On The Lose Control Podcast, we explore what happens when we stop clutching for control... and start trusting the pull. Because life doesn’t just ask us to let go—it pulls us under. Into grief. Into love. Into silence. Into seasons that don’t make sense on paper but are perfectly designed to shape our becoming.
Submergence is the paradox: we sink in order to rise.
We dissolve in order to become whole.
The invitation isn’t to drown. It’s to surrender.
To be undone. Unnamed. Unraveled.
Because underneath the surface is where transformation gets real.
It’s dark there. Pressurized. Sacred.
But that’s the birthplace of peace—not the manufactured kind, but the raw, rooted kind. The kind that breathes under weight.
Lose control—not as defeat, but as initiation.
Because what if peace isn’t found in holding it all together…
but in letting yourself fall apart on purpose?
On this show, we don’t glorify drowning. We honor the dive.
We talk about the courage it takes to fall beneath the ego. To be still. To be stripped.
And to rise—not perfect, but honest. Not untouched, but transformed.
If you’re feeling like you’re sinking—good.
Maybe that’s exactly where your freedom begins.
Not above. But beneath.
Where control is surrendered
and the real you gets born.

Episode 33 Special Guest - A bunch of drunks "We, was the problem"
I must be willing to do whatever “anything” looks like to help another alcoholic. This means offering unwavering friendship and fellowship, and assuring him that if he genuinely desires to get well, I will do anything to support him on his journey. The bond we create is founded on trust, empathy, and shared experience. Pg 95
You can have what we have, no strings attached. However, this comes with the need for brutal honesty with oneself. You must be willing to change every pattern in your life and be consistent. Consistency is not about doing the same thing over and over, but about doing what needs to be done next. Implementing discipline is essential, and through this process, we transform each other by creating an intimate and supportive relationship.
We are powerless over alcohol and our lives have become unmanageable: This fundamental acknowledgment is the first step towards healing. Recognizing our powerlessness over alcohol and the chaos it brings into our lives opens the door to seeking help and change.
Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity: Embracing the belief in a higher power—whether it be a spiritual presence, a supportive community, or another source of strength—brings hope and guidance. This belief fosters a sense of purpose and direction in the recovery process.
Made a conscious decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God, as we understood Him: This step is about surrendering control and trusting in the higher power identified in Step 2. It involves making a profound commitment to follow a new path, allowing this higher power to guide our actions and decisions.
Through these steps, we embark on a journey of profound personal transformation, supporting each other and embracing the possibility of a better future. This process not only fosters individual growth but also strengthens the bonds of fellowship and shared recovery.
