How the 12 Steps Can Change Any Life, with Ian Morgan Cron

from Mid-life Men: the mental health podcast · host Philip Briscoe / Ian Morgan Cron

In this episode, my guest is Ian Morgan Cron, bestselling author, psychotherapist, and Enneagram expert.  Most people hear “12 Steps” and think of Alcoholics Anonymous. But what if we told you this programme isn’t just for people struggling with alcohol or drugs? What if it could help anyone - including you - break free from unhealthy patterns, destructive habits, or even the little things that keep you stuck? Ian dives into what the 12 Steps are really about, why they work, and how they can be life-changing - even if you don’t think of yourself as an addict. Ian shares his own raw, honest journey with addiction and recovery, what finally made the 12 Steps click, and why they’ve become a blueprint for living with more freedom, purpose, and peace. We’re talking real, practical wisdom - letting go of control, facing your fears, rebuilding trust, and making peace with yourself (and others). No judgment, no clichés - just an open conversation about what actually helps people break free from whatever’s holding them back. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a pattern you can’t shake, this episode is for you.To find out more about Ian, visit his website: https://ianmorgancron.com/.  Ian’s latest book "The Fix - How the Twelve Steps Offer a Surprising Path of Transformation For the Well-adjusted, the Down-and-Out, and Everyone in Between," and his bestseller, "The Road Back to You – An Enneagram Journey to Self-Discovery," are available to buy from online book retailers.
