It doesn't have to be perfect, just has to be meaningful and has to be connected in the right kinds of ways.
Ever wondered how someone from the wild world of 'Jackass' could find genuine recovery? In this episode of the LPP Podcast, hosts Zach Rhoads and Dr. Stanton Peele dive into the rollercoaster life of Stephen Glover, better known as Steve-O. Famous for his outrageous stunts and antics, Steve-O faced serious battles with drug and alcohol addiction during his rise to fame. But his story doesn't stop there.
After going through a disease-based rehab, he managed to stay sober from substances, only to later grapple with a sex addiction. Steve-O's journey is a testament to the power of personal responsibility and finding balance. Rather than sticking strictly to abstinence, he discovered that forming healthy relationships was key to overcoming his sex addiction. Now a stand-up comedian and podcaster, Steve-O's life is an inspiring mix of moderation, harm reduction, and meaningful connections. Zach and Dr.
Peele discuss how Steve-O’s approach aligns with the LPP's philosophy of recovery, emphasizing that it’s not about perfection but about finding what works for you. They also touch on broader topics like harm reduction and anti-trauma theory, offering fresh insights into addiction recovery. Whether you're dealing with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable perspectives on finding purpose and meaning in the recovery journey.
