    Nick TNT Terry is a certified life coach, breathwork practitioner, intervention consultant, and an author. He is the co-founder of Honu House Hawaii, a residential rehab facility in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii, and the owner of Breath of Life Recovery, a wellness consulting practice offering breathwork, cold water therapy and wellness modalities. Since getting sober in 2014, Nick has worked for more than eight years in the field of addiction and mental health treatment. Nick shares how he transformed from wayward addict to breathwork and recovery life coach, and offers his holistic, much-needed perspective on how others can do the same. Here’s what we get into: - Nick’s childhood in a tumultuous environment, with early access to alcohol and drugs.  - As Gabor Mate says, the roots of addiction are disconnection.  - Nick’s habit of dishonesty and criminal behavior as coping mechanisms. - Pivotal moments in his recovery journey that led him to seek long-term sober living.  - Transformative experiences with breathwork as a healing tool for trauma and disconnection. - For addicts in recovery: The importance of being present in the moment, even if it’s uncomfortable. - Nick describes how breathwork has helped him cultivate a sense of presence and connection that long eluded him.   Links: Honu House Hawaii Instagram Breath of life recovery Buy the book - Breath of life: Finding Long-Term Recovery with Breathwork and Stepwork Ben’s Freedom From Addiction Circle  The Arka Brotherhood See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    #92 - The Dance Of Partnership - Relationship Wisdom with Alison Armstrong

    Alison Armstrong has been teaching and speaking publicly about men and relationships for 3 decades. She is a thoughtful and inquisitive individual whose curiosity led her to a profound revelation about human behavior and relationships. Through her deep contemplation and examination of male development, she realized that men often react independently of women's influences, shaped instead by their developmental stages.  Her insights shed light on the misconceptions women might have, believing that a man's dedication to his career or personal goals could signify a lack of love. Alison's keen realization emphasizes that men and women's actions and priorities are influenced by different developmental needs, rather than personal affection or commitment. Her work aims to foster better understanding and communication between genders. In this episode, Alison and I explore the complexities of conflict resolution, emphasizing the importance of curiosity over false conclusions. We discuss the evolution of the men's movement, strategies for handling relationships, and the power dynamics between genders. Alison shares her own transformative experience of challenging negative perceptions of men and highlights the critical role of empathy and understanding in nurturing strong, healthy relationships. On this episode, we discuss: How men and women deal differently with emotions.- How women can get what they need while empowering men. How she became a champion for men, and a helper in relationships between men and women. Frog farming vs. discovering princes. Helping women understand stages of men’s development. How she learned to stop diminishing men, and how that changed her relationships. Ways that women justify disempowering men. Moving ‘from furious to curious’. Learning to improve communication. Dropping over-fixation on boundaries and leaning in with curiosity. Avoiding labelling each other. Being ‘pro-choice orgasm’ Tips on really listening to each other, and common traps of not listening. The importance of making friends outside your relationship. How her work has changed over the years. Her thoughts on different waves of feminism.
