Send us a textIn this episode of the Curious Neuron podcast, I chat with therapist Travis Goodman about the rising concerns around addiction. We explore the importance of compassionate curiosity when approaching conversations about addiction, the role of the nervous system in addiction, and the necessity of managing personal emotions when dealing with loved ones struggling with addiction. The conversation emphasizes the need for connection and vulnerability as antidotes to shame and isolation often associated with addiction. In this conversation, Travis Goodman, LMFT, discusses the critical role of connection in healing from addiction, particularly for men. He emphasizes the importance of building support systems, whether through therapy or community, and the need for safe spaces where men can express vulnerability and accountability. The discussion also covers navigating denial in loved ones struggling with addiction, setting boundaries, and the significance of changing the narrative around addiction to foster understanding and empathy.Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/FDUyGUYBH5QResources:Follow Travis on Instagram @integratedmanprojectJoin the next cohort of the Men's Collective with Travis herePrivate coaching or counselling with Travis hereIn the Realm of Hungry Ghosts: Close Encounters with Addiction hereEditorial: Human ConnWant to join Curious Neuron's Reflective Parent?
