Addiction: Problem, the Solution, and How to Work the Solution | The Problem Was Me with Tom Gagliano: Break the cycle of negative thinking leading to addiction, infidelity, & self-sabotage.

The Super Bowl is one of the most exciting events of the year in our country. Unfortunately, many lives will be destroyed by gambling excessive amounts of money and this will have devastating consequences. A gambling addiction, or any addiction, is so powerful that the addict forgets the pain it causes themselves, and those they love. The addiction feels like a form of oxygen to the addict where they emotionally feel they can't find happiness without it. Gambling becomes their coping mechanism to deal with the discomforts of life. This podcast will address why some can control there gambling and others destroy their life by gambling uncontrollably. We will discuss what creates all addiction, as well as the solution to not only stopping the addiction but also 'staying stopped'. It's difficult to understand any addictive disorder. It's like putting together a jigsaw puzzle and it's not easy to see how the pieces fit. In this podcast I will clearly demonstrate how each piece fits by discussing the Problem, the Solution, and how to work the Solution.

How To Create Healthy Boundaries and Stick To The Healthy Boundaries We Set Jan 07, 2025

Show notes

We will discuss the ways to create healthy boundaries in our lives, in the work place, as well as with our significant other, friends, parents, and children. We will discuss why it is importnat to understand the difference between selfishness and self-care when setting boundaries. This difference can be confusing if you come from a childhood that didn't model healthy boundaries between the caregivers in our own childhood. We will also discuss how to process uncomfortable feelings with others when boundaries are initially put into place. Learning that uncomfortable conversation, if communicated properly, will create a healthier environment for ourselves and those around us.

Another New Year...Another Failed Resolution! Dec 17, 2024

Show notes

"Is Your Subconscious Fear Causing You To Fail, Even Before You Try?" It happens this time every year. Many of us start the New Year with willingness, but seem to lose the zest within a few weeks or months. We set resolutions yet very few see them through, only 8 percent. Will this be yet another year where you make and then break your Resolutions? The truth is, if you make a New Year's Resolution again this year, you're setting yourself up for failure. It's not because you are a failure, it's simply because you're not addressing the real problem which is early childhood messages which connects to our adult fears and false pride. Until you do something different, you're going to get the same results, year after year. But don't beat yourself up, you're definitely not alone, let's work through this process together.
