    It’s a lot of fun reminiscing with Anna, through this podcast, about the “early days” of recovery.

  • They went there

    Not a fan of the political commentary lately. And I’m not a Trump fan either. I just don’t really feel like listening to these women go off about it.

    They will be alienating a lot of their subscribers. After all, more than half the country voted for Trump. Very turned off

  • Decided to go political

    It’s a shame they brought their political opinion into a whole episode. This is about recovery not your heavy liberal views.

  • Recovery Rocks

    I’m so glad I found this podcast. I’ve been in recovery for almost 3 years and finding this podcast was perfect timing for me. I was longing reassurance that there’s more than one way to recover from alcohol abuse disorder - I need to carry recovery in my pocket. Thank you Tawny & Lisa

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Why Does Rehab Fail So Often? Ask Jimmie Applegate
Q: What would you tell someone about choosing treatment if they're entering a 30-day program?
He emphasizes that addiction is individualized, that not all patients respond to 30 days or one modality, and that recovery involves tailoring plans and integrating various modalities beyond traditional approaches.
Why Does Rehab Fail So Often? Ask Jimmie Applegate
Q: What did work for you in your recovery, and what didn't?
A combination of 12-step work, trauma-focused therapies (like EMDR), and newer modalities such as neuroscience-informed approaches to rewire the brain were crucial in his recovery journey; no single method was sufficient on its own.
Why Does Rehab Fail So Often? Ask Jimmie Applegate
Q: What is it like to have your book out in the world?
Jimmie describes the mix of pride and surrealism, acknowledging the work involved in promotion and the feeling of being recognized as an author, while noting that he's still figuring out how to respond to fans and sign books.
Hanging with the Former “Meth Queen” of Waikiki
Q: What does Nikki hope readers take away about recovery and motherhood?
She aims for readers to gain empathy for those with trauma, to understand the long road of recovery, and to see that healing can benefit families and future generations.
Hanging with the Former “Meth Queen” of Waikiki
Q: How did Nikki end up in Hawaii and get out of the drug life?
A combination of trauma, a plan to go to college, a relapse, and eventually being caught led to a turning point; cooperation with authorities and a push to change helped her exit the criminal world.
