OC232 Joshua Tanner on Psychedelic Assisted Mental Health Therapy
This episode will be a little bit different than the usual format. Over the last 6 years of hosting the podcast I’ve had multiple guests talk about the use of psychedelic assisted therapy to treat their core issues that lead them to addiction. It seems like psychedelic assisted therapy is everywhere these days. The Today Show profiled a study done by NYU on how psilocybin was used to treat alcoholism. Netflix has a series called “How to change your mind” where many of the use cases profiled the use of psychedelics to treat mental health issues like depression, anxiety, PTSD, Trauma and Addiction. There is a lot to be learned but the evidence for transformational change is exciting. 
  My guest today is Joshua Tanner, a medical student at Stanford who has not only had one of these transformational experiences, but has plans to potentially open clinics in the pacific northwest to facilitate psychedelic assisted therapy.

OC230 Arlina Allen on Rebuilding Self-Esteem In Recovery
Hi Friend,
  Thank you for downloading the podcast, my name is Arlina, and I’ll be your host. 
  Well, kind of. This week we’re doing something a little different. My friend and fellow podcaster Mary Tilson interviewed me on The Sun & Moon Sober Living Podcast and today we’re talking about how to rebuild self-esteem after you get sober. 
  One thing I have learned over the 28 years I have been sober is that rebuilding self-esteem in sobriety is critical to healing. So many of us struggle with the guilt and shame that goes hand in hand with addiction, and it’s easy to get lost in the shame spiral, especially in early recovery. So today we’re going to talk about what healthy self-esteem is, why it’s important and things you can do right away to start healing.
  I also want to mention that if you are a woman in sobriety, and you would like more free resources for healing, book recommendations, meditations and a community of supportive women, then join us in our free private facebook group. Just do a search for: One day at a time private women’s group. I look forward to connecting with you personally!
  So there you have it! I hope you enjoy this special episode!

OC229 MJ on Recovery, the 12 Steps, Anonymity, and Common Misconceptions
Today my guest is my good friend Michael J. I met him years ago in my home group, and he always has great things to say. He teaches by example, he’s a student and scholar of the 12-step program and has a lot to share. 
  Michael is anonymous, so this week there’s no YouTube video or picture on the website. We’ll keep this one very mysterious. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did!

OC220 Alysse Bryson CEO of The Sober Curator on Addiction, Sexual Trauma, Healing and Helping Others
Today my guest is none other than the super fabulous Sober Curator herself, Alysse Bryson. If you’ve been listening to the podcast for any length of time, you know I love just about everybody, but hot damn, I’ve found another Soul Sister! 
  Alysse not only shares her story of alcoholism (or Alcohol Use Disorder as the cool kids call it) she also talks about the underlying causes, her moment of clarity that changed her perspective forever and all the ways that she helps others to end their suffering. Alysse has a focus on people in long term recovery, because let’s be honest, this is an ongoing process, not a single event.
  We also share some of the same concerns with “social media sobriety”, so we get into that as well. Whether you are new to the sober community or a long timer, I’d love to hear your thoughts on this as well. 
  Without further ado, please enjoy this episode with Alysse!
