#066 Recovering from addictions, emotional handling skills, and forgiveness as a way to inner pea...

Dennis Berry is a certified life coach specialising in addiction recovery, alcoholism, and life mastery. He has gone from rock bottom to the top, back to the bottom, nearly dying many times, and back up to the top again. He is also a motivational speaker, a best-selling author, and the host of the "Funky Brain podcast". He has been clean and sober since 2003, and his mission is helping others kick their addictions and master their lives.


 


Key takeaways:


• Addictions: a temporary relief, a distraction for not wanting to feel

• Addictions are not just substances - they are behaviours

• Emotional handling and the coping skills we need to avoid "check out"

• Inner peace and making peace with your past

• Self-love, self-care, and self-respect


 


Memorable quote:


"When times get tough, stay the path. Be who you want to be, not what the world's idea of who you're supposed to be is. Follow your heart and your dreams, do what feeds your soul."


-Dennis Berry
