    Adam Fout: The Whack-A-Mole Phenomenon—From Alcohol & Drugs to Food & Sex Oct 04, 2021
    Show notes

    When you restrict on one type of addiction, you must watch for another addiction to take its place. It's a widespread occurrence that most addicts can identify with. Taking away the drink, drug or relationship isn't the solution; it only stops the destructive behavior. It's what's underneath the addiction and addressing the "why" that we start to heal. Like many people, there were addictions like food and sex that preceded the alcohol and drug addiction that happened later and were first addressed. But the feelings and thoughts were still there. Adam Fout and Brianne discuss the phenomenon of cross addiction and how to find recovery from it.

    Amanda Montell - Groomed for Abuse: Love Bombing & Gaslighting Sep 27, 2021
    Show notes

    Love bombing is a common abuse tactic used by narcissists and sociopaths to manipulate situations to their advantage. It is the key gaslighting tactic in the Idealization phase of abuse, preceding the far more obvious Devaluation and Discarding stages. Amanda Montell innocently texted her friend’s older brother in Hollywood while she was in high school. What followed was a calculated and abusive relationship.

    Shane Michael Hatton: Secret Fertility Journey Sep 20, 2021
    Show notes

    What do we hold to be true for ourselves? How do those beliefs affect how we share, communicate and process situations that happen in our lives? If I believe that I’m supposed to have children, and I don’t, then I’m a failure. If I believe I’m supposed to have a specific career or look a certain way, but I don’t, am I a failure? Brianne and Shane look at our core beliefs and how we will keep secrets from others instead of sharing our journey. The willingness to be seen in grief, to allow others to care for you, is truly a gift.

    I Was A Paid Escort For Men In Hollywood Sep 13, 2021
    Show notes

    “Everybody has sex,” says Rue. “The only difference is that I charged for it.” Rue was a sex worker in her early 20s, working for the madam of Heidi Fleiss. Even though that life is far behind her (she’s married and an educator now), she still firmly believes in the decriminalization of sex workers. It's estimated that there are at least 1 million prostitutes in the United States and 40-42 million worldwide.

    David Linaker: A Priest's Affair — Guilt vs. Shame Sep 06, 2021
    Show notes

    Alexander Pope wrote, "to err is human, to forgive divine." Sometimes forgiving ourselves can be the hardest thing to do. Guilt is a feeling you get when you did something wrong or perceived you did something wrong. Shame is a feeling that your whole self is wrong. Releasing shame and guilt involves learning to empathize and forgive. When you can forgive and care for others, you'll learn to care for and forgive yourself. David Linaker is a shingling example of that truth. Change and freedom are possible. That's what we believe here at Secret Life.

    More about David Linaker

    After 21 years as a priest in the Church of England, during which time David fed a deep fascination with the human condition and received extensive training in coaching, mentoring, mediation and conflict transformation, David was delighted to be able to find an outlet for this in a coaching practice.

    David takes a ‘whole person’ approach to his work, from the standpoint of extensive experience of encountering most of the challenges that are thrown at people during a lifetime. It’s important for clients to feel fully comfortable with both the process and the outcome so that those outcomes are truly authentic and compelling.

    David finds a huge reward in seeing real liberation in the lives of his clients. Watching cognitive dissonances vanish and authentic lives emerge.
