Sacred Grit: Daily Tools and Spiritual Resilience for Men Determined to Beat Addiction
How This One Unexpected Thing Took Me From Suicide To Self Love And How It Helps Men Break Free From Addiction.
Show notes:
Brother — after my affair cost me my marriage, my ministry, and my kids’ trust, shame followed me everywhere. I carried it in my body, in my mind, even in the tattoo with my kids’ handwriting. I wanted to cut it off. It nearly drove me to kill myself. This episode is for the man who knows that weight.
You’re not weak for feeling that. You’re human. But you don’t have to live trapped by it. I found the thing that changed everything: nervous-system practices — cold water, breathwork, yoga, meditation — that taught me how to pause, think, and make gritty decisions out of self-love instead of shame. This is practical work that rewires your body so your mind can follow.
What you’ll get from this episode:
- A raw account of the moment shame almost ended me — and how I chose to fight back.
- Exactly why nervous-system training breaks the shame → relapse loop that keeps men stuck in addiction and bad choices.
- The simple, daily practices that give you the capacity to make the next right decision — again and again.
Why this matters to you:
If you’re tired of the cycle — the cravings, the apologies, the promises you don’t keep — these practices are the tools that actually change how you respond. They don’t erase consequences, but they let you live in your skin again, make reparations when needed, and rebuild with integrity.
Listen now. Start with one cold shower, three rounds of breathwork, and five minutes of meditation tomorrow morning. If you want a roadmap tailored to your mess, book a consultation (link in the show notes) — let’s see if we’re a fit and get you moving toward steady recovery and real spiritual resilience.
You’re one gritty decision away. Make it today.
