The Imperfect Pod is a podcast for discussing masculinity more intentionally and purposefully. Masculinity is in a weird place in society as men try to understand the difference between toxic and healthy masculinity. This podcast will engage with humans of all ages, races, genders and beliefs to share their ideas of masculinity to try and create a better understanding. What I want to leave my listeners with after every episode is that there isn't this one-size-fits all idea of masculinity, nor is their an easy solution to understanding your manhood in today's landscape. Topics of this show include parenting, fatherhood, relationships, porn addiction, sex, gender, toxic masculinity, growth, addiction and much more.

73. Overcoming Alcoholism with Neuroplasticity and a No BS Attitude with Dr. Robb Kelly
How can men heal from their alcoholism? What can they do to get out of their shame and guilt? Why are men more at risk of not getting help for this problem? These are questions that we discuss at length in this episode.
Other key themes of the episode include:
Where his own alcohol dependency started
How DNA and genetics play into the issue of alcoholism
Self-sabotage in the recover cycle
Why anger and shame are two emotions that are harmful in healing
Changing your neural pathways
Why Macho culture is hurting men in the long run
The difference between a Friday night drunk and a Friday night alcoholic
Distinguishing the drinker from the alcoholic
Why visualization is a powerful tool in recovery
Alcoholism as a disease
The power of routine in recovery
His own story with family, drugs and alcohol
University life and drinking and why it's unhealthy
and much much more
About Dr. Robb: Robb has overcome homelessness, alcohol dependency, trauma, and a whirlwind of events to be the "Gordon Ramsay" of the addiction treatment world. Before Robb succumbed to addiction and mental health issues, he played bass guitar at Abbey Studio with Queen, David Bowie, and Elton John. He is an accomplished musician, and the money he made helped him attend Oxford University to pursue a Ph.D. in Psychology. Robb's work ethic is defined by helping the addict step out of their disease and into a solution. We work with everyday people, professionals, and celebrities who want to reach sobriety and live in sustained recovery through evidence-based modalities and a genuine therapeutic alliance. https://robbkelly.com/ (Website).
