Alex is a writer, executive coach, practitioner of somatic psychotherapy, and entrepreneur. He's the co-founder of Natura Care, a non-profit addiction program harnessing psychedelics. I’m also the founder of Sons of Now, a men’s group for the metamodern man. I came across his work when I was invited to be a part of the men's group that he runs, and we did a call together to see if we vibed. We did, and although I haven't joined that group (yet) we both knew we wanted to spend some time jamming on what interested us. So, here's an episode, like many others, where two of us go into earnest dialogue following what we think is interesting. We get into the landscape of modern addiction; phones, apps, porn, food, drugs and sex. We highlight the impacts this has had on children, young women, our relationships and our focus. We share some vulnerable stories of our own struggles with addiction and what we have done to deal. Alex guides me in a bit of a therapeutic process around my own experience around phone addiction and ultimately we leave you with some encouragement and tools for how you might maximize your own sovereignty.
