    #004 - This Is What Six Months Clean Really Looks Like | Interfere Podcast with Eric Evans

    My guest today is Rafaella, a bright and deeply self-aware woman six months into recovery. In this episode, we talk about what it really feels like to rebuild your life from the inside out. Rafaella opens up about the emotional weight of grief, the traps of old patterns, and what it means to stay clean without going dry. This is not just about addiction. It is about growth, about showing up when everything feels overwhelming, and about learning how to be in relationship with yourself. We explore how therapy, community, and spiritual work come together — and how relapse is not always about using, but about disconnecting from the process. Rafaella shares her journey of breaking old cycles, finding service, and what she's discovering about intimacy, control, and the courage it takes to change for real. If you are stuck, or love someone who is, this episode will remind you that healing is not clean or linear — but it is absolutely possible. What we talk about in this episode: • Staying connected when the feelings are overwhelming • Avoiding a "dry" recovery by staying engaged • Recognizing and breaking lifelong patterns • The emotional toll of grief and therapy • Why intimacy is more than relationships • How spiritual growth unlocks real freedom If you are ready to change or know someone who is, visit https://ericevansinterfere.com/ or reach out directly.

    #003 - Addiction, Control, and the Fear of Asking for Help | Dameshia's Story

    My guest today is Dameshia, a powerful voice in recovery and someone I deeply admire. In this episode, we talk about what it really means to show up for your life when isolation feels safer, and how connection can be the thing that saves us, especially when it is genuine, messy, and honest. Dameshia opens up about the emotional extremes of early recovery, what it feels like to ask for help after years of self-reliance, and how simple acts like walking a dog or having a real conversation can become lifelines. This episode is about stepping into discomfort, learning how to sit in the truth, and finding your way out of suffering by being of service to others. We talk about the myths of control, the need for fairness, and the real role of community. Not as a fix, but as a path. Dameshia also shares how writing became a spiritual tool, and why she believes recovery is not about perfection. It is about persistence. If you are struggling, or love someone who is, this conversation reminds us that transformation is possible. What we talk about in this episode: • Navigating emotional intensity in early recovery • The power of connection and asking for help • Letting go of control and embracing fairness • Writing as a healing tool • Why being of service changes everything • How the recovery path redefines identity, purpose, and freedom If you are ready to change or know someone who is, visit https://ericevansinterfere.com/ or reach out directly.

    #002 - Leaving The Old Life Behind | Finding A New Way To Live Through Recovery

    My guest today is Miguel, someone I've had the privilege of coaching and now call a close friend. When we first met, Miguel was numb—stuck in the mindset and survival patterns that had defined his life for years. But what's happened since is a true transformation. Not just sobriety, but a new way of thinking, living, and showing up in the world. In this conversation, we dig into what it really takes to shift out of the old life—the chaos, the guilt, the lies we tell ourselves—and begin to build something real. Miguel shares honestly about what it felt like to question his own identity, how he started taking accountability, and what happens when you finally stop blaming the world and start choosing a different path. We talk about the emotions that don't get mentioned enough in recovery—guilt, revenge, self-betrayal—and what it means to take the high road even when the old instincts kick in. Miguel's now living clean, self-supporting, and working in treatment, helping others find their way out too. This is the work. It's messy. It's not always linear. But it's real. In this episode: The mindset shift that changed everything How Miguel started building a new identity from the ground up Living with intention instead of autopilot What real service in recovery looks like Why spiritual principles matter more than motivation This one's for anyone who thinks it's too late, who's still hearing the voice that says "you don't make it out of this life." Yes, you do. Miguel's proof. If you're stuck, if your loved one is struggling, or if you're looking for support beyond the surface, visit my website or reach out directly. We're here to interfere—in the best way. #recovery #addiction #interferepodcast #accountability #transformation #recoverycoaching #spiritualprinciples #healingjourney #truthhurts #servicework #newwayoflife #overcomingaddiction  ----- Connect with Eric https://ericevansinterfere.com/ https://www.instagram.com/ericevansinterfere https://www.facebook.com/ericevansinterfere https://www.tiktok.com/@UC5PsClqQFWFK4Tg-zi3_VXQ  Subscribe to the newsletter: https://ericevansinterfere.com/#email

    #001 - From Relapse to Resilience: Stephanie's Journey Through Recovery and Truth

    Welcome to Interfere. My guest today is Stephanie V, a close friend, former client, and someone I've had the privilege of walking alongside through one of the most powerful transformations I've witnessed in recovery. When we first met, Stephanie was stuck in a long cycle of relapse. She could stop drinking, but she couldn't stay stopped. What followed was a process filled with resistance, honesty, surrender, and ultimately, change. In this conversation, we talk about what it really took to turn things around. The moments that tested her, the mindset shifts that mattered, and the uncomfortable truths she had to face. This is not a story about doing it perfectly—it's about showing up, staying in it, and finding freedom through the hard work. Stephanie shares how her relationships began to heal, how her perspective on life shifted, and how she went from a place of constant survival to one of real connection. We also reflect on the role that coaching played, not as a magic fix, but as a tool to help her see clearly and commit to the path. If you're in it, or love someone who is, this episode is a reminder that healing is possible. You just have to be willing. What we talk about in this episode: The turning point in Stephanie's recovery Learning to surrender and take direction The importance of letting go of the scorecard Rebuilding relationships through action, not words How coaching helped reinforce the truth If you're ready to change or know someone who is, visit https://ericevansinterfere.com/ or reach out directly.
