    Episode 7 - “Reviving Why I’m Still Alive”

    “In order to love those around us, we must first love ourselves. And loving myself began with taking time off… and realizing it’s okay to ask for help.” That line hit different when I said it out loud. I’ve been through relapse, burnout, withdrawals, guilt, and shame — but I didn’t give up. This episode isn’t just about what broke me. It’s about what rebuilt me.

    Episode 6 - The High Was Never The Point

    “The High Was Never The Point” 🎙️ I didn’t start using because life was good. I picked up because something inside me hurt too damn much to face. Substances weren’t a party—they were painkillers. Sobriety doesn’t erase those wounds… it turns the lights on. And when that happens, it feels raw, ugly, and overwhelming. But it’s not failure—it’s healing. This week on Real Talk Revival, I get brutally honest about: ⚡ The hidden trauma beneath addiction (the lowercase “t” wounds we ignore) ⚡ Why early sobriety feels harder before it gets better ⚡ The shame cycle—and how to break it ⚡ Six real tools to rebuild your life without numbing out This one is for anyone who’s ever wondered: “Why do I keep falling into the same patterns? Why can’t I just be okay?” You’re not broken. You’re not failing. You’re healing. 👉 Listen now on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, Podbean & Amazon Music. 🔗 Links in bio / realtalkrevival.studio Do me a favor—share this with someone who’s struggling this week. One “thinking of you” could be the thing that keeps them going. #RealTalkRevival #Sobriety #AddictionRecovery #Healing #MentalHealth #TraumaRecovery

    Episode 5 - "Right Here, Right Now"

    Life isn’t waiting for you to finish scrolling. It’s not slowing down until you’re “ready.” It’s happening right now — and you’re either living it… or letting it slip away. Today’s episode of Real Talk Revival is the wake-up call you didn’t know you needed: “Being Present Isn’t Procrastinating.” We’re tearing apart the lie that stillness is laziness. We’re talking about tech, hustle culture, ADHD, and the moments you don’t get back. And yeah… it’s going to hit deep.

It’s not comfortable—but it’s transformative. Because you still have time. And you don’t need a near-death experience to start living with purpose. This is your reminder: Death will come. Time will pass. But what you do right now—that’s what defines you.   -Rob.D
