 What is Human Design?
 
Human Design is a modern self-discovery system that combines elements from ancient wisdom traditions with contemporary science, including astrology, the I Ching, Kabbalah, and quantum physics. 
 
At its core, it creates a unique bodygraph or chart for each person based on their birth date, time, and location, similar to a natal chart in astrology. This chart reveals your "Type" (Manifestor, Generator, Manifesting Generator, Projector, or Reflector), which suggests your natural way of interacting with the world, as well as your "Strategy" and "Authority" - guidelines for making decisions that align with your authentic self. 
 
The system aims to help people understand their innate strengths, potential challenges, and optimal ways of navigating life and relationships.

Host: Elaine Skylar Neal
Guest: Chris Wilson
 
Returning to Your Center with Chris Wilson
 
In this episode of Sobertown Podcast, guest host Elaine Skylar Neal is joined by sobriety coach Chris Wilson. 
 
Chris is a fierce lover of the outdoors. He hiked the Pacific Crest Trail in 2016 and retreated to the Montana wilderness as he got sober from alcohol following an exceptionally high-stress career. 
 
After growing up in Southern California, Chris was living the life many people seek - he was climbing the ranks into wealth and status as an executive for a major international corporation - but his reality was starkly different. Drinking heavily and saddled with the crushing pressures of working a 24/7 365 days a year type of job, his alcohol use was intensifying and his life was progressing in a dangerous direction. 
 
Chris ultimately ditched his career, went on an adventure of a lifetime, focused on getting sober, and started practicing living life the way he wanted.
 
Today Chris is a life coach and specializes in Sobriety and ADHD, along with life transition and executive functioning. He works with people in recovery all across the world.

Host: Corinna
Guest: Loraine
 
Being the partner of a drinker
Come and join me, Corinna Alderton, as I talk to my friend of 48 years of her relationship with a drinker. In this frank and honest discussion you can hear the feelings and constraints of people in her position and the physical and emotional impact. It is also interesting to see the parallels in how a drinker feels and their significant others. The bonus for the drinker is, they are often numb to it all. I hope you will find this as insightful as I did. Keep focusing  on controlling the things you can and not resisting the things you cannot Www.sobertownpodcast.com

EP 356: Soberflex - O for Obsession

Host: Kevin Beaufrand
 
In the KNOWMERGE system, O stands for “Obsession”.
In today’s podcast, we will talk about how having a positive obsession with health can actually greatly benefit your recovery, your health, and your quality of life.
We will discuss how:
Seeking balance is overrated and can hurt you more than do you good.
Embracing a positive obsession with health can greatly enhance your recovery and quality of life.
Some people are ALL or NOTHING type of people, embrace this, don’t fight it!
We live in a world that is unfortunately toxic on many levels, therefore being obsessed with our health is the only way to truly thrive.
Enjoy and as always, FLEX that sobriety with pride!

EP 354: Shana Epps Recovery Story

Host: Drifter
Guest: Shana Epps
 
My name is Shana Epps and I am the CEO and founder of Controlled Chaos where I do sobriety and life coaching and host a podcast. I tried for almost two decades to get sober but kept relapsing. Even while working in the girls and trying to raise my daughters alone. I went through bad relationships, drug addiction, and alcoholism. I finally decided to move back to my home town and get my life together. The 12 steps are a huge part of my recovery but I also used the vivitrol shot. The vivitrol shot was a game changer for me. The last almost 3 years have been amazing and my goal from here on is just to help as many women as I can.
