I met Anna at her studio in Los Angeles where she records the AfterParty Pod. If I didn't insist on trying to keep the conversation close to 30 minutes we might still be talking.

She speaks on television and at colleges across the country on addiction and is on the board of The Peggy Albrecht Friendly House, the oldest women’s recovery house in the US.
In This Interview Anna and I Discuss...

The One You Feed parable.
Not knowing that we have a choice in how we feel and think.
Understanding that we have some control in our happiness.
How self obsession was making her so unhappy.
The difference between sadness and self-pity.
When to accept feelings and when to change them.
How hard it is to tell what we can change and what we need to accept.
How our default position tends to be negative.
Feeling bad about feeling bad.
The emptiness of acquisition.
The different paths to addiction.
Feeling that we need to take care of others emotions.
Not settling.
Always thinking that life is somewhere else in the future.
Fear of looking vulnerable.
Fostering cooperation instead of competition.
Despair and Compare.
Deciding to embrace the life we have.
Comparing our insides to other people's outsides.
How no one's life is perfect.
