Finding Peace: GiGi Langer Ph.D. on Overcoming Addiction and Embracing Love

Love doesn't come in through my personality or what I manufactured, or it's something it's a hard problem to describe.
Ever wondered how someone can turn a life of addiction into one filled with peace and love? In this episode of AllBetter, host Joe Van Wie sits down with GiGi Langer Ph.D., who opens up about her incredible journey from addiction to recovery. GiGi, once known as the 'Queen of Worry', reveals how she used alcohol, romance, and professional success to cope with her anxieties. However, quitting drinking was just the beginning of her transformation.
She discovered she had a 'thinking problem' that needed addressing. Through therapy, recovery programs, scientific research, and various philosophical and spiritual teachings, GiGi found tools to bring lasting peace and wisdom into her life. Now, she shares these tools in her book 'Love More Now'. This episode isn't just about GiGi's story; it's a treasure trove of practical advice on overcoming perfectionism, acknowledging pain, and embracing self-reflection.
You'll hear about the power of prayer and the importance of removing blockages to love. The episode wraps up with a meditation on keeping an open and vulnerable heart. If you're on a journey of recovery or know someone who is, this episode offers hope, practical tips, and a lot of heart. Tune in for a transformative conversation that could change your perspective on addiction and recovery.
