-
- Mental Health
TRIGGER WARNING: this episode discusses numbers, pros and cons of gambling, and mentions thoughts of suicide.
Author, advocate, and person in recovery from sports betting, Joel Soper (author of Never Enough Zeros) talks about how he finally found peace after the exhausting “hamster wheel” of Gambling Disorder. Finding he could be more successful in life, relationships, and purpose through recovery than in “the chase for vicarious thrills” through gambling. He grants us a raw view of his life and struggles in the depths of gambling harm from the betting which took everything from him. As well as how he fought, and continues to fight, for freedom, purpose, and autonomy with a variety of healing strategies...including some unconventional means.
