Charlie Smith's Path to Healing: Breaking Free from Addiction and Shame

In my experience, it's never not been worth it.And that's what separates the mediocre existence with the exceptional existences, when we push through those resistance points and say: it doesn't matter how I feel.
Ever wondered how someone can break free from the chains of addiction and shame? In this episode of 'OvercomeOutloud', Charlie Smith opens up about his personal battle with addiction and the heavy burden of shame that came with it. He takes us through his journey, sharing the raw and real struggles of early recovery and the steps he took to build a healthier self-image.
Charlie talks about the importance of aligning one's actions with their values and how visualization and positive reinforcement played crucial roles in his recovery. He dives into the concept of the inner critic versus the inner champion, illustrating this with the powerful Indian story of the two wolves. Through perseverance and determination, Charlie shows that it's possible to push through resistance and come out stronger on the other side.
This episode isn't just about overcoming addiction; it's about finding the courage to lead oneself first in order to lead others. Whether you're facing similar challenges or supporting someone who is, Charlie's story offers hope and practical advice for anyone on the path to self-discovery.
