About this episode
Most people think addiction is about lack of discipline. It’s not. It’s about trying to feel better and not knowing how.
In this episode, I explain why fighting urges makes them stronger, why “hunger” is something you can learn to tolerate, and how to redirect addictive impulses into behaviors that actually improve your life.
This is not about forcing yourself to suffer. It’s about learning how to use your psychology instead of fighting it.
