Manage episode 447259752 series 2390664
Delanie Fischer is joined by Dr. Samantha Harte, author of Breaking The Circuit: How to Rewire Your Mind for Hope, Resilience and Joy in the Face of Trauma, to discuss perfectionism, addiction, and recovery. Dr. Harte shares how her accomplishments masked her struggle with addiction (like getting accepted into a postdoctoral program the very same day she overdosed on cocaine), why her rock bottom actually happened 5 years into sobriety vs. at the height of her addiction, and why she had to reimagine and modernize the 12 steps in order to successfully apply them to her life.
Plus:
+ The Most Important Amends That Addicts Might Ignore
+ Building A New Relationship With The Same Partner
