Reclaiming Control: The Freedom Model's Take on Addiction
When a guest will say to me: I want to stop, and the word want really really starts to get them into a solution oriented phase in their development, because what we want for ourselves is the only thing that matters, that's it exactly.
Do you feel trapped by traditional addiction recovery methods? This episode of 'The Freedom Model for Addictions' might just offer the fresh perspective you need.

Instead, it champions the notion that personal autonomy and a genuine desire for change can break the cycle of addiction.

If you're tired of the old narratives and looking for an approach that prioritizes your choice and responsibility, this episode offers valuable insights.
Plus, they share resources like free ebooks and online communities to help you on your journey. Tune in to discover how you can reclaim control over your life and break free from the addiction trap.
