Roger Andes on Emotional Sobriety: Balancing Connection and Integrity

Fundamentally they're both concerned with emotional, psychological maturation and, to some extent, spiritual maturation.
Imagine trying to stay deeply connected to others while also maintaining a strong sense of self. It sounds like a tightrope walk, doesn't it? In this episode, Thom Rutledge and Dr. Allen Berger sit down with therapist Roger Andes to explore this very challenge. Roger, who specializes in body-oriented therapy, shares his thoughts on how we can cultivate meaningful connections without compromising our own integrity.
He dives into the intricate dance between being there for others and staying true to ourselves. Roger also highlights the crucial role of self-esteem in emotional sobriety, linking it to both psychological and spiritual growth. He believes that achieving emotional sobriety is about growing up emotionally and psychologically, but it’s no walk in the park. It involves confronting our inner battles and pushing through discomfort to focus on what truly matters.
The conversation also touches on how emotional sobriety helps us unlock repressed emotions like anger, sadness, and fear, leading to a more congruent and fulfilling life. While the journey is unique for everyone, the insights shared in this episode are bound to resonate with anyone striving for deeper emotional balance. Whether you're in recovery or simply looking to enhance your emotional well-being, this episode offers valuable perspectives on the path to living more authentically.
