Empower Your Recovery: Dr. Robert Schwebel's Seven Challenges

To the extent that people decide (for themselves) that they have a problem with drugs or alcohol-- not only are they NOT powerless (as AA and other 12-step programs might have them believe)
Imagine a recovery journey where you're not powerless, but in control. That's the essence of Dr. Robert Schwebel's 'Seven Challenges'. In this episode of the LPP Podcast, hosts Dr. Stanton Peele and Zach Rhoads sit down with Dr. Schwebel, a psychologist and author, to discuss his innovative approach to addiction management. Unlike traditional 12-step programs, the 'Seven Challenges' offer a non-step method that encourages self-agency and personal growth. Dr.
Schwebel believes that individuals can decide for themselves if they have a problem with drugs or alcohol and choose their path to a balanced life. The 'Seven Challenges' guide people through understanding their relationship with substances, developing supportive self-talk, and exploring new opportunities for change. Each challenge is designed to empower individuals to take responsibility for their actions without self-blame. Dr.
Schwebel's program also differentiates between various types of drug problems, helping listeners identify their specific issues and work towards solutions that matter to them. If you're looking for a fresh perspective on addiction recovery, this episode is a must-listen.
