    What if the very walls you’ve built to protect yourself are the same ones keeping you from the love and connection you desire? Join me, Tanya Shulnutt, on this heartfelt episode of Courageous Overcomer, where I open up about my journey through trauma, abandonment, and addiction. Discover how these experiences led me to construct emotional fortresses that, rather than safeguarding me, isolated me from the authentic relationships I craved. Together, we explore the reasons behind these barriers, such as fear of vulnerability and loss of trust, and how they often provide a false sense of security while keeping true joy at bay.

    In our continuing conversation, I share the challenging yet rewarding process of dismantling these emotional walls. Drawing from personal experiences and recovery principles from programs like AA and Celebrate Recovery, this episode offers practical guidance on healing and personal growth. Learn the crucial steps of admitting powerlessness, believing in a higher power, and conducting an honest self-inventory as we discuss paving the way to emotional freedom. With courage and intentionality, we can break down these barriers and restore our well-being, fostering genuine connections and leading lives filled with love and authenticity. Tune in for true stories and powerful tools to support you on this transformative journey.

    Send us a text

    Rich bravely shares his deeply personal journey of overcoming addiction, offering a window into the struggles faced by many who grow up feeling lost and disconnected. Reflecting on a childhood marked by divorce and the absence of a strong father figure, Rich discusses how the loss of his grandfather compounded feelings of inadequacy and led him to alcohol as a means of escape. His candid recounting of how experimentation in his teens spiraled into a battle with depression and hopelessness provides a poignant narrative of how childhood trauma can fuel addiction. This conversation aims to uplift and provide insights for those grappling with similar battles, particularly during the holiday season when emotions can be heightened.

    Transitioning into the realm of faith and healing, we explore how I personally used humor and anger to keep others at arm's length, only to realize the importance of moving beyond past regrets. This chapter delves into the role of Alcoholics Anonymous and the 12-step program in managing anxiety, often rooted in profound fears like the fear of death. By sharing how my relationship with my grandfather and spiritual teachings have influenced my own healing, we emphasize the importance of recognizing personal triggers and setting boundaries in social situations. Through self-awareness and faith, discover how to navigate life's challenges with resilience and hope.

    Finally, our discussion shifts to the transformative power of faith and unwavering perseverance. By placing trust in a higher power and seeking spiritual guidance, one can find healing and clarity even in the darkest moments. Through personal anecdotes, we illustrate how believing in a plan greater than our own can alleviate anxiety and instill a sense of purpose. We outline practical steps for those on a recovery journey, from acknowledging problems to fostering supportive relationships. This episode underscores the profound impact community and perseverance have in overcoming obstacles and nurturing a hopeful future.
