What We Really Want: Conversations About Connection
FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE to download new episodes as they release!
If it's true that "...the opposite of addiction is not sobriety...the opposite of addiction is connection," there are lots of people who need to discover what true, healthy connection looks like. Whether the struggle is with addiction, toxic relationship dynamics, or something else, we've all tried to meet our needs in unhealthy ways. Way too often, the things we run to for comfort leave us feeling even more disconnected and alone than before.
Through conversations about the many ways we can connect, we offer an invitation to discover and move toward what we really want, so we can live the lives we were created for.
Awaken (awakenrecovery.com) helps men and women whose lives have been wrecked by unwanted/addictive sexual behaviors and sexual betrayal trauma. We hope the podcast will help not only those struggling sexually, but anyone who seeks healthier ways of finding connection.

Stacey and I got to visit with HARRISON SCOTT KEY, a college professor, world-renowned speaker, and best-selling author of three books, including How To Stay Married: The Most Insane Love Story Ever Told." It's a humorous and heartbreaking memoir, recounting some of the most excruciating years in the life of Harrison and his wife. It's a beautiful story of a marriage facing adultery and the journey towards healing and redemption.
It's a raw, honest, wide-open conversation where we talked about the pain of infidelity and the frightening process of forgiveness.
