Brian Cuban on Healing: From Self-Hate to Emotional Sobriety

The need for acceptance and a drive for self-love can be as destructive as a line of cocaine. It's an overpowering feeling that builds up in you, that you're not who you see in your reflection.
Ever felt like you're your own worst enemy? In this episode of 'Emotional Sobriety', hosts Allen Berger and Thom Rutledge sit down with Carol Carter and bestselling author Brian Cuban to explore the turbulent journey from self-hate to self-acceptance. Brian opens up about his struggles with addiction, eating disorders, and the harsh inner critic that once ruled his life. Through candid conversations, he reveals how therapy, support groups, and a hefty dose of self-compassion have been game-changers in his recovery.
The episode dives into the essence of emotional sobriety, a concept rooted in Bill Wilson's vision of surrendering unrealistic demands to find true inner peace. The hosts and guests also discuss how family dynamics can shape mental health and why self-compassion is crucial for healing. Whether you're battling addiction or simply looking for ways to be kinder to yourself, Brian's story offers a beacon of hope and practical advice.
Tune in for an episode filled with heartfelt moments, practical tips, and a message that recovery is possible.
