The One Day At A Time Recovery Podcast

Hi Friend, thank you for downloading this episode and hanging out with us today! If you hear some snoring, that’s just my english bulldog Ted. I didn’t have the heart to kick him out so he’s hanging out with us too.   Today’s question is:  Can you get sober for someone else?    There is a lot of debate around the idea of getting sober for someone else. In this episode, I have a conversation with Paul Summers Jr, who is a returning guest. He is the author of “Hide and Seek: A Dad’s Journey from Soulless addiction to sole custody”.    In this episode Paul shares his story of drug addiction, how he got sober for his daughter, and the fight to save her from an addict mother.    Before we jump in, I wanted to share an idea that has really helped a lot of my clients as they work towards breaking old behavior patterns and achieving really big goals, and that is the Law of 51%. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by changes that you want to make or goal...

Is your self-worth tied to your relationship with money?    It is for me! And I know it is for so many of us in recovery. Money is a very triggering topic and touches so many aspects of our lives. And we rarely talk about it! So in this episode, we’re going to get into it.   Today I’m speaking with Julie Reisler who is the author of Get a PhD in YOU: A Course in Miraculous Self-Discovery , podcast host of “The Youest-You”, and a woman in long term recovery from food addiction.   In this episode we’ll cover topics like:   Food Addiction   Examples of Money Wounds   Limiting Money Beliefs   12 Steps To Healing Money Issues   Julie has so many insights to share. My favorite quote from her is: “What’s reflected outside is a mirror of what’s going on inside”. So true!   I’m really excited to share this conversation with you, so without further delay, please enjoy this episode with Julie.   Connect with Julie Here: ht...

Hi Friend! This is going to be a really good one, especially for those who participate in ACA, which is Adult Children of Alcoholics/Dysfunctional Families. In the 338 episodes I’ve recorded so far, I’ve actually never covered this topic!   My guest for this conversation is Dr. Sharon Martin. She is a psychotherapist and author specializing in codependency recovery. For the past 25 years, she’s been helping adult children recover from difficult childhoods, overcome feelings of unworthiness, and learn to set boundaries. Dr. Martin is the author of four self-help books, including “The Better Boundaries Workbook” and “Cutting Ties with Your Parents.” She also writes the popular blog Conquering Codependency for Psychology Today.   In this episode we’re going to be talking about setting boundaries, codependency, perfectionism, and how to handle events such as weddings and funerals if you’ve cut ties with your parents.   Anyway, I’m really excited to share this conversati...
