Clearing Away the Wreckage

Neights Back! After an over 3 month stint in the clink, Neight is back in his chair and he gets real with us about what it was like, what happened and what it's like now. Neight's raw emotion can be felt as he tells us how it felt to go to jail while in recovery and how he managed to stay sober through it. Sometimes clearing away the wreckage of our past, catches up to us in the present. Sometimes, even sobriety can't save us from making mistakes. Either way, its important to own those mistakes and clean up after ourselves. We also hear from our dear friend Whit, who shares what it was like to feel cursed for being gay and how emotional trauma really led her down the dark path that eventually took her to rehab. How'd she finally get out of her own way and what tools did she use to do it? Come find out for yourself!

Resentment

"Resentment is like drinking poison and waiting for the other person to die"-UnknownResentment has been most commonly described as a multilayered emotion consisting of disappointment, anger, and fear. How do you deal with resentments? Are their such things as "justified resentments?"  We often hear that we don't have the luxury of resentments, but what do we do when we get them? In episode 7 Willy and Cameron talk about resentments; what they are, where they come from, and how to get past them. We also get an update on Neight and we share our first War Story from a listener!
