In this episode of The Tyranny of Hope, West Breedlove explores the transformative journey of recovery from sex addiction, inspired by Dr. Patrick Carnes’ Why Treatment Works. Therapy is more than just talk—it’s a process rooted in neuroscience, guided by compassion, and designed to help individuals break free from addiction’s grip.
We unpack the six stages of recovery, from denial to acceptance, and discuss the critical role of detoxification, neuromodulation, and safe treatment environments. Along the way, we highlight the courage it takes to seek help and the life-changing breakthroughs that come with embracing recovery.
If you’re on this path or supporting someone who is, this episode offers insight, encouragement, and practical takeaways to help you move forward. Stay tuned for our resource recommendation and a message of hope to close the show.
