    This is an awesome podcast. Never heard anyone talk so articulately, in depth & honest about feelings, thoughts & behaviours about addiction & the normality of a chaotic life.
    Truly inspiring 👌💯💯🙏Thankyou James & Africa 🙏💫Pure Gold💫🤗

    The two way honesty across the table is absolutely epic. So much has resonated. While many people get sober & talk about change, "doing the work" etc etc, alot of it is just talk.... I've always found James brutally honest about his past/flaws - never claims to have actually cracked it although it's plain to see the changes he has made & is still striving to do & be better... this is the first time I've listened to Africa & it's clear she has literally done a phenominal amount of work on herself, I've nothing but respect to anyone sober (or getting sober) especially those who recognise it to be or becoming an issue & get a handle on it while they are still young. Cracking interview xxx

      Feeling safe is freedom. There’s the work. Fabulous podcast. More of this please James, this is the best pod you’ve hosted. Africa has clearly done the work needed to find her 'True self'
      Anchoring to that part of ourselves is key.

      The comments sections can be rough at times. The safety of being behind a computer screen brings out the worst in some people imo.

    So much of this resonated with me, I'm still In the never ending cycle of working hard all week just to get f'd up on a weekend, go through the monday/tuesday depression and thoughts of never doing it again, to then feel better by the end of the week...
    "One drink this weekend won't hurt will it".... and the cycle continues...
    i've realised this was an issue from my early 20s but still at 35 I'm stuck doing it,
    I think you guys nailed it on the head with the comments about your social circle, most of my best friends/close family members are drinkers, we do have other things in common but the majority of our get togethers revolve around drink.
    It's a horrible thought when you know you may have to break away from them to be able to fix yourself.

    Why is it necessary for people to know who she is? I dont know who she is. I dont want to know who she is.The who they are people are often not worth knowing.And the Celebs crawl out of the woodwork. The Celebs are not from Zambabwe

    • @millop596
      @millop596 17 днів тому +1

      Exactly this!! People need to listen to message as there’s so much addiction now. It’s not about who she is but her story and message is powerful and can help others.

    She's practiced this persona over a prolonged period of time, but pretentiousness can't disguise the fact that she's rehearsed this. She doesn't come across as real or authentic. Who uses phrases like, seeking fulfilment or honouring the moment? Jargon.

From the annoying to the down right obscene but then again, he can do what he wants, but doesn't mean I can't have an opinion.
