Episode #9 - Rewriting My Story: The Truth about Quitting

In this episode, I open up about my past cannabis use — the highs, the lows, and the inner work that helped me reshape my relationship with it. From personal stories to neuroscience and emotional healing, I explore what it means to choose growth over comfort. This is not about preaching — it’s about being honest, reflective, and real. Healing is never linear, but change is possible. Always.ReferencesHanley Foundation. “How Addiction Affects Children and Families.” Hanley Foundation, 17 Apr. 2025, hanleyfoundation.org/addiction-treatment/how-addiction-affects-children-and-families/?utm_term=addiction%20and%20family%20dynamics&utm_campaign=HF+-+Blog&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_acc=7840443534&hsa_cam=21288565658&hsa_grp=161935735839&hsa_ad=700243871511&hsa_src=g&hsa_tgt=kwd-505955749192&hsa_kw=addiction%20and%20family%20dynamics&hsa_mt=b&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ver=3&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=21288565658&gbraid=0AAAAADngh9EyVK_KHJptkdZYfqr-IhcZ3&gclid=Cj0KCQjwgIXCBhDBARIsAELC9ZgDshEC4s1UvxU37Ta4O-96_OEiN6d1UP7dyi1MsAJHmReFgyzFMNIaAvT4EALw_wcB.Konopka, Lukasz M. “Marijuana Use: Neuroscience Perspective.” Croatian Medical Journal, vol. 55, no. 3, June 2014, pp. 281–83. https://doi.org/10.3325/cmj.2014.55.281.Voss, Patrice, et al. “Dynamic Brains and the Changing Rules of Neuroplasticity: Implications for Learning and Recovery.” Frontiers in Psychology, vol. 8, Oct. 2017, https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2017.01657.
