About this Episode:
Finding the Right Handle: Overcoming Addiction with a New Perspective
In this episode, host Max Roeck delves into the transformative power of perspective. Drawing on a memorable quote from Appetitus, Max discusses how every situation has two handles: one that makes it easy to manage, and one that makes it difficult. He shares the compelling story of journalist William Seabrook, who overcame debilitating alcoholism after committing himself to an asylum in 1933. By shifting his perspective, Seabrook was able to embrace recovery and find beauty in sobriety. Max encourages viewers to apply this wisdom to their own lives and reminds them that they too can choose a new, empowering handle for their challenges.
