Several years ago I started a website titled Addiction Online Lifeline. I never thought it will one day become a Podcast station as well. I've included the link below.

The Addiction Online Lifeline Podcast focuses on:


Understanding addiction and the journey of recovery.
Digging deeper into the core underlying issues of addiction to: alcohol, smoking, narcotics, over-the-counter medicine, prescribed medicines, sex related addictions (including pornography, love addiction, sex addiction and more), gambling addiction, food addiction... 
Deep healing, Lifestyle change, Relapse prevention. 
The 12 Step programme "of Action" - via fellowship, tools for change, methods to sustain change, principles and practices of health & recovery... and much more.

Podcast segment: The Gift of Addictions - A walk through pain into healing
Today, 26 December 2020 I started out to voice some thoughts on my mobile recorder. I decided to turn this “odd” audio into the start of a new PodCast station in conjunction with my AOL website [Addiction Online Lifeline] on www.Anchor.fm | Please listen. I’m a little cautious if it is totally right for the general public and even for the addiction community and those affected by any form of addiction. But the risk is worth it. This goes out to 14 countries (today’s stats). 

Will it really help? Yes, I want it to! This message of "The Gift of Addiction" or "The Gift of a Mental Illness" has, over the past 20 years [since 2000] played a significant role in my own recovery and health - to the point that now publicly, I have a very wide reach to many countries and over 60,000 visits.

This podcast series is based on a Family programme I designed a few years ago. It was requested by an Outpatient Treatment Centre in Cape town. They wanted to orientate family and friends of the addict to get information and insight to help themselves and the person in recovery (during and after treatment). I designed a presentation and wrote a workbook which became the backbone to these podcasts. My book based on the workshop entitled: You Can't Live In The Dark - How to help a loved one with an addiction - is pending publication.
