In case you are wondering what the heck &#8220;odaat&#8221; stands for, it&#8217;s one day at a time, which is how we do this recovery thing, one day at a time!<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of the podcast is uncover the root causes and conditions of addiction and to reveal the ideas and solutions that lead to healing and long term recovery. I actually started the podcast out of a resentment to be honest. I heard Joe Rogan and his guest discuss a mutual friend&#8217;s alcoholism and their ideas about the disease were so uniformed it made me a little crazy that these ideas were being passed off as fact, so this is my attempt at a platform for us to tell our side of the story, and maybe educate the ignorant. So there you have it.<\/p>\n<p>In an effort to understand all paths to recovery, I invited my friend Michael Mason to the show. Michael shares how he was able to overcome his addiction to marijuana through a program called &#8220;Celebrate Recovery&#8221;, which is a Christian based program. I had heard of it, but really had no idea how their process works or how it compares to traditional 12 step programs.<\/p>\n<p>Michael also shared details of what life was like with a father who was extremely strict and neglectful and how it effected Michael&#8217;s self esteem and his siblings. I&#8217;m grateful to him for opening up and sharing his story and educating me and my listeners about Celebrate Recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Please enjoy this episode with Michael.<\/p>\n<p>Peace &amp; Love,<\/p>\n<p>Arlina<\/p>\n<p>Download as an MP3 by\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/traffic.libsyn.com\/odaatchat\/OC41_Michael_Mason_-_Sobriety_Through_Celebrate_Recovery.mp3\">right-clicking here<\/a>\u00a0and choosing \u201csave as.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"border: none;\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/6483385\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/autoplay\/no\/autonext\/no\/thumbnail\/yes\/preload\/no\/no_addthis\/no\/direction\/backward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/87A93A\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"90\" scrolling=\"no\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Or on iTunes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"itms:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/the-odaat-chat-podcast\/id1212504521\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-365 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/salespolish.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/subscribe-on-iTunes-300x101.jpeg?resize=300%2C101\" alt=\"subscribe-on-itunes\" width=\"300\" height=\"101\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Or on Google Play:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/2GrEZcd\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-777\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/odaatchat.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Screen-Shot-2018-03-14-at-8.48.07-AM.png?resize=298%2C79&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"298\" height=\"79\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This podcast is sponsored by Audible.
