Finding Your Vice: Michael Stoller’s Guide to Emotional Clarity

The true addiction is that people have no clue and are powerless over managing the feelings of anger, sadness, fear, guilt and shame. They have to then find a way to numb those feelings.
Ever find yourself reaching for that extra drink or impulse-buying those shoes you don’t need? In this episode of 'MY BLUEPRINT: Struggle Towards Emotional Sobriety', Michael Stoller digs into the idea of vices—those little habits we turn to when life gets tough. Michael opens up about his own temptation with a shiny new set of golf clubs, using it as a springboard to talk about how vices can sneakily take over our lives.
He believes that emotional sobriety isn’t just about quitting substances; it's about recognizing the ways we try to escape our feelings of anger, sadness, fear, guilt, and shame. Michael emphasizes the importance of facing these emotions head-on and finding healthier ways to cope. He also touches on the role of a higher power and the power of community in supporting those struggling with addiction.
With his usual blend of honesty and practical advice, Michael offers listeners a chance to reflect on their own vices and take steps towards a more emotionally sober life.
