What do alcoholics and non alcoholics have in common? A tendency toward escapism. Author and recovering alcoholic Jon Seidl details his descent into addiction, his Miami rock bottom moment, and the biblical keys to recovery. Jon also shares the childhood traumas that led to decades of toxic escapism, and offers tools for combatting escapism ourselves. This conversation also delves into phone addiction, marijuana, shame, the transformative power of EMDR therapy, and Adira's own sobriety journey.
