RESET from Addiction (with Irene Rollins)

Is there something in your life you want to change? I sure hope so, because healthy people are always on the trajectory of learning, and growing, and healing.  Maybe it's your negative thinking that's keeping you stuck.  Maybe you find your emotions are overwhelming you with fear, hopelessness, shame, anxiety, or depression.  Maybe you're struggling in your relationship with God.  Maybe you're stuck in a pattern of unhealthy relationships.  Maybe it's behaviors that are sabotaging your life like an addiction or unhealthy habits.  It could be your attitude, your mindset, or your perspective on life that needs to shift.  Whatever it is - in order for change to happen, it has to start from the inside out.  My new book RESET is all about getting healthy from the inside out. It's a book of 31 practices that will guide you into the process of healing, by giving you practical steps that will transform your life with changes that last.   In honor of my new book, over the next few weeks, we're diving into different areas of your life that might be in need of a RESET.  We'll be talking through everything from unhealthy thinking, to your relationship with God, to your marriage, trauma history, body image, boundaries, and everything in between. We're going on a journey of resetting from our default mode, and learning to do it differently!  ___ In today's episode, I'm having an important conversation with Irene Rollins, pastor's wife and ministry leader, about her secret battle with alcoholism behind closed doors. Irene battled with addiction for six years before everything came to a head. Her story is eye-opening, because it reminds you of the dangers of hiding and escaping from pain instead of dealing with it. This conversation is so honest and necessary for any of us who might have some things in our life that are moving towards addictions.  Whether it's screen time, gaming, pornography, alcohol or a substance...addiction is subtle until it's serious.  It's time to RESET these different areas of our lives and heal from the inside-out.
