    Why the Ritual of Drinking Matters (Even in Sobriety)

    Is it possible to have the "ritual" of a drink without the destruction of the alcohol? For many of us in recovery, the hardest part isn't just putting down the bottle—it’s losing the social spaces, the celebrations, and the rituals that usually come with it. That’s why I visited Beyond the Bar, an alcohol-free bottle shop that is changing the game for the recovery community. In this episode, I sit down with the owner to talk about: The Motivation: Why she felt compelled to open a shop dedicated entirely to non-alcoholic spirits, beers, and wines. The Community: How a bottle shop can actually be a safe haven and a tool for long-term sobriety. The Experience: Why the "ritual" of pouring a drink matters, and how these alternatives help people stay connected to their social lives without compromising their recovery. If you’ve ever felt like you had to choose between your sobriety and your social life, this episode is for you.

    The Power of Quitting the Negative and Relentlessly Pursuing the Pawsitive

    In this episode of Longterm, we’re back in Dallas for a conversation that is as heartfelt as it is heavy. We sit down with creator and podcaster Jessica Spawn to 'unbox' a story she has never shared quite like this before. Jessica takes us behind the scenes of her 'Season 1'—from the pressure of a stalking case and the isolation of COVID to the moment a 'switch flipped' with alcohol. She describes the terrifying 30 hours in jail that became her ultimate wake-up call and why she now identifies as an 'Action Taker' in her recovery journey. But this isn't just a story about the past. It’s about the '2.0 version' of a woman who is no longer numbing her life, but living it with purpose. We talk about the difference between a 'trauma bond' and true alignment, and why some connections are built for the long term. Subscribe to  @galontheprowl  For more from Jessica go to https://www.galontheprowl.com/ Key Takeaways: The Reality of the Slip: How external trauma can accelerate internal struggles. The Jailhouse Epiphany: The 30-hour period that changed everything. Living 2.0: Why sobriety isn't just about stopping, but about starting a new legacy. As Jessica said during the recording, 'We find each other'. This episode is proof of that."

    The Kidnapping of the Mind: Understanding Addiction

    In this conversation, Mark Astor discusses the profound impact of addiction on individuals and their families. He emphasizes the importance of understanding that those struggling with addiction may not be aware of their actions, likening it to a kidnapping of their brain. Astor highlights the necessity for families to commit to the recovery process, as individuals often cannot make the decision to seek help themselves. He outlines the critical role of family support and intervention in facilitating recovery. #addiction #recovery #familysupport #mentalhealth #intervention Welcome to Longterm where we discuss the journey of `recovery` from life's many challenges. This episode explores how to `bounce back` from both `internal conflict` and `external conflict`, especially when dealing with issues related to `law and order`.
