The steps for me worked in order to gain sobriety, and those same steps, no matter kind of what we substitute the addiction for, tends to run through again, whether it's around food, my sexual behavior, and just because, like I may have like a very active period of time where I'm having lots of sex or something like that, doesn't necessarily mean I have to check my motives.
What happens when sex and sobriety intersect? 'At The CCC' takes on this intriguing question in an episode that dives deep into the nuances of sexual relationships during recovery. Hosted by the lively trio of Anthony, Bonnie Violet, and Lou Lou, the conversation doesn't shy away from the tough topics. Joined by guest Josh, a recovering addict confronting toxic masculinity, they explore how addiction can shape sexual behavior and the challenges of maintaining healthy relationships in sobriety.
Josh shares his personal journey, revealing how the same steps that helped him achieve sobriety also guide him in other areas of life, from food to sexual behavior. The episode is packed with candid discussions about negotiating boundaries, creating sexual ideals, and experiencing pleasure while staying true to one's recovery journey. Listeners will find valuable insights into the role of trauma in shaping sexual experiences and the benefits and pitfalls of monogamy.
But perhaps the most powerful takeaway is the emphasis on open communication as a cornerstone for healthy sexual relationships. Whether you're navigating your own recovery or simply curious about how to balance sex and sobriety, this episode offers a supportive and enlightening perspective.
