Episode 49: Who Am I Now: The Shiny Penny

Internal Title: You Were Never Anything Else After 48 episodes of digging up the past, naming the committee, and finding real tools — there's one question left. Who am I now? And the honest answer might be — fuck if I know. This week Gregg explores what happens when you stop reaching for labels. The old ones like broken, alcoholic, anxious. And even the new ones like healed or healthy. What's left when you strip all of it away? Turns out — nothing needed fixing in the first place. You were never the bug under the rock. You were always the shiny penny. Always have been. And then comes the part nobody warns you about. You find the penny — and you have no idea what to do with it. Next stop — what do I do with the penny? #TerrifcTuesdays #GettingBetterAtBeingHuman #RecoveryPodcast #Sobriety #WhoAmINow #ShinyPenny #AnxietyRelief #MentalHealth #SoberLife #YouWereNeverBroken #IdentityInRecovery #HealingJourney #RecoveryTools #NotBroken #AA #CopingStrategies

Episode 48 Coping Strategies_You Are Not Broken_You Never Were Told the Truth (Because it didn't exist)

In 1968, a kid lost his dad and had no name for what he was feeling. In 1972, he found the only solution available — Mad Dog 20/20 on a tennis court at twelve years old. In 1983, he got sober. In 1990, he finally got a diagnosis. And for the next thirty-six years, he fought every treatment the medical world threw at him while the anxiety kept hanging on. This episode is for the person still in the fight. The one searching at 2am for something that actually works. The one who has been told their whole life that something is wrong with them. Nothing is wrong with you. The truth just didn't exist yet. Now it does. #TerrifcTuesdays #GettingBetterAtBeingHuman #RecoveryPodcast #Sobriety #AnxietyRelief #CopingStrategies #YouWereNeverBroken #MentalHealth #NervousSystem #SoberLife #AnxietySupport #HealingJourney #RecoveryTools #Trauma #DSM #ScienceAndRecovery #NotBroken #GettingHelp

Episode 47: Go To Any Lengths: The Buzz I never Ordered

The buzz never showed up on a sobriety chip. It doesn't care how much work you've done or how many years you've put in. It just sits there — low, quiet, waiting. In this episode, Gregg gets honest about the one thing that hung on after everything else changed, and the unconventional tool he found at midnight while scrolling through an ad. Go to any lengths means any. Even the uncomfortable ones. Even the ones you'd never picture a guy with 42 years of sobriety trying. #TerrifcTuesdays #GettingBetterAtBeingHuman #RecoveryPodcast #Sobriety #AnxietyRelief #GoToAnyLengths #Hypnotherapy #AA #MentalHealth #SoberLife #HealingJourney #RecoveryTools #Mindfulness #BigBook #TwelveSteps #AnxietySupport #NervousSystem #SoberCommunity

Depression Is the Past. Anxiety Is the Future. Recovery or Not

What if the answer to your anxiety and depression has been on your finger the whole time? In this episode, Gregg breaks down one of the most powerful frameworks he's found in 42 years of sobriety — depression lives in the past, anxiety lives in the future, and the Serenity Prayer lives right now. Learn how a simple spinner ring cracked open a whole new way of breaking the spiral — and why the present moment is the one place the shitty committee cannot follow you. #TerrifcTuesdays #GettingBetterAtBeingHuman #RecoveryPodcast #Sobriety #AnxietyRelief #Depression #SerenityPrayer #AA #MentalHealth #Mindfulness #FutureTripping #SpiritualGrowth #RecoveryTools #PresentMoment #SoberLife #AnxietySupport #HealingJourney #Podcast

Episode45: Get Out of My Head-Eviction Notice to the Anxiety Creators

Episode 45: Get Out of My Head — Eviction Notice to the Anxiety Creators This one is raw. This one is real. This one is personal. Four weeks walking Dobson Park in 110 degree Arizona heat. A fractured foot. Twenty pounds gone. A high school sweetheart's four words that dropped him to his knees in the grass. And a yellow lab named Tucker who was the only reason he came home. This is the story of how Gregg found the shitty committee's conference room, picked up the sledgehammer, and served the eviction notice. It wasn't clean. It wasn't a movie moment. But he burned the table. And this time — he's finishing the job. Sometimes the most powerful tool against old thinking is a new picture — a conference room, a sledgehammer, and a fire. When you can see it, you can fight it. If you've been walking your own Dobson Park, this episode is for you. #TerrifcTuesdays #GettingBetterAtBeingHuman #GetOutOfMyHead #EvictionNotice #TheShittyCommittee #AnxietyRecovery #RecoveryPodcast #SoberLife #Sobriety #Anxiety #MentalHealth #DobsonPark #Tucker #RawAndReal #RecoveryCommunity #12Steps #Healing #PersonalGrowth #YouAreEnough #PickUpTheSledgehammer
