learning, which not everyone excels in. We have one major value system which revolves around finance and popularity. We are trained to judge ourselves by these limited definitions. When we don’t “add up” within the system, in which we are forced to interact, we are pushed to the outskirts. I surmise that about 12% of the population can work well within any singular system. If we w...

Talking Recovery: Recap of Recent Episodes
September 13, 2020 10:00 - 36 minutes - 33.2 MBThis episode is meant to connect some of the dots of the past 6 episodes. As I am focused on topics now more than individual stories it may not be clear as to how these individual topics may connect to the topic of “Recovering To.” This is because we are all in different places in our recovery and some of these may be more intriguing to you than others. Episodes like this will give you a bit of an overview and hopefully open you to ideas, and listening to episodes that are included in these ...
Reframing Fear
September 06, 2020 10:00 - 47 minutes - 43.2 MBLast week we looked at treatment centers from the vantage point of someone who is on the ground working with patients and for the centers. If you didn't get a chance to listen here is the link https://anchor.fm/martinjon/episodes/Understanding-Treatment-Centers-eihpu3 Not all centers are created equal, however. Today, as we spoke about in the last episode, there are a lot of conflicting issues with offering help through an institution. Of course, I don’t have all the numbers and I am not inv...
Understanding Treatment Centers
August 30, 2020 09:00 - 49 minutes - 44.9 MBTreatment centers are an essential role to play within the world of recovery. They are complex entities in society these days as they explicitly separate what society deems as “addicts” from the rest of the population, all of whom have addictive tendencies as well. Treatment centers are one of the places that everyone quietly judges as they are, by design, meant to attract those who society pushes to the outskirts. As organizations, their missions are not always as benevolent as they may see...
Patience and Trust in the Healing Process During Recovery
August 23, 2020 09:01 - 34 minutes - 31.8 MBPatience is a key feature if we ever what to do anything new. When we begin something we are going to suck at it. If by chance we don’t, we will eventually learn that there is still room to grow and a lot of it. I am talking with Deana Barnes of @blackandsober and @deanabarnesbeauty about being patient during recovery. Healing is healing and no matter if you are doing it physically or emotionally there are some very key similarities. If you have a scab, and you pick at it the possibility of ...
Evolution: Stepping into Consciousness
August 16, 2020 03:44 - 40 minutes - 37.4 MBEvolution is happening all around us all the time. It has been interesting for me to have been born in a time of what is known as “Quickening.” This refers to consciousness, that we are all connected to, changing increasingly rapidly. To give you some perspective I was born before answering machines, for telephones, were common, and I still consider myself quite young at 45. What has happened in the world is astonishing, but to look at what cannot be seen, the consciousness of all things, we...
The Myth of Creativity and Intoxication: Pop Buchanan
August 09, 2020 10:00 - 45 minutes - 41.3 MBThere is no greater lie than the idea that intoxication contributes to creativity. The idea that you create drunk and edit sober is today, a total falsity. This episode features the prolific and energetic @popbuchanan who is the man behind @soberisdope and @monkhealing We are here to dismantle the old idea, which I believe was true at one point in time, that intoxication contributes to creativity. My next episode with @bakerallen will address the idea that consciousness is something we are g...
Recognizing and Addressing Expectations
August 02, 2020 10:00 - 46 minutes - 43 MBThis is the beginning of a new format for the Recover Yourself Podcast. Previous episodes focused on individuals and now we are looking at topics. This episode addresses expectations, those we have, those we think others have, and those others actually have of us. Expectations are so hard to suss out due to their being so deeply ingrained in our experience. These are very often tied to traumas we experienced as children and so they end up showing up day in and day out as facts. To have exp...
Chris Robinson: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
April 26, 2020 11:00 - 46 minutes - 42.6 MBIn this episode, I am speaking with Chris Robinson who is a Y12SR instructor. His journey in recovery had him seeking approval and validation. He had to open up to his needs revolving around that validation. Those needs had him going out and getting one certificate after another proving to him, and others, that he was valid, that he had something to offer. Knowing that we are what we have to offer is a big step in our growth and recovery. Knowing that we have nothing to prove and that we are...
Ester Nicholson of Soul Recovery: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
April 19, 2020 11:00 - 50 minutes - 46.4 MBIn this episode, I am speaking with the author and founder of Soul Recovery Ester NicholsonEster has a staggering 34 years and I am so excited to be talking with her about what has to be one of the most important parts of recovering yourself, What is the self we are recovering? That self we are recovering, in Ester’s words, is our Soul. I must agree and she and I dive deep about how the work gets done. With so much going on around us today we must do the work, but to just tell you to do the ...
Nikki Myers: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
April 12, 2020 10:00 - 48 minutes - 44.7 MBIn this episode, I am speaking with the founder of @Y12SR (Yoga 12 Step Recovery) Nikki Myers. Nikki realized after 2 relapses, that although both Yoga and 12 Steps programs are both useful in solidifying one’s recovery, she and others like her needed a way to connect the two differing aspects. Yoga, a combination of physical and mental awareness had little to offer her in the cognitive world we are all raised in. The 12 Step programs that we have all around us tend to exist in the cognitive...
Nathan Siler: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
April 05, 2020 09:00 - 57 minutes - 52.6 MBIn this episode, I am talking Nathan Siler performer and composer who lives and works in NYC. In addition to being the chief architect of the NYC post-punk-prog band Portraiture, he is a classical singer who frequently sings at Carnegie Hall with the Bard Festival Chorale and at Lincoln Center with NY Concert Chorale. Recently he was imprisoned (on stage) in the World Premiere of David Lang’s new Opera “The Prisoner of the State” at Lincoln Center. He also keeps a packed schedule of compos...
Trenda Hedges: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
March 29, 2020 10:00 - 51 minutes - 47 MBIn this episode, I am talking Trenda Hedges the Wellness and Recovery Program Manager of Illinois’ Warm Line. Trenda has a history of addiction and has been working with the state of Illinois to help those struggling with, and curious about, addiction and recovery. She educates people about recovery by addressing it in communities in hopes to remove stigmas and resistance. Her recovery, and relationship with God, is earmarked upon losing her son, which we talk about in this episode. This, of...
Matt Bodett: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
March 22, 2020 01:09 - 43 minutes - 40.4 MBIn this episode, I am talking with artist Matt Bodett. Matt was diagnosed with Schizophrenia and after initially recovering from the diagnosis, he began to rebuild his life in a way that he wanted. He looked at the system and stood up for himself within it. The responsibility, and clarity that requires is enormous and we speak about that in the episode. The medical industry which, if you have ever been to an IOP you will know, is very much about us appearing a certain way more than it is abo...
The Sober Senorita: Recover Yourself with MartinJon
March 15, 2020 10:50 - 45 minutes - 41.5 MBIn this episode, I am talking with Sober Blogger and She Recovers recovery coach Kelly Fitzgerald Junco AKA The Sober Senorita. https://sobersenorita.com/ What I love about this episode is that Kelly is right on the cusp os 7 years and her awareness is opening up to new things all the time. This is the magic of long term recovery. Sure after a year, you can see the benefits, and after a few more you have gone through all sorts of ups and downs and continue to hold on tight to sobriety. But t...
