Ryan O Roy: Embracing Vulnerability and Finding Freedom

That to me means freedom from the narrative right, freedom from the story, freedom from the power that I think the story had to have over me to feel safe, which was upside down, because literally in therapy today I've been deep, deep, deep in this for years and years and years is an awareness that, for me, love and relationships mean pain and that on a whiteboard to a class, in front of a classroom without context, is counterintuitive.
What happens when you grow up in a household filled with addiction and abuse? For Ryan O Roy, it meant carrying trauma into adulthood, but also discovering the power of therapy and recovery. In this episode of The Fear Addict Podcast, hosts Mark Goff and Joshua Bitton sit down with Ryan, an accomplished screenwriter and president of a behavioral health consultancy, to discuss his remarkable journey.
Ryan opens up about losing his brother to drugs and how that devastating experience shaped his life. He shares how therapy transformed his feelings of loneliness into a newfound sense of freedom and community. Ryan talks about the importance of finding a safe space to be messy and surrendering to the process of healing. He also touches on his struggle with gambling addiction and the challenges of self-regulation.
This episode is a heartfelt conversation that highlights the beauty of seeing life beyond self-imposed boundaries and the power of awareness in overcoming addiction. If you're seeking inspiration or understanding, Ryan's story offers both in abundance.
