OPC 44: Healing The Crippling Fear and Anxiety of Feeling Your Feelings

The fear of change often shows up as resistance. For years in addiction, we create chaos, emotional turmoil, family strain and more. However, when we get sober, the fear of change can cause us to feel unsafe, retreat, and in turn create more friction when our lives depend on the change.

In this week's Omar Pinto Coaching Podcast, the group helped Michael. With fear running his life for the last number of years, he fears the change of becoming truly sober. As soon as he feels change start to set in, he retreats back to old behaviors and his party lifestyle. Creating chaos and distractions for himself, he recognizes that he is afraid to feel any emotions at all.

Tune in to learn how to pinpoint the root of your fears and implement effective coping strategies.
